This paper studies the gonadal-hormonal and spermatic function of 48 adults (over 18 years old) who were treated in childhood for cryptorchidism by medical, surgical or both treatments. We measure plasmatic levels of FSH, LH, testosterone and prolactin of 34 patients and sperm samples of 31 patients. The testicular hormonal function was not disturbed except in four patients with high levels of prolactin (> 20 ng/ml) without symptoms. The spermatic function was disturbed in bilateral cryptorchidism mainly. The better sperm quality and testicular volume were at patients treated with hormonal treatment before surgical treatment.
