Abstract EN
The present study was done to determine and evaluate the effect of X-ray irradiation on the testicular tissue of rabbits those were exposed for a long time.
Ten male rabbits, 8-9 months old and their weight approximately two kg.
Rabbits were exposed to X-ray irradiation for two months/ twice daily.
Blood parameters and testosterone hormone were measured within 20th, 40th, and 60th days after exposure. Orchictomy were done by surgical methods after 60th days for histopathological examination.
The results revealed highly changes in testis such as atrophy, hyper atrophy, blood vessel congestion and suppression of spermatogenesis, blood parameter also changed and testosterone levels reach to zero at 60th days after exposure.
In concluding that the persistence of X-ray exposure caused deterioration and passive effects on testicular tissue and other organs of rabbits.
