Prevalence of Y chromosome microdeletions in infertile men who consulted a tertiary care medical centre: the Münster experience

29 Jan 2001

Abstract excerpt

The long arm of the human Y chromosome is required for male fertility. Microdeletions in three different regions of the human Y chromosome, designated AZFa, AZFb and AZFc, respectively, are frequently associated with male infertility. The varying frequency of Y microdeletions found in cohorts of infertile men (0.4-55.5%) is probably related to the criteria by which the patients are selected. We report the...
