Intrauterine insemination with washed capacitated sperm cells in the treatment of male factor, cervical factor and unexplained infertility. 1989

R T Mansour, and G I Serour, and M A Aboulghar

One hundred and fourteen couples with long standing infertility due to male factor, cervical factor and unexplained infertility were admitted for therapeutic trials with intrauterine insemination of washed, capacitated husband's sperm cells between May 1986 to October 1987 at The Egyptian IVF-ET Center, Cairo, Egypt. Three hundred and sixty-four trials were done (an average of 3.19 trial per patient). Fifty-eight patients got pregnant (16% pregnancy rate per trial). This simple and noninvasive procedure can be considered as an alternative treatment for infertility due to male factor, cervical factor, and unexplained infertility.

D013081	Sperm Motility	Movement characteristics of SPERMATOZOA in a fresh specimen.

D013094	Spermatozoa	Mature male germ cells derived from SPERMATIDS. As spermatids move toward the lumen of the SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES, they undergo extensive structural changes including the loss of cytoplasm, condensation of CHROMATIN into the SPERM HEAD, formation of the ACROSOME cap, the SPERM MIDPIECE and the SPERM TAIL that provides motility.
