Clinical Evaluation of Laparoscopic Sterilization Techniques in Female Rhesus Macaques (macaca Mulatta)

چکیده
Clinical study on laparoscopic evaluation of two different techniques of sterilization was carried out in 60 healthy female Rhesus macaques divided into two equal groups viz., ovariectomy (Group I; n=30), tubectomy (group II; n=30). After anesthesia , animals were placed in Trendelenburg’s position on a tilted surgical table. Two pre-umbilical ports were created for insertion of forceps and laparoscope. The monopolar electrocautery was utilized for cutting and electrocoagulation. Surgical time differed between groups, there was shorter surgical time for the laparoscopic tubectomy (4.0 ± 0.8 min) as compared to ovariectomy (7.0±0.6min). There were also lesser bleeding and inflammatory changes in the laparoscopic tubectomy. Laparoscopic procedure was performed under xylazine-ketamine anesthesia at a 10 mmHg pressure gradient of CO2. Both the methods of laparoscopic sterilization in female Rhesus macaques were found to be effective but laparoscopic tubectomy was preferred for routine clinical utility.

Enterocytozoon bieneusi is the most common microsporidian parasite recognized in human patients with AIDS. Recently, we identified a virtually identical organism causing a spontaneous infection associated with hepatobiliary and intestinal disease in simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)-infected macaques. To examine the natural history of the infection, we examined captive rhesus macaques for E. ...
