Popis: We present a case of third trimester pregnancy occurring in a 29 year old woman after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment with spermatozoa from a globozoospermic man. We believe this is the first reported case. A 37 year old man was diagnosed with globozoospermia with normal sperm count and motility. In-vitro fertilization and subzonal insemination treatments failed to achieve fertilization of any eggs. The ICSI method produced 50% fertilization, 75% cleavage rate and a singleton pregnancy with a female fetus. No pregnancy or fetal abnormalities have been noted after > 7 months of gestation.
