Clinically affected cystic fibrosis (CF) patients present a spectrum of genital phenotypes ranging from normal fertility to moderately impaired spermatogenesis and congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD). Little is known about the CF incidence in the Taiwanese population. It has been shown that the CBAVD in men without clinical evidence of CF is associated with a high incidence of mutated CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) alleles. In order to understand the involvement of the CFTR gene in the aetiology of Asian/Taiwanese male infertility, we screened the entirety of the CFTR gene in 36 infertile males with CBAVD.
