title: Transient acrosomal hypoplasia of spermatozoa and male fertility.
abstract: Successful pregnancy was established despite previous demonstration of acrosomal hypoplasia. Although initial studies of sperm function and electron microscopic evaluation of the semen documented the presence of severe structural abnormalities, the condition proved to be transient in nature.
