[Katamnestic data on Turkish patients in the Department of Andrology between 1981 and 1984]

In a katamnestic study we analysed both the clinical and spermatological data of 223 turkish andrological patients which has been investigated 1981-1984. Concerning the ejaculate parameters, mostly our findings corresponded to those of other authors. In 21.5% we found an azoospermia, in 43.5% oligozoospermia, 9.4% normozoospermia, 10.3% teratozoospermia and 9.0% asthenozoospermia. In 5.9% the patients were not able to produce a semen specimen for investigation. The sexual activity of turkish males is clearly higher than that of europeans.
