Further studies on intratesticular testosterone concentration in patients with disturbed fertility.

32 patients with azoospermia or severe oligozoospermia were studied. In all cases testosterone was in the normal range. Luteinizing hormone (LH) in plasma was elevated in 10 patients and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) was elevated in 18 cases. The testes were evaluated by morphometry. The higher the degree of tubular atrophy the smaller the testes and the more Leydig cells found in a given piece of tissue. The percentage of the testes occupied by Leydig cells correlated wtih the intratesticular testosterone concentration(r = 0.435, P < 0.001). In the subgroup of patients with normal plasma testosterone and elevated LH values the intratesticular testosterone was significantly (P < 0.001) elevated as compared to the patients with normal LH.

Feline epilepsy.

In approximately two-thirds of the epileptic cats in this article, an idiopathic epilepsy had to be assumed. It began between six and 36 months of age with a single seizure, which usually occurred during rest or sleep. Symptomatic epilepsy was frequently observed during the first two years of life and in old age, beginning frequently with multiple seizures or status epilepticus and less often during sleep or rest. In both types, grand mal seizures are predominant. Seizure clusters or status epilepticus caused extensive neuron necroses and scleroses in Ammon's horn. Diazepana and phenobarbital are antiepileptics of first choice for the cat; primidone and phenytoin are less suitable.
