Abstract
Introduction: The fallopian tube is the vital part of reproductive system where the fertilization of ova takes place. It also acts as a transporting channel for passing the ova and the products of conception to the uterus. To perform these vital functions fallopian tubes u ndergo various histological va riations during va rious phases of oestrus cycle. Material & Methods: Histology of fallopian tubes of 50 female rabbits were studied by using H & E staining. Study of the cytology of vagina of the animal decided the phase of the oestrus cycle i.e. proestrus, oestrus, metaestrus and diestrus phases by Papaniculou's staining. Observations and Results: The study revealed histological changes in relation to various phases of oestrus cycle. Epithelial surface area was maximum in oestrus phase. Secretory cells were most active in metaestrus and diestrus phases. Cilliary cells were prominent in proestrus and oestrus phases. The vascular activity was found maxim um in oestrus phase
