Abstract: According to data suggesting that in
males with leukocytospermia, infertility is more prevalent, a study according
to exiting data, extracted from registers of infertile patients referred to
"Kowsar center for infertility" was done, for determining of
leukocytospermia prevalence and comparing it in patients with spinal cord
injury (SCI) and those without SCI. In 410 cases of infertile males, 171 and
239 sperm grams from patients with SCI and those without SCI were studied,
respectively. Existence of SCI and number of WBC HPF in semen registered in a
data chart. In patients with SCI is almost all of patients there was a higher
number of WBC HPF than normal (> 0-1) - (eg. Leukocytospermia) 87.1% which
the highest was> 50 WBC HPF (32.7%) and then 1 -5 WBC HPF (15.2%). In
patients without SCI, 57.8% were in normal range of WBC in semen (0-1 WBC \r
HPF) (eg no leukocytospermia) and 26.8% had 1-5 WBC HPF. There was a
significant difference between prevalence of leukocytospermia in these two
groups.
