Abstract
A successful zygote intra-Fallopian transfer has been performed using spermatozoa from a patient with Kallmann's syndrome. Spermatogenesis was induced by hormonal treatment but even so, semen quality remained slightly impaired and no pregnancy occurred over 4 years, despite ovulation induction in the patient's spouse. Finally she conceived after assisted procreation by in-vitro fertilization and delivered a healthy baby.
