ABSTRACT
The tubular wall in the human prepuberal testis of cryptorchid patients has been examined by ultrastructural and histochemical analysis. When compared with the normolocated testes, a disorganization of the tubular wall due to cryptorchidism is apparent. Alterations regarding single elements of the tubular wall are described and a positive correlation seems to exist between the age and the amount of the damage. A possible relation between morphological changes and hormone therapy is discussed.
