Abstract
In 21 newly diagnosed male patients with disseminated bronchial cancer, anaemia was associated with a reduced serum concentration of testosterone. Erythropoietin levels were increased in anaemic patients. The results suggest a normal erythropoietin response to anaemia in this condition. The reduced testosterone concentration is associated with normal levels of luteinizing hormone and its significance in the pathogenesis of the anaemia is uncertain.Entities:
