The results indicate that there is no significant short-term or long-term effect of these surgical procedures on prostatic secretory function as measured by seminal plasma zinc concentration. © 1987 by The American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 137Issue 2February 1987Page: 228-229 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 1987 by The American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.MetricsAuthor Information Richard F.
