Our data suggest that varicocelectomy can improve human sperm DNA integrity in infertile men with varicocele. These data represent the first report of improved sperm DNA integrity after therapy and further support the beneficial effect of varicocelectomy on human spermatogenesis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
