abstract = "Prevalence of Y chromosome microdeletions in infertile men with severe oligozoospermia in Serbia: Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and type of microdeletions of the Y chromosome of men with severe oligozoospermia-ICSI candidates in the Serbian population and to compare our findings with those from other parts of the world. Methods: In all patients spermiogram has been performed in order to determine the sperm concentration. Patients were subjected to detailed clinical, endocrinological and cytogenetic examinations. Microdeletion analysis was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on 203 patients with normal cytogenetic findings. The STS markers tested in each case were sY84, sY86 (AZFa); sY127, sY134 (AZFb); sY254, sY255 (AZFc). Results: at least one of the STS markers was deleted in I I of the 203 cases (5.4 %). Conclusion: AZFc microdeletions were identified with a rather high prevalence in men with severe oligozoospermia ICSI candidates in Serbian population.",
