Gene deletions in an infertile man with sperm fibrous sheath dysplasia
24 Jun 2005
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Asthenozoospermia may sometimes be related to genetic structural defects of the sperm tail detectable by transmission electron microscopy. Dysplasia of the fibrous sheath (DFS) is a genetic sperm defect, characterized by dysplastic development of the axonemal and periaxonemal cytoskeleton. We report the case of an infertile man with normal sperm count and total sperm immotility in which dysplasia of...
