title: [Andrologic appraisal in a court of law. Current problems in daily practice].
abstract: In a court of law the andrological expert is a servant of the court, not a judge. In the case of oligozoospermia manifested at the present time, where anamnestic data regarding any past sickness are lacking, it must be assumed that during the legal time of conception a condition similar to that now detected also existed. This means that the present finding was already in a state of effect in the past. Furthermore the presence of the expert at the time of masturbation by the patient controlling the semen production is discussed. The defense attorney asked the court for the presence of the expert. This presence does not cause any additional difficulty for the patient.
