| description | Pythons are one of the largest snakes in the world. The Indian
rock python bred in zoological garden had suffered from
grievous injury on the frontal area of the head was received.
A chronic stomatitis was evident with grayish lesions on either
side of the lower jaw on the gingival mucosa. The lateral
side of the left upper jaw showed partially sloughed skin
of the lips hanging from the upper jaw indicating a chronic
necrotic reaction. The stomach devoid of ingesta had catarrhal
exudate and gastric ulcerations with mild edema.
Throughout the small intestine there were petechial haemorrhages
and necrotic foci, villous atrophy and the large
intestine harboured several nematodes. Grossly, the lungs
had catarrhal frothy contents, and microscopically showed
alveolar septal thickening, congestion, haemorrhages and
edema. Histological investigation of the stomach and intestine
indicated epithelial sloughing, congestion, catarrh and
bacillary population embedded in the crypts. Liver had focal
hepatitis, haemosiderosis and portal fibrosis with biliary
proliferation. The post mortem investigation revealed that
the cause of death was generalized systemic disease due to
chronic necrotic stomatitis, pneumonia and necro-haemorrhagic
enteritis. |
