Abstract: Nesta pesquisa foram obtidos dados histológicos e morfométricos comparativos sobre os testículos de gatos, pós-orquiectomia, divididos em dois grupos: Grupo 1, gatos com até 1 ano de idade e Grupo 2, animais acima de 1 ano. Verificou-se que: (1) aos 4 meses de idade os túbulos seminíferos apresentaram-se pouco desenvolvidos e com ausência de luz, epitélio seminífero baixo, células de Sertoli indiferenciadas e tecido intersticial escasso; (2) aos 5 meses os túbulos seminíferos começaram a se diferenciar com aum… Show more

“…Microscopically, the albuginea tunica in the examined testes of Leopardus pardalis is thick and consists of the presence of dense connective tissue moderately modeled, with considerable amounts of collagen fibers and discrete elastic fibers, with emission of thin septa into the parenchyma testicular. The findings corroborate the research conducted by Silva et al (2009) on domestic felines. As described by Carneiro et al (2010), in Leopardus pardalis the vas deferens is a long and thin structure, similar to that of the domestic cat (Getty, 1987).…”

“…The height of the seminiferous epithelium exhibited mean values that are in agreement with a report by Siemieniuch and Woclawek-Potoca, 6 who examined 118 pairs of testicles in 4-month-old to 10-year-old cats and found the following mean values for diameter of seminiferous tubules: 191.83 μm in 8- to 12-month-old cats; 202.61 μm in 1- to 3-year-old cats; 193.38 μm in 3- to 6-year-old cats; and 191.84 μm for cats over 6 years old.The averages found in this study are in agreement with those reported by Hoshino et al, 7 who found mean values of 54.52 μm when researching this structure in 1- to 5-year-old cats, and Neubauer et al 8 who found a minimal tubular diameter of 195.2 μm and height of epithelium of 59.4 μmin 10 1- to 10-year-old cats, and Silva et al, 5 who compared the height of seminiferous epithelium and tubular diameter in 10 young cats (up to 1 year old) and 10 adult cats (over 1 year old) and found mean values of 49.51 μm and 63.29 μm for young and adult cats, respectively. Regarding diameter, they found mean values of 160.58 μm and 185.94 μm in young and adult cats, respectively.…”

“…The tunica albuginea mean values in 4- to 6-year-old cats were similar to those found by França and Godinho and Silva et al, 4,5 who studied the structure and function of testicles. They studied the seminiferous epithelium cycle in adult animals and found that cats aged over 8 years exhibited thicker tunica albuginea compared with other mammals and that it was formed by collagen fibers.…”

“…O conhecimento da função reprodutiva dos gatos domésticos é de grande importância devido a semelhança entre a anatomia reprodutiva do Felis catus e da maioria dos felinos selvagens. (DIAGONE, 2009;SILVA et al, 2009;JOHNSON, 2018).…”
