Retrograde ejaculation is an uncommon but treatable form of male infertility. Successful recovery of motile spermatozoa from a post-ejaculatory urine for artificial insemination is dependent on careful regulation of osmolarity and acidity of the bladder contents into which the ejaculate emanates, and the separation of the motile spermatozoa from the debris and cells which are found in these specimens. A pregnancy established by artificial insemination of spermatozoa recovered from bladder contents of a patient suffering from retrograde ejaculation is presented. The techniques for preparing the urinary bladder for spermatozoal survival and the removal of debris and cells by delicate centrifugation are discussed.
