Testicular sperm aspiration and intracytoplasmic sperm injection for persistent infection of the ejaculate.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To report the successful use of testicular sperm aspiration and intracytoplasmic sperm injection in the presence of an Escherichia coli-infected ejaculate that previously caused repeated embryo degeneration. DESIGN:Case report. SETTING:University medical center. PATIENT(S):A 38-year-old woman who did not conceive for 6 years with repeated IVF attempts. Escherichia coli was isolated from both the oocyte culture dish and her male partner's ejaculate. INTERVENTION(S):Testicular sperm aspiration and intracytoplasmic sperm injection followed by ET. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):Clinical outcome. RESULT(S):Establishment of a pregnancy delivered at term. CONCLUSION(S):Patients undergoing IVF treatment who have repeated embryo degeneration caused by bacterial infection originating in the ejaculate may be treated successfully with testicular sperm aspiration and intracytoplasmic sperm injection.
