Methods: In this paper, we report five males with oligoasthenozoospermia or azoospermia with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss in partnership in four cases. R-banding karyotyping and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis were performed and showed sSMC in all five cases. Microdissection and reverse-FISH were performed in one case.
