CYTOLOGICAL AND STEREOLOGICAL STUDY
Abstract
We proposed to study the microscopic structure of adenohypophysis, thyroid and adrenal glands in gelded sows, by cytological qualitative and quantitative techniques. The surgical gelding act, practiced in young sows, releases an acute postoperative stress syndrome (“postoperative disease”), which continues in time with a less evident syndrome -the chronic stress syndrome. The sudden and total suppression of ovary endocrine function has as effect the change of interrelations of the other endocrine
