Abstract

Reproductive rehabilitation of men after spinal cord injury has been made possible by the application of assisted ejaculatory techniques such as electroejaculation. Although this technique may predictably overcome the barrier of semen recovery, the problem of seminal dysfunction still remains. This report describes one of the few pregnancies established by a quadriplegic man using electroejaculatory stimulation for semen acquisition and standard in vitro semen preparation methods for intrauterine insemination.
