The role of the epididymis in testicular descent

D T Mininberg et al. J Urol. 1983 Jun.

Abstract

In 54 patients with 70 undescended testes hospitalized for orchiopexy epididymal anatomy was examined intraoperatively. Of the testes 66 per cent had abnormal epididymides, which suggests a possibly significant role for the epididymis in the process of testicular descent.
