Mechanisms and effects of male genital tract infection on sperm quality and fertilizing potential: the andrologist's viewpoint

1 Sept 1999

Abstract excerpt

There are several mechanisms acting in synergism that can impair sperm characteristics of patients with accessory gland infection. In some cases, conventional sperm variables are disturbed with oligo and/or asthenozoospermia. In other patients, these sperm variables may appear normal, but the functional capacity of spermatozoa may be impaired. In particular, changes in the composition of the sperm membrane may...
