Les premières castrations furent incontestablement celles d’Osiris par son frère Seth et d’Uranus par son fils Cronos. Les Egyptiens pratiquaient la castration comme punitions des adultères. Les Hébreux l’abom...
La chronicisation de la douleur peut apparaître comme une énigme, puisqu’elle peut persister après un traitement somatique efficace.
L’analyse de 1132 tentatives de FIV montre comment le taux de récolte détermine la fiabilité de l’estimation de l’échec de fécondation. L’étude de 64 couples ayant réalisé plusieurs tentatives dont une au moin...
La situation de la fécondation assistée avec sperme épididymaire est revue dans son ensemble. Les indications ainsi que les techniques de prélevement sont détaillées. Une revue la plus complète possible des ré...
With the exception of forensic medicine and psychiatry, medicine has not historically been substantially influenced by sexology. After Freud and psychoanalysis grappled with sexual facts, a sociological phase ...
A pharmacological oral treatment has been systematically prescribed for one month in 110 unselected impotents patients: Trazodone (75 mg/d) associated with Moxisylite (180 mg/d), + Trazodone (25 mg) and Moxisy...
The erectile phenomenon is scientifically described since the early 19 th century. During the last 10 years, new methodologies in experimental and clinical approaches added further details to our knowledge on ...
Penile erection is a muscular and vascular event mediated by the autonomic nervous system. The neurophysiology of erection remains poorly understood and controversial, requiring a suitable model for in-vitro s...
The transurethral micro-wave heating of benign prostatic hypertrophy is going to be evaluated in our country. The French Urological Association is coordinating that work, the conclusions of which will be given...
Some causes of infertility can be prevented, as is the case for infertility of infectious origin. Genital infections represent a major source of infertility. Prostato-epididymitis consecutive to an urinary inf...
Sub-zonal insemination (SUZI) was evaluated, in a randomized prospective study, as a treatment for certain specific types of male factor infertility. Patients were classified according to the results of an ext...
In-vitro fertilization (IVF) using spermatozoe aspirated from the epididymis can be considered in cases of congenital or acquired epididymal obstruction. In these particular conditions sperm maturation seems t...
Surgical recovery of spermatozoa from the vas deferens is a simple and reproductible treatment for men with ejaculatory failure. After washing on a Percoll gradient spermatozoa can be used for in vitro fertili...
Human seminal plasma glycerylphosphorylcholine (GPC), glycerylphosphorylethanolamine (GPE), citric acid (Cit) and lactic acid (Lac) were analzed by measuring the peak area of proton nuclear magnetic resonance ...
Between February 1989 and March 1991, eight patients (mean age 32 years) presenting with azoospermia or severe oligozoospermia underwent a testicular biopsy to investigate their secretory or excretory origin. ...
Although LH undoubtedly remains the major factor controlling testicular androgen production, there is increasing evidence for the existence of a complex network of paracrine and autocrine intratesticular facto...
Brief psychodynamic or interpersonal therapeutic techniques, which were developed mainly in the UK and USA, are either derived from psychoanalysis or are closely related to it. The use of standardized methods ...
The authors have reviewed their management of 220 patients presenting with retarded ejaculation or psychogenic anejaculation between 1973 and 1992. There are three current management approaches: mechanical tre...
Twenty-five patients who had received a penile prosthesis between 1982 and 1991 responded to a postal follow-up questionnaire. Some men reported pain, urinary problems, loss of penile sensitivity, discomfort a...
Erection and ejaculation can be induced by two forms of stimulation. The first is mechanical: touching of the penis, scrotum and anus stimulates the pudendal nerves and a reflex erection appears via the parasy...
Local mechanisms causing penile erection and detumescence result from variation in tone of vascular and trabecular smooth muscles and in a lesser part of striated muscles around the crura penis. All these even...
The management of posterior urethra injuries is still subject of controversies. Some authors recommend primary or deferated emergency repair operation, while some others wait for about three months and repair ...
The use of transmission electron microscopy in clinical andrology is complicated by problems of classification and interpretation related to the extraordinary pleomorphism of human spermatozoa, even in fertile...
The molecular analysis of clinical syndromes involving androgen insensitivity has been facilitated by the availability of increasingly powerful molecular biological techniques. Complementary DNA of the androge...
Following overviews of the structure of DNA, the organization of the human genome, and a description of the process of gene transcription, the second part of this review considers the principal molecular biolo...
Some causes of infertility can be prevented, as is the case for infertility of infectious origin. Genital infections represent a major source of infertility. Prostato-epididymitis consecutive to an urinary inf...
A litterature review reports the spermatotoxicity of the different antineoplasic therapies. Recovery of spermatogenesis after completion of most toxic treatments and its delay are individually unforeseen. Preg...
Our knowledge of gamete interaction in vitro and in vivo has grown rapidly over the last century. Its importance has been reinforced by the development of in vitro fertilization and assisted conception procedu...
The basis of cognitive therapy is an analysis of the way an individual thinks and perceives in order to analyse what will affect his feelings and behavior. The patterns of thoughts will determine in which way ...
The biochemical analysis of seminal plasma provides information on the functional status of the male accessory glands. A semen analysis evaluates the relative contribution of these various secretions as well a...
It is now possible to evaluate each specific function of the spermatozoon by diagnostic testing. These tests, which are correlated with the outcome of male factor IVF, are unnecessary in routine practice. Howe...
Numerous animal studies have shown that elevated testicular, scrotal or ambient temperature induces alterations in spermatogenesis that reduce fertility. In this study, fertilization rate and embryonic mortali...
Because spermatogenesis is typically normal in men with bilateral agenesis of the vas deferens, epididymal sperm recovery for subsequent use in in-vitro fertilization (IVF) has recently been proposed for such ...
Normal sexual development in man is the consequence of a complex process. This review focuses on the translation of genedal sex (XX or XY karyotype) into gonadal sex (testis or ovary). During the last three ye...
Although the existence of heat exchange between the testicular artery and the adjacent veins is well known, it may be insufficient to maintain the lower temperature of the testis. In order to investigate the r...
