The aim of this study was to describe the ultrastructural features observed in semen samples of men with infertility and subfertility of unknown cause infected with Chlamydia trachomatis and mycoplasmas. The findings observed by ultrastructure included destruction or persistence of bacteria in leukocytes, phagocytosis of spermatozoa by leukocytes, and structural damage of spermatozoa.
