Abstract
Many liver illnesses in camels are not recognized ante-mortem and are frequently missed due to vague or nonspecific symptoms. So, determining the histological appearance is a very important first step in the study of camel hepatitis. This study documents the histological changes associated with acute hepatitis in liver samples from camels (Camelus dromedaries) in Egypt's Aswan district. Liver samples were kept in 10 mL of formalin. The paraffin liver slices were stained on slides with hematoxylin and eosin. This is a common histological method for defining various tissue types and morphological changes.
Acute hepatitis was detected in three out of the 43 camels slaughtered at the Aswan Government's Draw slaughterhouse. Acute hepatitis is characterized by a combination of inflammation, hepatocellular apoptosis, necrosis, and a varied mononuclear infilammatory infiltration, mainly lymphocytic, accompanied by a low number of plasma cells.
Kupffer-cell activation, bile-duct damage, and the ductular reaction are additional characteristics.
