Failure of artificial insemination of husband's semen in the treatment of male infertility.

In the management of infertility, in case semen quality is found insufficient and could not be improved by medical means, handling the available spermatozoa in the most beneficial way has been aimed. Thus, artificial insemination with low quality semen has become a therapeutic alternative. In this study homologous artificial insemination has been used to treat infertility caused by oligoasthenospermia. Eighteen couples have been treated for 58 cycles by intrauterine or paracervical insemination using cervical cups. During the same period 42 cycles with timed vaginal intercourse have been assessed. Though no pregnancies could be obtained following artificial insemination, one pregnancy occurred during no-treatment cycles.

Urodynamic evaluation in spinal cord injuries.

Spinal cord injury, regardless of its level, causes flaccid paralysis during the shock phase affecting the detrusor and rectal musculature. Then, depending on the level and severity of the lesion, the bladder gains spasticity or remains flaccid. Monitoring the reflex behaviour of detrusor and sphincter activities helps to select the treatment modalities. Thirty patients with cord injuries of various levels have been urodynamically tested at 3-month intervals. The shock phase of the acutely tested patients lasted about 8-9 weeks. Eventually, 23 of the cases were hyperreflexic, while 7 cases remained areflexic: 2 had detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia. The response to treatment has been investigated by cystometrographical and electromyographical methods.
