Abstract: The dysplasia of sperm fibrous sheath (DFS) is a rare disease that is characterized by severe abnormality of sperm movement and flagella morphology. The ultrastructure observation can find the typical abnormality of sperm fibrous sheath and axial filament assembly. We recently got a successful pregnancy of DFS by intracytoplasmic single sperm injection (ICSI). In this case, the sperm selected by HOST method was used in ICSI.
