Retrospective clinical study. In Vitro Fertilization Unit, Bikur Cholim Hospital, Jerusalem, Israel. Twenty men with psychogenic anejaculation who underwent 55 sessions of electroejaculation and their spouses. Electroejaculation, assisted reproduction technologies. Semen analysis, IVF, intracytoplasmic injection (ICSI), fertilization rates, and pregnancy rates. In all patients, sperm density and motility rates were unsatisfactory (98 +/- 127 x 10(6) with 14.6% +/- 15% motility in the antegrade portions and 42 +/- 42 x 10(6) with 9.7% +/- 15.6% motility in the retrograde samples). Intrauterine inseminations performed in eight couples did not result in a pregnancy. Four couples underwent IVF-ET treatments. Two pregnancies were achieved with overall success rates of 22% per cycle. Five couples were treated using the ICSI procedure. Although go...
