Abstract excerpt

The detailed analysis of the Y chromosome in men with azoospermia or severe oligozoospermia has resulted in the identification of three regions of the long arm of the human Y chromosome, termed AZFa, AZFb and AZFc, (AZF: AZoospermia Factor) that are currently deleted in men with otherwise unexplained spermatogenic failure. Screening for these deletions is now common in many infertility centres and in some...
