description | In this study, it was aimed to describe to the genital
organs, the macroanatomical aspect and three- dimentional (3D) reconstruction
of penis and os penis using multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) images in
the male red fox (Vulpes vulpes). Six dead male red foxes were used as
material. After MDCT images of the penis were obtained, they were reconstructed
using a 3D modeling program (Mimics) by overlapping the images. Morphometric measurements were taken from
reconstructed model of the penis and os penis. Dissections of foxes were
carefully carried out under the loupes. Testis, epididymis and penis were
measured from different places. In terms of anatomical aspect, in the red foxes
were determined to ovoid testis and extend horizontally into the scrotum. The
accessory genital glands were only prostate. The prostate was located to
surround the urethra. The spongios body of penis had os penis which the urethra
was pass through. The length of the penis obtained by mimics program and
digital calliper were not difference. These results may contribute to the lack
of the literature about male genital anatomy of the fed fox.
It
is thought that this study, using 3D reconsruction techniques could make
anatomical studies easier to do without harming on wild animals. |
