[Observation of some semen parameters in men with varicocele].

Among 172 examined male patients varicoceles have been found in 57.6% patients. The frequency of varicocele appearance increased according to the fall of sperm concentration. Simple relations between sperm motility and varicocele have not been observed. Larger per cent of pathological sperm forms in patients with varicoceles has been shown. In patients with varicoceles three times as frequent appearance of richer periprostatic and periseminnal blood vessels have been observed in comparison with patients without varicocele.

[Level of zinc and magnesium in semen taken from male partners of married infertile couples].

There was a preliminary study performed on the differences of zinc and magnesium levels in semen serum from 46 males from the infertile couples. Zinc and magnesium concentration was measured by the use of atomic absorption spectrophotometer. There was no statistically significant differences noticed between the mean concentration of zinc and magnesium in normal and pathological semen serum. Zinc and magnesium levels did not show correlation with the volume of the sperm and with the percentage of pathological forms. Whereas in the cases with the pathological spermiograms there was positive correlation revealed between the concentration of zinc and magnesium and the quantity of spermatozoa in 1 ml along with the negative correlation with the percentage of motile spermatozoa.

[Varices of the spermatic cord and endo-sonographic changes of urogenital organs in men with decreased values of certain sperm parameters].

A comparative analysis was carried out of sperm cell density, proportion of mobility and viability, and the proportion of morphologically abnormal sperm cells in 80 (74.6%) men with varices of the spermatic cord and 88 (52.4%) men without the varices. A significant shortening was observed of the viability time od the sperm cells, measured by the ability to maintain motion, in 57.5% of sperm samples from men with varices of the spermatic cord and in 39.8% of sperm samples from men without the varices. The shorter viability time was correlated with lower sperm cell density (20 million/ml) in the sperm samples. In endosonographic examinations performed at the same time, a coexistence was observed of varices and endosonographic changes in the prostate, seminal vesicles, and in a small proportion in the testicles. The coexistence of endosonographic changes and the varices was more frequently associated with decreased sperm cell density. The usefulness was demonstrated of sonographic examinations in the diagnosis and treatment of impaired fertility in men.

[Some routine test parameters of semen taken from the male partner of infertile couples and the state of the urogenital tract (prostate, seminal vesicles, testicles, epididymis) examined by ultrasound].

The authors investigated 214 men with endorectal and percutaneous scrotal sonography. These men were treated for the reason of sperm defects. The age range was 22 to 52 years. They were married for 2-10 years and infertile. The sperm was defected in respect of low percentage of motility (< or = 50%) and vitality and increased percentage of morphological abnormalities. The paper is an attempt to find the correlation between the sperm vitality and the frequency of prostate, seminal vesicles, testes and ejaculatory ducts defects. These correlations were particularly evident in sperm samples with decreased sperm concentration (1-20 mln/ml). The authors suggested the usefulness of the finding in treating the male infertility.
