Description
Summary:Hepatic granuloma is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by a granulomatous reaction. A total of ( 5 ) seagull birds were collected from different locales at Basrah city under this study with clinical signs anroxia and maciatiun. The pathological sections showed many changes; presence of scattered granuloma in the parenchyma mostly midzonal and in periportal regions. Those granulomas consist of macrophages with central necrosis, some of those macrophages were with epithelial appearance or what is called epithelioid cells. In conclusion the hepatic granulomas under this study suspected to be caused by infection with E. coli.
