Prior to this session, identification of a distinct discipline and specialty devoted to pediatric andrology had not occurred, nor had it been conceptualized. Pediatric andrology encompasses many different areas: disorders of sexual development, structural disease of the genital organs, normal and abnormal puberty, undescended testes, genital tumors, gonadal function and its relationship to growth, virilization, fertility and gender identity all represent areas of specific interest, to name but a few. Andrology itself is a unique field, bringing together clinicians and basic scientists with diverse back grounds. It should be noted that between one-half and three-quarters of the clinicians contributing to this issue conduct basic research as well. It has been this unique blend of basic research and clinical medicine which has done much to unravel many of these problems characteristic of this field. Why a separate discipline of pediatric andrology? Firstly, because many of the diseases first manifest in adulthood have their beginnings in childhood, or for that matter, at conception. Secondly, because children are not just miniature adults; their anatomy, physiology and mentality are different, as well as their medical problems, both andrologic and otherwise. The discipline of pediatric andrology represents an input from individuals who have a knowledge of the problems unique to children, and who are skilled in dealing with these problems. It is hoped that this volume will serve as a vehicle for communication between individuals who work in different specialty fields of interest, who all have a common interest in the problems unique to pediatric andrology, and that future volumes may be able to serve a similar function as well.
