Abstract
Testicular lymph and regional lymph nodes consistently contained spermatozoa in rams and boars up to 3 mo. after vasectomy. Such direct access of spermatozoa to lymph nodes could provide a powerful stimulus to the development of anti-sperm autoimmunity.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
