Microvascular changes during the development of follicles in bovine ovaries were studied by scanning electron microscopy of corrosion casts. A clear vascular plexus of ovarian follicles appeared at the stage when secondary follicles were 200-400 microns in diameter. The plexus consisted initially of a thin, roughly structured and single-layered capillary network. During follicular development, the microvascular architecture of antral follicles was arranged as two independent vascular plexuses. The inner plexus, which received a spiral arteriole, consisted of a dense sinusoidal capillary network with an arterial and a venous layer; it functioned as an independent microcirculatory unit. The inner plexus developed from the capillary plexus of the theca interna of the secondary follicles. The outer plexus, which anastomosed with several stromal capillaries, consisted of a thin, coarse and basket-like capillary plexus. The outer plexus was formed from the stromal capillary plexus as a consequence of the rapid enlargement of developing antral follicles.
