ABSTRACT
A 27 year old male, who underwent excision and radiotherapy for a pineal gland germinoma four years previously, subsequently developed panhypopituitarism and, thus, complete azoospermia. Gonadotrophin replacement therapy resulted in the production of a small number of motile spermatozoa which were used for Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) into oocytes obtained from his wife. After successful fertilization and embryo transfer, a singleton intrauterine pregnancy was achieved which resulted in the normal delivery of a morphologically normal male live infant at term.(AU)
