Estudo do desenvolvimento prostático em cães neonatos da raça Rotweiller

Abstract

Four Rotweiller dog prostates were used, neonates analyzed macro and microscopically. They were anatomically positioned, caudally after the urinary bladder, entering the pelvic bone. They showed a tissue mass surrounding the pelvic urethra. They had two wolves measuring 0.9 cm long and 0.6 cm wide, with a volume of 0.82 ml, and weight 0.80 g. Histologically, the prostatic body was covered by connective tissue and tubule - alveolar portions were observed whose alveoli were covered by an epithelium not yet defined. The stroma had dense non-modeled connective tissue surrounding the secretory portion and muscle fibers. Among the wolves, we observe the prostatic urethra.
