  • A carcass of two months old male goat was presented to the Department of Veterinary Pathology, Veterinary College, Bidar, Karnataka with a history of diarrhoea. The carcass was dehydrated. Visible mucous membranes were pale and the subcutaneous tissue was pale.
  • The liver was enlarged and congested (Fig.1).
  •  
  • Gall bladder was distended. Spleen was greately atrophied.
  • The mesentery was severely congested (Fig.2).

 

  • Mesenteric lymphnodes were enlarged and oedematous.
  • Extensive haemorrhages over not separating the renal cortex and medulla along with great reduction in the size of renal pelvis (Fig.3).
