Effect of varicocele on chromatin condensation and DNA integrity of ejaculated spermatozoa using cytochemical tests

21 Jul 2008

Abstract excerpt

Varicocele occurs in approximately 15% to 20% of the general male population and it is the most common cause of poor semen production and decreased semen quality. It has been demonstrated that patients with varicocele have a significantly higher DNA fragmentation index (DFI) and spermatozoa with nuclear anomalies than healthy fertile men. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate sperm chromatin integrity...
