Abstract:
A new surgical technique has been used on white New Zealand rabbits. A segment of vas deferens was transplanted to the contralateral deferens with the intention of improving treatment for certain cases of infertility caused by obstruction. Evaluation of the technique was carried out by repeated seminograms, deferentovesiculography and histological studies of the transplanted deferens segment and the corresponding testicle. The viability of this surgical technique has been shown using the rabbit as an experimental specimen.
