General Information of Disease (ID: DIS2U2A0)

Disease Name Spermatogenic failure 5
Synonyms
macrozoospermia; infertility associated with multitailed spermatozoa and excessive DNA; SPGF5; infertility associated with multi-tailed spermatozoa and excessive DNA; male infertility due to macrozoospermia; male infertility due to large-headed multiflagellar polyploid spermatozoa; male infertility with large-headed, multiflagellar, polyploid spermatozoa; macrocephalic sperm head syndrome; spermatogenic failure 5; spermatogenic failure type 5
Definition
Male infertility due to large-headed multiflagellar polypoid spermatozoa is a male infertility due to sperm disorder characterized by the presence, in sperm, of a very high percentage of spermatozoa with enlarged head, irregular head shape, multiple flagella, and abnormal midpiece and acrosome. It is generally associated with severe oligoasthenozoospermia and a high rate of sperm chromosomal abnormalities (polyploidy, aneuploidy).
