Twenty-five women scheduled for hysterectomy for nonmalignant disease participated in the study. Sperm storage in endocervical crypts was examined in three groups of patients: nine women pretreated with estrogen and inseminated with normal semen, nine women pretreated with gestagen and inseminated with normal semen, and seven women pretreated with estrogen and inseminated with abnormal semen. The number of crypts containing spermatozoa (colonized crypts) and the sperm density per crypt were examined in serially sectioned cervices. In estrogen-pretreated cervices both the percentage of colonized crypts and the sperm density were significantly higher than in gestagen-pretreated cervices. Large and giant crypts proved to be the main storage facility for spermatozoa. The localization of crypts along the endocervical canal did not influence sperm storage. The quality of semen appeared to be of critical importance to sperm storage. The percentage of colonized crypts and sperm density were severly reduced in patients inseminated with abnormal semen.
25名计划因非恶性疾病行子宫切除术的女性参与了该研究。对三组患者的宫颈隐窝内精子储存情况进行了检查：9名接受雌激素预处理并授以正常精液的女性，9名接受孕激素预处理并授以正常精液的女性，以及7名接受雌激素预处理并授以异常精液的女性。在连续切片的宫颈中检查含有精子的隐窝数量（定植隐窝）和每个隐窝的精子密度。在接受雌激素预处理的宫颈中，定植隐窝的百分比和精子密度均显著高于接受孕激素预处理的宫颈。大隐窝和巨隐窝被证明是精子的主要储存场所。隐窝沿宫颈管的定位不影响精子储存。精液质量似乎对精子储存至关重要。授以异常精液的患者中，定植隐窝的百分比和精子密度严重降低。
