Post-mortem examination of the endocrine or-gans of a dwarf male Nakalanga active from the head water's area of the White Nile who had suffered from onchocerciasis indicated damage of the adenohypophysis, the thyroid, and to both the gametogenetic and the endo-crine elements of the testes. Apparently the microfilarial decomposition products might have disrupted the normal circulation through hypophysial portal system, thus permitting the damage to develop. || ABSTRACT AUTHORS: A. C.
