## Abstract The fetal and neonatal development of male germ cells (gonocytes) is a poorly understood but crucial process for establishing fertility. In rodents, gonocytes go through two phases of proliferation accompanied by apoptosis and separated by a quiescent period during the end of fetal deve

## Abstract Spermatogenesis is a truly remarkable process that requires exquisite control and synchronization of germ cell development. It is prone to frequent error, as paternal infertility contributes to 30β50% of all infertility cases; yet, in many cases, the mechanisms underlying its causes are
Autopsy findings are reviewed in 154 patients treated for germ cell tumors of the testis. OF the patients with apparently pure seminoma, 44% had autopsy evidence of nonseminomatous metastases. For all tumor types, the most common sites of distant metastasis were lung (89%), liver (73%), brain (31%),
Testes of 175 patients with histologically proved carcinoma of the prostate were biopsied and processed for conventional as well as radioautographic study. Satisfactory spermatogenesis was preserved in 4 0 4 5 % of the biopsied testis. I n 35-40%, spermatogenesis was active, but there was clear evid
