The cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator gene and male infertility.

Journal of endocrinological investigation - 1 Nov 2000

Quinzii C, Castellani C

Abstract excerpt

Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is a relatively frequent cause of male infertility accounting for 1-2% of cases of male sterility and at least 6% of cases of obstructive azoospermia. In the last decade a genetic basis for CBAVD has been provided by its association with cystic fibrosis (CF) and nowadays CBAVD is in most cases considered to be a mild or incomplete form of CF disease. Many...
