Background: Brachial artery pseudoaneurysms (PSAs) are a rare complication of trauma and medical intervention, estimated to constitute 0.3-0.7% of all PSAs.

Considering the great polymorphism that llama spermatozoa present at evaluation using light microscopy, the aim of this study was to objectively evaluate llama sperm head morphometry using digital morphometric analysis. Five ejaculates from each of eight males were obtained to evaluate morphometric parameters of 8000 sperm heads stained with Tinción 15(®).

- The study aimed to objectively analyze llama semen viscosity using a Brookfield rotational viscometer, unlike traditional subjective methods.
- Significant differences in viscosity were found between different ejaculates from the same male, indicating variability in semen quality.
- The research also demonstrated that collagenase treatment affected the semen's viscosity, highlighting its potential impact on fertility assessments.
The effect cryopreservation has on sperm chromatin condensation has been studied in many species but not in South American camelids. The objectives of this study were to evaluate with toluidine blue (TB) the effects of cooling and of adding collagenase on llama sperm DNA condensation. The optimum incubation time (30 s, 1.
