Abstract: 

Aims:


This study documents the frequency of multinucleated stromal giant cells within the interstitium of the testis and looks for possible aetiological reasons for this occurrence.  

Materials and methods:


We examined sections of testes from 150 unselected autopsy cases finding stromal giant cells in 43%. An aetiological association between the occurrence of multinucleated stromal giant cells in this site and hormonal or other pathogenetic influences could not be established.  

Conclusions:


In many instances, this occurrence appears to be an age related phenomenon.
Keywords:multinucleated stromal giant cell  testis
