Successful combination therapy with electroejaculation and in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer in the treatment of a patient with neurogenic anejaculation / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

Recent case reports of the successful application of electroejaculation techniques for seminal emission and subsequent pregnancies have offered promising fertility alternative for the men with neurogenic anejaculation. The success of his program requires multidisciplinary couple-oriented therapy combining both turologic and gynecologic infertility therapy. However, despite obtaining often normal numbers of spermatozoa. sperm motility rarely exceeds 10-20% in electroejaculation sample. Therefore, realistic potential for pregnancy with intrauterine insemination technique is extremely low. In this report we present the first domestic successful coordination of both electroejaculation and in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer in a neurogenic anejaculation patient with severe oligoasthenospermia.
