Figure 2 (A) A micrograph of ovary from a sham control. The ovary appears normal. H & E. Bar = 115 μm. (B) A micrograph from a rabbit ovary undergoing torsion–detorsion. Severe congestion, hemorrhage (arrow), edema (arrowhead), and leukocyte infiltration (white arrows) are present. H & E. Bar = 230 μm. (C) A micrograph from a rabbit ovary undergoing torsion–detorsion and treated with Marrubium cordatum 1 hour before detorsion. Moderate congestion (arrows), edema (arrowhead), and light hemorrhage (white arrow) are present. H & E. Bar = 230 μm.
