Plugged Ampullae in a Donkey Stallion ( Equus asinus ) [PDF]

Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 2018
Abstract The donkey jack sex glands are larger than stallions, responsible for producing most part of seminal plasma and the second fraction of ejaculate, along with epididymis tail. Plugged ampullae occur by sperm accumulation obstructing the lumen, inducing decrease in sperm quality and may cause azoospermia. In this study, a Pega breed donkey jack,
