RATALARDA FARKLI BİR VAZEKTOMİ TEKNİĞİ

Bu çalışmada erkek ratları kısırlaştırmak amacıyla yeni bir vazektomi tekniği uygulandı. Materyal olarak, 6 aylık fertilitesi ispatlanmış 20 albino rat kullanıldı. Hayvanlar rastgele iki gruba ayrılarak I. gruptaki (n=10) ratlara, ductus deferenslere ligatür konarak vazektomi yapıldı. İkinci gruptaki (n=10) ratlarda ise ductus deferens transversal olarak kesilerek, serbest kalan uçları ayrı ayrı kendi üzerlerine düğümlendi. Operasyon-dan 15 gün sonra iki gruptaki tüm ratların kafeslerine 5 adet dişi rat konularak çiftleşmeleri gözlendi. Sonuç olarak, her iki gruptaki ratlarda post operatif herhangi bir komplikasyona rastlanmadı. Ayrıca, tüm hayvanların dişilerle çiftleştiği görüldü. Ancak yeni operasyon tekniğinin daha kolay, daha ucuz ve daha kısa sürede bittiği tespit edildi.

A DIFFERENT VASECTOMY TECHNIQUE IN RATS

In this work a novel vasectomy technique in rats is presented. A total of 20 albino rats with proven fertility capacity that were 6 months-old were used for this study. They were randomly divided into two groups. In group 1 (n=10), vasectomy was performed by simple placement of ligatures on ductus deferens, whereas in the second group (n=10) ductus deferens was transected transversally and then free edges were separately knotted over itself. Fifteen days after the operation, 5 female rats were placed on cages in order to allow copulation. No complications were encountered postoperatively in either group. All animals achieved copulation. However, we concluded that the new operative technique (the latter) was easier to perform, cheaper and less time consuming.
