Abstract
Ligation of the proximal and distal ends of the rabbit oviducts was used to induce hydrosalpinges. The adrenergic innervation of the induced hydrosalpinx was studied. Depletion of adrenergic innervation in rabbit hydrosalpinges was found. Our findings suggest that not only mucosal changes, but also loss of adrenergic nerves must be taken into account as factors in the pathology of hydrosalpinx.
