Andrology: Results of 55 intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles in the treatment of male-immunological infertility

Abstract excerpt

Antisperm antibodies present in the semen can be a primary cause of infertility. If the proportion of spermatozoa carrying antisperm antibodies is very high, then usually a poor result ensues in standard in-vitro fertilization. We therefore employed intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in 55 cycles (37 patients) where the proportion of antisperm antibody-bound spermatozoa was 80% or higher, as determined by...
