Spermiogrammuntersuchungen bei Morbus Crohn-Patienten

Abstract

In 29 men with Morbus Crohn sperm density was less than 20 MIll/ml in 14 cases. There was a lack of motility of spermatozoa in 19 cases and 26 cases Spermmorphology was pathological. Although the LH-and Testosteron-levels were normal, we found decreased FSH-levels in six cases. Seminalplasmafluid was pathological in 10 cases. According to the guidelines of Eliasson for estimating semen qualities, 21 were severe pathological, 4 were pathological and 4 doubtful. We discussed the different etiological possibilities of Morbus Crohn and their possible influences on spermatogenesis.
