Abstract

An analysis of numerical anomalies of chromosomes 13, 18, 21, X, and Y was carried out using the FISH method before in vitro fertilization in the sperm nuclei of patients with astheno-, oligo, and teratozoospermia. The percentage of aneuploid spermatozoa was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in patients with oligozoospermia compared to patients with astheno- and teratozoospermia. A significant difference in the percentage of spermatozoa that carried a cytoplasmic droplet was revealed in patients with a content of aneuploid sperm of more than 1.0% and less than 0.2%.
