| Abstract: | The present study was carried out to determine the detailed histological and cytological features of the excurrent ducts of
the male reproductive system in the rhesus monkey. The excurrent ducts show a regional difference in their histological features.
The use of some of these features as histological markers and their possible functional significance are discussed.
The epithelial cells in the different components of the excurrent duct system possess cytological features which suggest their
involvement in absorption and the secretion of different products into the lumen. |
