Testicular-epididymal fusion abnormality in undescended testis

M Merksz et al. Int Urol Nephrol. 1987.

Abstract

In the course of 1195 operations, performed in children with cryptorchidism, the testes were studied for size, turgor and fusion with the epididymis. Inquiries were made into the reasons of fusion disorders which were conspicuously numerous. Attention is called to this not too familiar condition which seems to play an important role in the emergence of fertility disorders in men with congenital cryptorchidism.
