Abstract
Sixteen cases of the vanishing testis syndrome seen between January, 1961, and June, 1969, are described; in four cases the lesion was bilateral. The characteristic finding was a vas deferens accompanied by testicular vessels, the vas ending either blindly or in a few rudimentary epididymal tubules. It is suggested that the syndrome is due to disappearance of the testis at a late stage of prenatal development.
