Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine if there is a relationship between various forms of partial AZFc deletions and spermatogenic failure. DESIGN: Case-control study. SETTING: Infertility clinic (Tenon Hospital, Paris). PATIENT(S): 557 men, comprising 364 infertile men from mixed ethnic backgrounds, and 193 men with known fertility (n = 84) and/or normospermic (n = 109). INTERVENTION(S): Characterization of 32 partial AZFc...
