Impact of varicocoelectomy on male semen parameters: A long‐term analysis of sperm quality and outcomes

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Varicocoeles are common in 40% of men presenting with infertility. Semen parameters including sperm motility, low sperm count and sperm morphology are altered by the presence of varicocoeles. Though varicocoelectomy has been associated with improvements in these parameters, studies on long‐term outcomes are limited.

Modified cytoskeletal and extracellular matrix composition in the canine testis after long‐acting gonadotropin‐releasing hormone agonist deslorelin treatment

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Long‐acting gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists are commonly used for fertility control in male dogs. Their effect on testicular histomorphology has not been clarified. Objectives To elucidate the mechanisms underlying androgen withdrawal in response to long‐acting GnRH agonist deslorelin 4.7 mg treatment on testicular ...
