ABSTRACT
Iatrogenic causes of male infertility can include medications, chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. In this review, we discuss commonly performed urologic cancer surgeries and nonurologic surgeries that harbor a high risk of iatrogenic infertility. These include radical prostatectomy, radical cystectomy, retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, pelvic colon surgery, and anterior spine surgery. In addition, we review the anatomy and surgical strategies that help to reduce the risks of infertility. With an increase in life expectancy and improvements in fertility preservation, it is important to properly counsel patients about the risks of infertility and provide options for fertility preservation before surgery.
