Summary:Since 2013, a high prevalence of HPV male genital tract infection has been reported, and the presence of HPV-DNA was found in the penile shaft, glans penis, coronal sulcus, semen, as well as in the scrotal, perianal, and anal region. Many studies have indicated that the semen suffers a negative impact on sperm parameters and male fertility, causing a significant decrease in progressive motility and sperm morphology. [...]more efforts need to be made to promote vaccination campaigns and define the male populations to be screened. * Garolla A, Graziani A, Grande G, Ortolani C, Ferlin A.
