  • Title: Idiopathic megaesophagus in a rat (Rattus norvegicus).
    Author: Harkness JE, Ferguson FG.
    Journal: Lab Anim Sci; 1979 Aug; 29(4):495-8. PubMed ID: 513620.
    Abstract:
    Necropsy and histopathologic examination of a rat (Rattus norvegicus) revealed megaesophagus and gangrenous bronchopneumonia. The esophageal dilitation, mural atrophy with persistence of neural structures, regurgitation and bronchopneumonia seen in this case were similar to findings in other animals with megaesophagus.
