Methods: Ninety azoospermic patients with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (BAVD, n=58) or bilateral caudal epididymal obstruction (BCEO, n=32) requesting for fine needle aspiration (FNA), PESA and IUI were recruited. The obstruction was diagnosed by vasography and determination of the fructose, carnitine and alpha-glucosidase levels in the seminal fluid. Results: The mean sperm motility, density, abnormal sperm and total sperm count of the caput epdidymis were 16 %±22 %, (12±31) ×106/mL, 55 %±36 % and (16±14)×106, respectively. In the 90 couples, a total of 74 PESA procedures and 66 cycles of IUI were performed. Three pregnancies resulted, including one twin pregnancy giving birth to two healthy boys, one single pregnancy with a healthy girl and another single pregnancy aborted at week 6 of conception. The pregnancy rate per IUI cycle was 4.5 %. Conclusion: The birth of normal, healthy infants by IUI using PESA indicates that the caput epididymal sperm possess fertilization capacity. The PESA-IUI programme is a practical and economical procedure for the management of patients with obstructive azoospermia.展开更多
目的:分析不同生精功能障碍的无精子症患者行ICSI后其胚胎发育潜能。方法:149例患者分为生精功能正常组,轻度、中度和重度生精功能障碍组,采用经皮附睾精子抽吸术(PESA)或经皮睾丸精子抽吸术(TESA)抽取不同生精功能障碍患者的精子行ICSI...目的:分析不同生精功能障碍的无精子症患者行ICSI后其胚胎发育潜能。方法:149例患者分为生精功能正常组,轻度、中度和重度生精功能障碍组,采用经皮附睾精子抽吸术(PESA)或经皮睾丸精子抽吸术(TESA)抽取不同生精功能障碍患者的精子行ICSI,记录和分析胚胎的正常受精率、卵裂率、优良胚胎形成率以及妊娠率。结果:PESA与TESA组比较,正常受精率(%)为74.9±19.6 vs 66.3±22.7(P>0.05),卵裂率(%)为96.7±8.6 vs 92.8±19.8(P>0.05),优良胚胎率(%)为43.5±26.2 vs 35.0±29.4(P>0.05)以及妊娠率(%)为44.0 vs 52.0(P>0.05),均无统计学差异。生精功能障碍从正常组到重度组的正常受精率(%)变化依次为77.8±18.4、68.4±18.5、73.5±19.8、51.4±27.9,其中轻度生精功能障碍与正常生精组有差异(P<0.05),重度生精功能障碍组与其他各组有统计学差异(P<0.05);胚胎卵裂率(%)变化依次为96.7±9.2、96.5±15.0、93.9±12.1、93.7±11.1,各组无统计学差异;优良胚胎率(%)变化依次为47.1±25.8、40.3±27.6、36.2±23.1、15.0±24.6,重度生精障碍组与其他各组有统计学差异(P<0.05);妊娠率(%)依次为54.8%、50.0%、13.6%、10.0%,有统计学差异(P<0.05)。结论:采用PESA或TESA行ICSI在正常受精率,卵裂率,优良胚胎率以及妊娠率上较均无明显差异。随着患者生精障碍程度的加重,受精率、优良胚胎率以及妊娠率均显著下降,而卵裂率却无明显区别。展开更多
