“…Eleven STS markers chosen from deletion intervals 5 and 6 on the long arm of the Y chromosome were amplified in four multiplex PCRs (data not shown). Ten of the eleven markers are located within the AZFa, AZFb, AZFc, and AZFd regions (Kent-First et al 1999). No deletions were found in any the 118 patients, including patients 1 and 2.…”

“…It is important to note that a negative Y-chromosome microdeletion assay does not necessarily rule out a genetic abnormality, because there may be other, presently unknown, gene sequences on the Y or other chromosomes that might also be necessary for normal spermatogenesis. Conversely, it has been shown that some Y-chromosome microdeletions may be found in fertile or subfertile males who have fathered children (23,27). Y-chromosome analysis should be offered to men who have nonobstructive azoospermia or severe oligospermia prior to performing ICSI with their sperm.…”

“…Söhne von Männern mit Mutationen in diesen Bereichen erben die genetische Problematik, sodass auch bei ihnen mit Störungen der Spermatogenese zu rechnen ist. Kürzlich wurde darüber hinaus ein weiterer Abschnitt charakterisiert, dessen Bedeutung noch unklar ist [15]. Ein Screening hinsichtlich AZF-Mutationen wird in allen Fällen mit Spermienkonzentrationen unter 5 Mio./ml empfohlen [30].…”
