A DIFFERENT VASECTOMY TECHNIQUE IN RATS
Öz
In this work a novel vasectomy technique in rats is presented. A total of 20 albino rats with proven fertility capacity that were 6 months-old were used for this study. They were randomly divided into two groups. In group 1 (n=10), vasectomy was performed by simple placement of ligatures on ductus deferens, whereas in the second group (n=10) ductus deferens was transected transversally and then free edges were separately knotted over itself. Fifteen days after the operation, 5 female rats were placed on cages in order to allow copulation. No complications were encountered postoperatively in either group. All animals achieved copulation. However, we concluded that the new operative technique (the latter) was easier to perform, cheaper and less time consuming.
