Because endocrine and psychosexual abnormalities occur in schizophrenia, these authors studied bilateral testicular biopsies of twenty-three chronically or acutely schizophrenic patients. Moderate histological testicular pathology was found in five of six chronic catatonics studied, but it may have been due to nutritional deficiencies. The authors conclude that there is no specific relationship between schizophrenia and testicular abnormalities.
