  • Title: [Pathology of the digestive tract in kangaroos. A review based on our own study results].
    Author: Schoon HA, Murmann W.
    Journal: Tierarztl Prax; 1985; 13(2):241-53. PubMed ID: 2992117.
    Abstract:
    The present paper describes spontaneous pathological findings including etiological aspects in digestive tracts of kangaroos, which have been detected in 166 necropsies during the last 20 years. Protozoan - infections, herpes virus infections, gastroenteritis of unknown etiology and especially the occurrence of the so called "lumpy-jaw" turned out to be of special importance. These findings are discussed with reference to the literature, completed as well by short literature reviews, sub-divided into the different organs and the variable etiology of the diseases, as by a brief description of digestive tract physiology and anatomy in marsupials.
