dc.description.abstractA survey on occurrence of pathological conditions of trachea and lungs of slaughtered and post mortem cases of sheep were investigated in the present study. A total of 156 cases of trachea and lungs were collected for histopathology from the Jammu region, Jammu & Kashmir state, India with age ranged from 6 months to 2 and a half years. Among them, 8.97% trachea and 37.82% lungs were found to be apparently abnormal in naked eye. In trachea, the gross lesions like congestion and /haemorrhages (5.13%), frothiness (3.20%) and foreign bodies (1.92%) and histopathologically, congestion/haemorrhage (8.97%), acute tracheitis (7.05%) and sub-acute fibrinous tracheitis (4.49%) were recorded. Grossly lungs showed emphysema (23.08%), atelectasis (2.56%), cysts (4.49%), congestion (8.97%), haemorrhage (4.49%), red hepatization (10.26%) and grey hepatization (11.53%), adhesion with pleura/ thickening of pleura (0.64%), abscesses (1.28%) and growth (0.64%). Histopathological examination of lungs revealed emphysema (24.36%), atelectasis (3.21%), haemosiderosis (4.49%), congestion (12.18%), edema (8.97%), bronchitis (5.76%) brochiolitis (9.62%), haemorrhagic pneumonia (7.69%), bronchopneumonia (1.92%), fibrinous bronchopneumonia (3.84%), fibrinous purulent bronchopneumonia (1.92%), suppurative broncho-pneumonia (2.56), interstitial pneumonia (8.33%), granulomatous pneumonia (1.28%), verminous pneumonia [parasitic pneumonia (2.56%), and hydatid cysts (6.41%)], bronchiolar cell hyperplasia (0.64%) and bronchiolar-alveolar carcinoma (0.64%). For the morphological descriptions, the lesions were categorized into various types; however a single section showed intermixure of various lesions.en_US
