Abstract

Polyorchidism is an uncommon congenital condition often discovered incidentally, which may significantly impact male fertility. We present a case of a 34-year-old man with unilateral polyorchidism and associated severe asthenozoospermia and teratozoospermia. Despite normal hormonal levels and no detected genetic anomalies, the patient's sperm showed mitochondrial damage, and his fertility remained compromised after conservative management and assisted reproductive attempts. This case underscores the intricate relationship between polyorchidism and male infertility, highlighting the need for personalized management strategies and further research into its etiology and impact.

单侧多睾症伴严重男性不育:病例报告。
多睾丸症是一种不常见的先天性疾病,往往是偶然发现的,可能会严重影响男性的生育能力。我们介绍了一例 34 岁男性单侧多睾丸症病例,患者伴有严重的无精子症和畸形精子症。尽管患者体内激素水平正常,也未发现遗传异常,但其精子却出现线粒体损伤,经过保守治疗和辅助生殖尝试后,其生育能力仍然受到影响。本病例强调了多睾症与男性不育之间错综复杂的关系,突出了个性化管理策略和进一步研究其病因和影响的必要性。
