- Abstract
During present investigation, total 1214 specimens of the urinary system of buffaloes were examined macroscopically. Out of which, total 368 specimens of kidneys showing macroscopic lesions were processed for further histopathological examination. Histopathological examination revealed acute glomerulonephritis, subacute glomerulonephritis and chronic glomerulonephritis in 6.52, 7.88 and 6.25 per cent specimens, respectively. In acute glomerulonephritis, kidneys were found to be enlarged and pale. Glomerulus was ischaemic and cellularity of the glomeruli was increased. In sub-acute glomerulonephritis, the kidneys were large white due to enlargement and glomerular capillaries were hyperaemic, and proliferation of endothelial and epithelial cell was more pronounced. In chronic glomerulonephritis, kidneys were shrunken and contracted with fine granular surface, capsule was adherent and the glomeruli were fibrosed leading to decreased cellularity of glomerular tuft.
