Abstract
The ultrastructural features of the gonads from a patient with the complete form of testicular feminization syndrome (TFS) were compared with fetal, cryptorchid, and adult testes in otherwise normal individuals. Morphologically, the TFS gonads resemble abnormal fetal testes, presumably a reflection of an arrest of normal differentiation during the very early stages of testicular development. The pertinent endocrine and genetic data as related to the morphology of TFS gonads are discussed.
