Conditions with this feature

Spermatogenic failure 2
MedGen UID:
400056
Concept ID:
C1862459
Finding
Spermatogenic failure-2 (SPGF2) is characterized by male infertility due to azoospermia (Tang et al., 2020; Akbari et al., 2021). For a discussion of phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity of spermatogenic failure, see SPGF1 (258150).

Concept ID:
C2751317
Disease or Syndrome
Spermatogenic failure 13
MedGen UID:
862886
Concept ID:
C4014449
Disease or Syndrome
Any azoospermia in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the TAF4B gene.
Spermatogenic failure 14
MedGen UID:
862891
Concept ID:
C4014454
Disease or Syndrome
Any azoospermia in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the ZMYND15 gene.
Spermatogenic failure 15
MedGen UID:
934746
Concept ID:
C4310779
Disease or Syndrome
Any azoospermia in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the SYCE1 gene.
Spermatogenic failure 77
MedGen UID:
1824018
Concept ID:
C5774245
Disease or Syndrome
Spermatogenic failure-77 (SPGF77) is characterized by male infertility due to extreme oligozoospermia or azoospermia. Nearly all spermatozoa present on semen analysis are morphologically abnormal, with amorphous, enlarged, and/or fragmented heads, and some are multiflagellated. Testicular tissue shows arrest at the round spermatid stage (Wyrwoll et al., 2022). For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of spermatogenic failure, see SPGF1 (258150).
