Transmission of a Y chromosomal deletion involving the deleted in azoospermia (DAZ) and chromodomain (CDY1) genes from father to son through intracytoplasmic sperm injection: Case report
1 Institute of Reproductive Medicine and 2 Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of the University, Domagkstr. 11, D48129 Münster, Germany
The transmission of a deleted in azoospermia (DAZ) deletion from a severely oligozoospermic patient to his son following intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment is reported. The case report highlights the fertilizing capacity of spermatozoa carrying Y chromosome deletions in patients treated with ICSI and stresses the importance of genetic counselling in severe male infertility.
Key words: DAZ/CDYa/ICSI/microdeletions/Y chromosome
