Nothing much special. A high rep set at the end of the workout will increase capillarization , delivering more nutrition, oxygen to the cells while disposal of waste products , helping trainee more tolerant to lactic acid and before contests showing a bodybuilding competitor more swole with pump effect.
In terms of hypertrophy have a slight effect since the tension is insufficient to make muscles grow.

for those who seem confused, your technique breaks down with fatigue, therefore if you are doing high reps you technique will eventually break down. Unless you are using such pointlessly light weight that you won't get anything out of doing that weight.

And if you are looking to improve technique, you would be much better off doing 20 sets of 2-3 with say 60-70% rather then 2-3 sets of 20
