Spermatogenic failure 81(SPGF81)

MedGen UID:: 1840965
•Concept ID:: C5830329
•: Disease or Syndrome

Synonym:	SPGF81

Gene (location): Gene(s) directly associated with this condition or phenotype.	TEKT3 (17p12)

Monarch Initiative:	MONDO:0859522
OMIM®:	620277

Definition

Spermatogenic failure-81 (SPGF81) is characterized by male infertility due to oligoasthenoteratozoospermia. Patient spermatozoa exhibit acrosomal hypoplasia as well as detachment of the acrosome from the sperm head, and also show markedly reduced progressive motility (Liu et al., 2023) For a general phenotypic description and discussion of genetic heterogeneity of spermatogenic failure, see SPGF1 (258150).

Clinical features

From HPO

Male infertility

MedGen UID:: 5796
•Concept ID:: C0021364
•: Disease or Syndrome

The inability of the male to effect fertilization of an ovum after a specified period of unprotected intercourse. Male sterility is permanent infertility.

Etiology

Novel variants in helicase for meiosis 1 lead to male infertility due to non-obstructive azoospermia.
