Endocrinogonadic implications in male uro-genital tuberculosis. 1980

P C Ioanid

Unlike females, the endocrine gonadic syndrome in males usually accompanies the disorders of the excreting apparatus. Interpretation of the lesions as uro-genital tuberculosis has been commonly accepted in practice. Researches carried out in males, much fewer than in females, have showed a number of particular aspects of the syndrome. This paper makes a brief survey of these aspects based on updated references.
