Hi I-sanna - 


I don't have any images readily available - there is a nice little review with some histopathology here, however:

What I can tell you is that in many cases  can be a very very subtle disease - often there are just a few lymphocytes around the nerve ganglia - very very subtle. if you look at just a normal proventriculus histology book - an animal with really remarkable with have a thinned, stretched out proventriculus, but the histology can look very similar. It's easier to diagnose grossly (in my experience anyway), because the amount of inflammation histopathologically doesn't always match up with the degree of dilatation (ie animals with a marked dilation can have minimal inflammation). 


make sense?

Hi all,


Does anyone have histological images of proventricular dilatation and also images of the normal for comparison?


Thanks
