  • Title: Neoplasms in the oviducts of turkeys.
    Author: Beasley JN, Klopp S, Terry B.
    Journal: Avian Dis; 1986; 30(2):433-7. PubMed ID: 3729891.
    Abstract:
    The reproductive tracts of turkey breeder hens from five flocks were examined grossly and histologically. Hens from one flock had a normal reproductive history, but hens from the four other flocks had poor records in both egg production and hatchability. Nodular growths occurred in the oviducts of birds in all five flocks. The incidence of lesions varied from flock to flock and from bird to bird. In four flocks, lesions were small and consisted of areas of dysplasia with adenomatous change. Histologically, the lesions in some birds in the fifth flock were adenocarcinomas. No metastases were observed.
