View clinical trials related to Azoospermia.
Filter by:This study will include cryopreserved sperm from infertile azoospermic men, with proven diagnosis of varicocele (clinical & sonographic), which will be used for ICSI in an ART program in Sohag. Patients personal and medical history and socio-demographic data will be retrieved from their saved medical files.
Azoospermia is defined as the complete lack of sperm in the ejaculate. In humans, Azoospermia affects about 1% of the male population and may be seen in up to 20% of male infertility situations. In testicular Azoospermia the testes are abnormal, atrophic, or absent, and sperm production severely disturbed to absent. FSH levels tend to be elevated (hypergonadotropic) as the feedback loop is interrupted. The condition is seen in 49-93% of men with Azoospermia. The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of bone marrow derived stem cells to differentiate into germ cells and their role in treatment of testicular Azoospermia
Azoospermia due to low sperm production (non-obstructive azoospermia) affects approximately 1% of the male population and 10% of men who seek fertility evaluation. Testis biopsy reveals that these men have Sertoli cell-only pattern, maturation arrest, or hypospermatogenesis. Until recently, it was assumed that men with non-obstructive azoospermia were untreatable. Indeed, these patients were often referred to as being "sterile" or having "testicular failure." We start to use stem cell in treatment of such patients by injecting the stem cell at the testis and the testicular artery in one group and at the testis only in other group
Bicycle riding is associated with related diverse urogenital symptoms ranging from genital numbness to erectile dysfunction (ED). Very little is known about the quality of sperm in cyclists and whether a connection exists between erectile dysfunction and azoospermia.
