OBJECTIVE: Open testicular biopsy (OTB) is one of the options to accurately assess fertility potential of the undescended testis. The aim of the study was to investigate consequences of OTB in prepubertal rats on their adulthood fertility.
METHODS: Thirty-eight prepubertal male rats were divided into three groups depending on day 20 procedure. The first group was the control group, the second sham operated and the third has left OTB. Bilateral orchiectomy was performed on day 70 to all groups, with determination of serum inhibin B and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). Removed testes were compared according to the weight, volume, spermatogenesis, histological and apoptotic changes in both testes with differences in serum levels of inhibin B and FSH.
RESULTS: Ipsilateral testicular weight, volume, and spermatogenesis reduction with a reduction of tubular number, diameter and germinative epithelium was found in OTB group. Significant increase in apoptotic index was found in biopsied testis without compensatory hypertrophy of contralateral testis. Differences of inhibin B and FSH were not statistically significant among three groups.
CONCLUSION: OTB in prepubertal rats has detrimental effects on fertility in adulthood. It does not cause compensatory hypertrophy of the contralateral testis nor does it disturb serum levels of inhibin B and FSH.
