Abstract

Current clinical evaluation of male factors poorly predicts assisted reproductive technology outcome. Sperm DNA fragmentation is useful. More advanced analysis of sperm structure and genetics could better assess male reproductive competence.

Keywords: Male factor; centriole; infertility; semen analysis; sperm DNA fragmentation.
