This paper reports results of clinical examination of 29 men having corticotropinoma. It was shown that hypogonadism occurs in more than 60% of the patients with this condition and is accompanied by disorders of sexual function and spermatogenesis. Excessive cortisol secretion in men with coticotropinoma may contribute to the development of infectious and inflammatory diseases of sexual organs and leukospermia.
