We evaluated the transrectal echo patterns in 140 infertile men using the following parameters: the transverse and anteroposterior diameters of the prostate, the presence of periprostatic venus plexus, and the transverse diameter of the seminal vesicles. Patients were classified according to data gleaned from semen analyses following the criteria recommended by the WHO. Microbiological analyses using the Meares and Stamey technics, as well as semen analyses, were performed in those patients who presented with leukospermia. These were considered a separate, homogeneous group classified as "inflammatory". The following patient groups comprised the study: azoospermia (18 patients), oligospermia (4), astenozoospermia (43), oligoastenozosermia (48), and inflammatory (27). Statistical analyses of the ultrasound data for the infertile males and those of the control group were performed using the Mann-Whitney U. test and compared. Data were statistically significant for the following parameters: the transverse diameter for the infertile males with azoospermia, the anteroposterior diameter of the prostate for those patients with leukospermia, and the periprostatic plexus for those in the oligoastenozoospermia and inflammatory patient groups.
