The structure of the ampulla ductus deferentis of adult rabbits was studied by light-, transmission- and scanning-electron microscopy. The ampulla consists of a network of diverticles surrounding the central lumen. The diverticles are connected with each other and with the central lumen by oval or round openings. After ejaculation diverticles are usually empty. However, some diverticles were filled with spermatozoa only at sexual rest. The epithelial cells contain an abundant Golgi apparatus, which is organized as a system of closely packed flattened cisternae sometimes being in close connection to lipid droplets and lysosomes. The plasma membrane forms long microvilli-like processes and sometimes vesiculated spherical bodies, swollen cellular apices and protuberances apparently being pinched off.
采用光学显微镜、透射电子显微镜和扫描电子显微镜对成年家兔输精管壶腹的结构进行了研究。壶腹由围绕中央管腔的分支网络组成。这些分支通过椭圆形或圆形开口相互连接并与中央管腔相连。射精后分支通常是空的。然而，一些分支仅在性静止时充满精子。上皮细胞含有丰富的高尔基体，其组织为紧密排列的扁平囊泡系统，有时与脂滴和溶酶体紧密相连。质膜形成长的微绒毛样突起，有时形成泡状球体，肿胀的细胞顶端和突起明显被掐断。
