The aim of this study is to detect qualified in vitro insemination techniques in the treatment of the severe oligoasthenotheratospermia which is defined as total motile count in the pretreatment samples (< 5 x 10(6) with > 50% of abnormal morphology). These patients have taken part in the in vitro insemination program of the Assisted Reproduction Unit of the 2nd Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Rome University "La Sapienza" during a period between June and December 1995. Several modifications of the standard in vitro techniques have been developed such as: mechanical decumulation of the oocytes, reduction of the volume of culture medium, increase of spermatozoa and oocyte concentration at the moment of insemination. A good fertilization rate was achieved (33%) as regard to the semen sample and procedures utilized. Twelve Ets were performed and 4 clinical pregnancies (25% per patients and 33% per transfer) were achieved. These data demonstrate that by the modification of standard laboratory methods for in vitro insemination, a good fertilization rate and a high clinical pregnancy rate can be achieved in cases of severe male factor infertility without having to resort to micromanipulation techniques.
