Abstract
Diminished libido, impotence and infertility were detected in 5 of 6 men with adrenoleukodystrophy, a universally fatal disease. The importance of the clinical recognition of these patients and their separation from others with relatively innocuous causes of testicular dysfunction are discussed.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
