Long-Evans rats vasectomized unilaterally or bilaterally at 2 months of age showed marked reductions in weight of testes, seminal vesicles and prostate glands 2 and 12 months post-vasectomy. Thyroid weight, thyroid 131I uptake, serum PB131I, circulating levels of serum T4 and chromatographic analysis of thyroid hydrolysates revealed no alterations due to vasectomy. These findings indicate that vasectomy, unilateral or bilateral, and whether of 2 or 12 months duration, did not exert an effect on thyroid function.
2月龄时单侧或双侧输精管结扎的Long-Evans大鼠在输精管结扎后2个月和12个月时，睾丸、精囊和前列腺重量显著减轻。甲状腺重量、甲状腺131I摄取率、血清PB131I、血清T4循环水平以及甲状腺水解产物的色谱分析显示，输精管结扎未引起任何改变。这些发现表明，单侧或双侧输精管结扎，无论持续2个月还是12个月，均未对甲状腺功能产生影响。
