[Identification of mutation and polymorphic changes in the CFTR gene of patients with obstructive azoospermia].

Abstract excerpt

Obstructive azoospermia is one of the symptoms of congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD)--disease which is suggested as primarily genital form of cystic fibrosis. CBAVD is a result of mutations and polymorphisms in CFTR gene. We studied 9 the most common mutations and identified 3 mutations (delta F508, R117H, G542X). The study showed that: 37.1% of CBAVD patients (13 out of 35 examined...
