Normal morphology is a major criterion for selecting spermatozoa to be injected. Given that teratozoospermia is one of the most critical parameters associated with sperm aneuploidy, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the aneuploidy rate of morphologically normal spermatozoa of patients with oligo-astheno-teratozoospermia (OAT).
