Figure 3. This sagittal view shows the seminiferous tubules, the site of sperm production. Formed sperm are transferred to the epididymis, where they mature. They leave the epididymis during an ejaculation via the ductus deferens. Paired ovals, the testes are each approximately 4 to ...

Of scrotal contents removed from 15 patients with prostatic cancer, methylmetacrylic resin was injected into the epididymis in the reversed direction from the ductus deferens in order to make a cast of the ductus epididymidis. The casts were examined under the epidiascopic microscope, and the fo...
Cholesterol biosynthesis in the mouse epididymis and ductus deferens: a biochemical and morphological study. The fine structure and the biosynthesis of cholesterol were studied in the epididymis and ductus deferens of the following groups (24-30 animals per group) of mice: intact, castrated for 30 ...
