Abstract
- The effects on the remaining gland of unilateral and partial orchiectomy were studied in the adult male rats. The enlargement of the remaining testis following unilateral orchiectomy was observed and it seems to be the result of cellular hypertrophy rather than hyperplasia. Following one and a half orchiectomy the remaining testicular tissue was mainly replaced by scar tissue. It is probably due to difficult technique in partial excision of testis.
