Abstract
The aim of the study is to investigate the anatomical and histological structure of the ductus deferens in representatives of the order Lagomorpha. The results of the micromorphology of the vas deferens in representatives of the order Lagomorpha are presented. Histological preparations were prepared and exami¬ned at the Omsk State Agrarian University (Department of Anatomy, Histology, Physiology and Pathological Anatomy). The objects of the study were material obtained from five sexually mature male Californian rabbits. For histological examination, pieces of organs were selected using the generally accepted method. Sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, as well as the Van Gieson method. Morphological, histological, morphometric and statistical methods were used in the study. The ductus deferens in rabbits is a paired tubular organ. The thickness of the mucous membrane of the left ductus deferens varies within 85.77 ± 3.13 μm, of the right ductus deferens was 136.14 ± 3.20 μm. The thickness of the muscular membrane of the left ductus deferens was 287.16 ± 3.48 μm, of the right ductus deferens was 333.79 ± 4.07 μm. The thickness of the adventitia of the left ductus deferens was 246.08 ± 4.75 μm, of the right ductus deferens was 258.56 ± 3.84 μm. During the study, special attention was paid to the adaptation of the muscular layer, which demonstrates a high degree of development and the ability to powerful peristaltic contractions, ensuring the movement of sex cells to the urethra. We can also assume the formation of sphincter systems of the ductus deferens in the indicated anatomical areas.
