Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this review is to survey the growing literature on ejaculatory duct obstruction and to provide a comprehensive overview of the current trends in the diagnosis and management of patients with this disorder. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Review of current literature on ejaculatory duct obstruction. RESULTS: Ejaculatory duct obstruction is a surgically treatable cause of male infertility. It is usually suspected in an infertile male who has low ejaculate semen volume but normal testicular size and normal secondary male sexual characteristics. CONCLUSION: Transrectal ultrasonography is the initial investigation method used to visualize and locate the presence of a cyst or calcifications that may contribute to the obstruction. Transurethral resection of the ejaculatory ducts represents the best treatment modality, resulting in marked improvement in the semen parameters and pregnancy rate in well selected cases.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
