Molecular screening of CFTR gene in Brazilian men with bilateral agenesis of the vas deferens.

Human fertility (Cambridge, England) - 1 Mar 2006

Bertuzzo Carmen Sílvia, Pinto Walter

Abstract excerpt

Infertility is a common symptom of cystic fibrosis, especially in men (95% become sterile). It is caused by blockage of the vas deferens and the epididymis, which result in degeneration of the tubules. The purpose of this study was to verify the frequency of CFTR gene mutation in patients with bilateral agenesis of the vas deferens using SSCP and sequencing. The study population consisted of 40 white individuals...
