  • Title: Necrotizing hepatitis in a domestic pigeon (Columba livia).
    Author: Himmel L, O'Connor M, Premanandan C.
    Journal: Vet Pathol; 2014 Nov; 51(6):1171-3. PubMed ID: 24457158.
    Abstract:
    An adult male domestic pigeon (Columba livia) was presented for necropsy following natural death after a period of chronic weight loss and severe intestinal ascariasis. Histopathologic examination of the liver found moderate to marked, multifocal necrotizing hepatitis with large, basophilic intranuclear inclusion bodies. Transmission electron microscopy of affected hepatocytes demonstrated numerous intra- and perinuclear icosahedral virions arranged in a lattice structure, consistent with adenoviral infection.
