Erkek
faktör infertilite, tüm infertil çiftlerin yaklaşık olarak %30’unu
oluşturmaktadır.

 Bu çalışmada erkek faktör infertilitenin nadir
bir sebebi olan 45,X0/46,XY  mozaik
karyotip yapısına sahip azospermisi olan olguyu sunmayı amaçladık.

Hastanın,
fenotipik olarak, skrotum, testis volümü, penisi ve sekonder seks karakterleri
normal bir erkek görünümündeydi. Hastaya mikrodiseksiyon yöntemiyle testiküler
sperm ekstraksiyonu yapıldı, fakat her iki testistede spermatozoa tespit
edilemedi.

İnfertilitenin
etiyolojisi değerlendirilirken, azospermisi olan erkeklerde fenotip normal olsa
dahi karyotip anormallikleri göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır.

The male
factor infertility account for approximately 30% of all infertile couples. In
this study we aimed to present a rare cause of male factor infertility, a case
with 45, X0/46, XY mosaic karyotype and azoospermia. The patient phenotypically
appeared as a normal male with normal scrotum, testis volume, penis and secondary
sex characteristics. Testicular sperm extraction with microdissection was
applied to the patient but no spermatozoa was detected in both of testicles.

Karyotype
anomalies should always be considered 
during the evaluation of the infertility associated with azoospermia
even when the patient is phenotypically normal.
