This study found that men with testicular microlithiasis and testicular atrophy are at an increased risk of germ cell neoplasia in situ. Additionally, our results indicate that biopsies should be considered in men with a combination of subfertility and bilateral testicular microlithiasis. Our findings do not support testicular biopsies for men with testicular microlithiasis and other risk factors.
