| Male Phenotype |
In vitro clinic: Very low epididymal sperm concentration, many sperm have abnormally shaped heads or no heads, sperm tails are short or curled, no sperm motility, no IVF success. Histology evaluation: Abnormal spermiogenesis (see 1) characterized by abnormally shaped spermatid heads and abnormal tail morphology. Publication: Lessard C, Lothrop H, Schimenti JC, Handel MA.
