Abstract

The ultrastructure of highly abnormal spermatozoa from an infertile man is described. Nearly all cellular elements were completely deranged, and only occasionally a near-normal spermatozoon was found. The defects might be the result of a defective function of the “manchette” and the “spindle shaped body” that occur during spermiogenesis, but disappear during late maturation of the spermatozoon.
