title: [Spermiogram studies to be performed at outside laboratories?].
abstract: Again and again we must observe that doctors practising andrology refer patients to a laboratory for semen analysis because they are not able to do it in their own laboratory. In such cases the doctor performs the clinical investigation including the past history, while the spermatogram is performed in a laboratory. This practice should be rejected because many mistakes as well as misinterpretations are possible.
