Popis: | A surgical technique was developed to collect testicular fluid from the extratesticular rete testis of the pony stallion. A cannula was inserted through an incision in the visceral vaginal tunic following ligation of the efferent ductules. The cannula was sutured in place in the extratesticular rete testis. The other end of the cannula was exteriorized and inserted into a plastic collection receptacle fastened to the scrotum. Testicular fluid was collected for 12 to 36 hours at a rate of 1.07 ± 0.8 ml/hr. Sperm clots in the proximal end of the cannulas were responsible for the cessation of drainage. |
