Abstract
The work is devoted to extend to dimension five the following combinatorial characterization of (orientable and non-orientable) handlebodies, already proved for dimensions three and four by the same author: a compact connected 5-manifold $M^5$ is a handlebody (of genus g) iff $ G(M^5)= G(\partial M^5} (=g)$, $G(X) being the regular genus of the manifold X. Moreover, partial results in dimension n induce to conjecture that an analogous characterization also holds for handlebodies of arbitrary dimension.
