Abstract
With a view to ascertain the possible etiology fo the morphological abnormalities seen in spermatozoa of semen from genital tract infections, 16 semen samples were studied. Samples were selected on the basis of each of them having 10-12 pus cells per high power field. Apart from routine semen analysis, the sperms were subjected to electron microscopic studies. Alterations in the ultrastructure of spermatozoa and non-spermatozoal constituents of the infected semen samples were studied. The possible etiology of a wide spectrum of abnormalities in semen found to be associated with genital infection is discussed.
