The impact of varicocelectomy on sperm DNA fragmentation and pregnancy rate in subfertile men with normal semen parameters: A pilot study.

: To evaluate the outcome of microscopic subinguinal varicocelectomy on sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF) and pregnancy rate in men with normal semen parameters. : A pilot study that included male patients with a minimum of a 1-year history of male subfertility, normal semen parameters, a high percentage of SDF, and clinically palpable varicoceles. Microscopic subinguinal varicocelectomy was carried out for 45 patients (study group), while 40 patients had no intervention (control group).

Management of long segment anterior urethral stricture (≥ 8cm) using buccal mucosal (BM) graft and penile skin (PS) flap: outcome and predictors of failure.

Purpose: To evaluate the surgical outcome and predictors of failure of substitution urethroplasty using either dorsal onlay buccal mucosal (BM) graft or ventral onlay penile skin flap (PS) for anterior urethral stricture ≥ 8cm.

Patients And Methods: Between March 2010 and January 2016, 50 patients with anterior urethral stricture ≥ 8 cm were treated at our hospital. The surgical outcome and success rate were assessed.
