Evaluation of Combined Effects of Vitamin E and Methylprednisolone in Ischemia and Reperfusion Injury of the Testicle Post Torsion and Detorsion in West African Dwarf Goats
Abstract:Background: To investigate the protective effects of vitamin E and methylprednisolone on ischemia and reperfusion testicular injury after testicular torsion and detorsion in West African dwarf (WAD) goats. Methods: Thirty-two male WAD goats were randomly allocated into four groups (n=8); group A was treated with vitamin E, group B with methylprednisolone, group C with combo-therapy of vitamin E and methylprednisolone and group D was the control. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), … Show more
