Objective:
We have studies both the morphologic and morphometric modifications that the alcohol induces in subjected rats to chronic intake of alcohol and to evaluate the reversibility of this alterations after suppressing the ingesta of alcohol.
Material And Methods:
The animals underwent diverse outlines of chronic intake of alcohol and diverse morphometric parameters of the prostate were valued at the level of optic microscopy.
Results:
Two morphologic prostatic patterns was observed according to the studied group of animals (experimental or control). It seems to be that the dose of alcohol was the factor that more it influenced in the morphometric variations of the cells.
