- Abstract
The present was undertaken to elucidate the occurrence of pyelonephritis in sheep. A total number of 1,298 specimens of kidney of sheep were examined irrespective of age, sex and breeds in North-West Rajasthan. Out of these, 211 specimens of kidney suspected for abnormalities were further processed for histopathological examination. Pyelonephritis was recorded in 13 (6.16 per cent) cases. Grossly, the kidneys were enlarged, congested and the capsule could be stripped readily. The calyces were dilated and filled with a greasy purulent mass. Microscopically, the pelvis epithelium and renal parenchyma were infiltrated with inflammatory cells and congested with desquamation of pelvic epithelium.
