Men with CF are Having Children!


 Paul J. Turek, M.D.
 Director, The Turek Clinic
 Emeritus Professor, UCSF
I read in one of the papers that couples can get
pregnant without sex. Is that true?


                       A patient, 1998

               CF and male fertility is an
               easier problem!

The CFTR Gene

The Gene: CFTR, located 7q31.2
          5T IVS8 (5T variant)
Function:   Encodes the cyclic adenosine
            monophosphate-regulated
            chloride channel in secretory
            epithelia
Problem:    1500+ mutations described

Wolffian Duct
Relationships
Congenital Absence of the Vas Deferens (CAVD)


 •Unilateral: most have no sperm counts
 •Bilateral: all have no sperm counts
 •Involves any segment of Wolffian duct
 •Seminal vesicle agenesis, cysts
 •Can have ejaculatory duct obstruction
 •Prostatic and utricular cysts
 •“Form fruste” of CF

   Testicular (TESA, TESE,

Obstructive Azoospermia

  Guideline: Least invasive, least damaging, best yield.

Since assisted reproduction (IVF-ICSI) does not have a
100% success rate, it behooves reproductive urologists to
develop and use sperm-retrieval techniques that are not
only reliable and of low morbidity, but that also have the
potential to harvest sufficient sperm to enable multiple
IVF-ICSI attempts without repeat surgery
                       Turek et al. Ass Reprod Rev. 1999, 9: 60-64
Epididymal sperm
• Microscopic/magnified epididymal sperm aspiration
     (MESA)
  – Open incision
  – Use of optical magnification
  – High yield
• Percutaneous sperm aspiration (PESA)
  – No incision
  – No magnification
  – Low yield
Microscopic Epididymal Sperm
     Aspiration (MESA)
The Mini-MESA
•Local +/- sedation          •Mean 2 pain pills
•1-2 hours                   •Recovery 1-2 days
•6-10 million moving sperm   •<1% complication
•Freeze-all approach         •1% need repeating




       Nudell et al. Hum Reprod 1998, 13:1260
Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration
                 (PESA)

Testicular sperm

• Testicular sperm extraction (TESE)
   – Open incision
   – High yield
• Percutaneous sperm aspiration (TESA)
   –   No incision
   –   Low yield
• Percutaneous biopsy of testis
   – No incision
   – Moderate yield
   – Risk for hematoma

Men With Cystic Fibrosis Are Having Children!

  • 1. Men with CF are Having Children! Paul J. Turek, M.D. Director, The Turek Clinic Emeritus Professor, UCSF

  • 19. Obstructive Azoospermia Guideline: Least invasive, least damaging, best yield. Since assisted reproduction (IVF-ICSI) does not have a 100% success rate, it behooves reproductive urologists to develop and use sperm-retrieval techniques that are not only reliable and of low morbidity, but that also have the potential to harvest sufficient sperm to enable multiple IVF-ICSI attempts without repeat surgery Turek et al. Ass Reprod Rev. 1999, 9: 60-64
  • 20. Epididymal sperm • Microscopic/magnified epididymal sperm aspiration (MESA) – Open incision – Use of optical magnification – High yield • Percutaneous sperm aspiration (PESA) – No incision – No magnification – Low yield
