Sertoli cell-only syndrome is defined by the complete absence of germ cells in testicular tissues and always results in male infertility. Germ cells give rise to next stages of spermatogenesis which is the process of sperm formation. They are normally attached to Sertoli cells forming together so called seminiferous tubules which form testicular tissue. If there are only Sertoli cells, then ​ n...

Sertoli cell only syndrome was first described by Del Castillo et al. (1947). According to the original description it has been used when no spermatogenic cells have been seen in a testicular biopsy specimen. It is therefore unfortunate that the name of this syndrome has been misused in Human Reproduction in connection with cases where Sertoli cell only has been a diagnostic failure by a pathol...

objective(s) this investigation was conducted to evaluate the effects of diabetes on the structure and function of testicular tissue. materials and methods diabetes was induced in male adult rats by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. body and testicular weight, hormonal analyses, histological and ultrastructural analyses were measured. results the body and testicular weights ...
