of unilateral injury to the vas deferens on the contralateral
testis in immature and adult rats. J.Urol. 1995;153:1313-5.
Abstract:
The relationship between alterations in testicular histology
and antisperm antibodies in immature and mature Lewis rats
subjected to unilateral vasectomy was studied. Forty percent
of immature rats and 90% of mature rats (p < 0.01) demonstrated
significant alterations in both the obstructed (vasectomy)
testis and the contralateral testis. There were significant
changes in antisperm antibodies (ELISA) in the animals which
demonstrated histologic changes
