Resumen

Objetivo. Evaluar la eficacia en el control reproductivo mediante la aplicación intratesticular de glicerol más gluconato de zinc en gatos de interior. Materiales y métodos. En la presente investigación se trabajó con 13 gatos de interior fueron clasificados en dos grupos de estudio. Grupo 1: 6 gatos fueron sometidos a orquiectomía tradicional bilateral. En el grupo 2 los 7 gatos fueron inyectados en ambos testículos con 1 mL de mezcla glicerol-gluconato zinc, la medición testicular y parámetros clínicos fueron tomadas en los días 0, 8, 16, 46 en el grupo 2. Resultados. Dentro del grupo 2 el tamaño testicular a los 46 días tuvo una reducción porcentual de 65% menos volumen y longitud en comparación al día 0 tras la aplicación intratesticular del químico y un 76% menos de espículas en comparación al día 0. El conteo espermático fue tomado desde la cola del epidídimo y realizado a todos los individuos del grupo 2 tras la orquiectomía bilateral a los 46 días, dando como resultado azoospermia en todos los individuos. Conclusiones. Se puede determinar que una inyección bilateral de glicerol al 70% más 4.5 mg de gluconato de zinc es una alternativa a la orquiectomía convencional, en donde resulta ser un método menos invasivo, más rápido, menos traumático y con una reducción económica del 85% en relación a una orquiectomía quirúrgica.
