Abstract
In this experimental study 15 male rats weighing 200-250g were prepared and first, one of the rats was sacrificed and testicles on both sides were used for pathology control. After general anaesthesia vascular ligature was performed with the left testes undergoing both venous and arterial occlusion and the right testes only arterial occlusion. After 1 month, all specimens were killed and the testes were completely removed and sent for histopathological evaluation. A total of 14 rats and 28 testes were studied in two equal groups of case and control. There was no significant difference between the case and control groups in terms of testicular volume, consistency, and viability. Microscopic findings revealed that necrosis, infarction, and state of inflammation were significantly higher in the case group than in the control group. The results of this study show that abrupt closure of the testicular artery in rats is associated with necrosis and infarction, decreased spermatogenesis, and more inflammation. However, no significant differences were found in terms of macroscopic findings including volume, consistency, and viability.
