Congenital Bilateral Absence of the Vas Deferens
Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is a genetic condition often linked to cystic fibrosis, resulting in male infertility. Men with CBAVD have both vas deferens missing from birth. Diagnosis includes genetic testing and semen analysis, revealing azoospermia. Treatment options include assisted reproductive technologies.
