| الوصف: | We evaluated the effects of unilateral obstruction of the vas deferens on testicular endocrine and exocrine function in rats. The left vas deferens was ligated and divided in 1-week-old Wistar rats. Additional rats of the same age underwent a sham operation. Bilateral testicular weight and epididymal weight were compared between the vasec-tomized and sham-operated animals at 4, 8 and 12 weeks postoperation. Intratesticular versus intraabdominal temperature difference, epididymal caudal sperm content (ECSC), motility (ECSM) and in vitro fertilizing capacity (IVF) were compared between the vasectomized and sham-operated animals at 12 weeks postoperation. Serum testosterone response to human chorionic gonadotropin and bilateral testicular weight were significantly smaller in the vasectomized animals than in the sham-operated animals at 8 and 12 weeks postoperation. Bilateral ECSC, ECSM and IVF outcomes were signifi-cantly smaller in vasectomized rats than in sham-treated rats 12 weeks postoperatively. Bilateral intratesticular versus intraabdominal temperature differences were not signifi-cantly different between the vasectomized and control rats at 12 weeks postoperation. Unilateral obstruction of the vas deferens results in a bilateral defect in spermatogenesis |
