Abstract
Introduction: 45,X/46,XY mosaicism is a rare anomaly in sexual differentiation, presenting with diverse phenotypes and often leading to infertility due to abnormal gonadal development.
Aims: This report aims to present a case study of a 45,X/46,XY mosaic male patient with an ejaculatory disorder attributed to seminal vesicle dysplasia.
Methods: In this case study, diagnostic procedures encompassed blood tests, semen analysis, chromosomal examination, and imaging studies to assess gonadal morphology. Treatment strategies included attempted varicocelectomy, pharmacological intervention with amoxapine, and surgical testicular sperm extraction. Additionally, the patient underwent assisted reproductive techniques, specifically intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), to facilitate pregnancy for his wife.
Results: A 32-year-old man could not ejaculate, with post-orgasmic urinalysis revealing minimal sperm presence. Chromosomal analysis confirmed 45,X/46,XY mosaicism. Despite undergoing microsurgical varicocelectomy for clinical varicocele and receiving tricyclic antidepressants, no improvement in semen volume occurred. Imaging studies indicated ejaculatory disorder due to prostate and seminal vesicle aplasia. Consequently, surgical retrieval of testicular sperm was performed, leading to successful pregnancy via ICSI for his wife.
Conclusion: Our approach has effectively addressed ejaculatory disorder in 45,X/46,XY mosaic men, resulting in successful pregnancy.
期刊介绍:
Sexual Medicine is an official publication of the International Society for Sexual Medicine, and serves the field as the peer-reviewed, open access journal for rapid dissemination of multidisciplinary clinical and basic research in all areas of global sexual medicine, and particularly acts as a venue for topics of regional or sub-specialty interest. The journal is focused on issues in clinical medicine and epidemiology but also publishes basic science papers with particular relevance to specific populations. Sexual Medicine offers clinicians and researchers a rapid route to publication and the opportunity to publish in a broadly distributed and highly visible global forum. The journal publishes high quality articles from all over the world and actively seeks submissions from countries with expanding sexual medicine communities. Sexual Medicine relies on the same expert panel of editors and reviewers as The Journal of Sexual Medicine and Sexual Medicine Reviews.
