Despite the advent of DNA probes for sex identification of many avian and some reptile species, clinicians involved with zoos, conservation projects, or breeders may still be asked to perform "surgical sexing." This article describes the practical approach to performing endoscopic sex identification in psittacines and chelonians, including patient preparation, anesthesia, and endoscopic procedure.
尽管已经出现了用于许多鸟类和一些爬行动物性别鉴定的DNA探针,但参与动物园、保护项目或养殖的临床医生仍可能被要求进行“手术性别鉴定”。本文介绍了在鹦鹉和龟鳖类动物中进行内镜性别鉴定的实用方法,包括患者准备、麻醉和内镜检查程序。
