Pathological and molecular examination findings in postmortem testis biopsies reveal spermatogenesis damages in COVID-19 patients

2020-08-19

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Despite widespread interest in the pathophysiology of COVID-19 in respiratory and cardiovascular systems, little is known about the morphologic and molecular changes in the testis of patients with COVID-19 and the effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on male fertility. We report here on the pathophysiology and molecular feature of testes obtained at autopsy from six men with COVID-19, as com...
