title: On the psychopathology of patients with disorders in the descent of the testis.
abstract: The authors deal with disorders in the descent of the testis and analyse the causes and manifestations from the point of view of fertility and indications to medical treatment or early surgery. Thirty-nine patients were examined and diagnosed as unilateral or bilateral cryptorchism and retention of the testis. The spermatogenetic functions in individual diagnosis and type of operation are described. They wish to ascertain a mutual connection between sexual function and neurotic symptoms in operated patients with regard to the 3 diagnostic groups.
