A. VAS DEFERENS, LEFT, VASECTOMY: | |||
- VAS DEFERENS WITHIN NORMAL LIMITS, LOOP OF EPITHELIUM AND MUSCLE LAYERS PRESENT. | |||
B. VAS DEFERENS, RIGHT, VASECTOMY: | |||
- COMPATIBLE WITH VAS DEFERENS, WITHOUT COMPLETE LOOP OF EPITHELIUM, SEE COMMENT. | |||
COMMENT - PART B: | |||
Definite vas deferens epithelium is not identified; however, the muscle layering seen is | |||
compatible with a vas deferens. Levels were cut (x4). | |||
Clinical correlation is suggested. | |||
</pre> | |||
====No vas deferens identified==== | |||
<pre> | |||
A. CONNECTIVE TISSUE, RIGHT, "VASECTOMY": | |||
- NO VAS DEFERENS IDENTIFIED. | |||
- BENIGN FIBROMUSCULAR TISSUE WITH INTERMEDIATE BLOOD VESSELS. | |||
B. CONNECTIVE TISSUE, LEFT, "VASECTOMY": | |||
- NO VAS DEFERENS IDENTIFIED. | |||
- BENIGN FIBROMUSCULAR TISSUE WITH INTERMEDIATE BLOOD VESSELS. | |||
COMMENT: | |||
Levels were cut (x3). Clinical correlation is suggested. | |||
