Vasectomy and vasoligation become widely used as a mean of
male contraception. Owing to their increasing use, many investigations

Fourty-five adult male albino rats were divided into three groups according to the type of the preformed operation. Group I consisted of 15 rats useJ as control. Group II consisted of 15 rats that were subjected to unilateral vasectomy without ligation. Group III consisted of 15 rats that were subjectl!d to \Jnilateral vasoligation.In each group the animals were sacrificed at :interv lof two weeks, one month and two months post
. operative. Histological examination of 1:he testes and epididymes of both
