Abstract :
Abomasal ulcers are usually seen in dairy cattle with high production following the stress of parturition. Primary and secondary abomasal ulcers are seen in cows and suckling calves. Some ulcers are life-threatening, but the majority are without any clinical signs and only diagnosed in slaughterhouse. The purpose of this study was to determine the occurrence of abomasal ulcers in local cattle slaughtered at noor city abattoir. For this purpose, the abomasum of 200 cows (92 bulls and 108 cows) aged 2.5 to 11 years (5.21±2.5) were investigated randomly after slaughter. For accurate diagnosis and grading of the lesions, tissue samples were prepared for histopathological investigation. Six cases (3%) of the examined abomasa had various types of abomasal ulcers. In this study, abomasal ulcer type 1 was observed with the highest frequency (3 cases). Type 2 and type 3 were seen in 2 and 1 case respectively. There was no type 4 abomasal ulcer. The highest number of ulcers was seen in pylorus and cardia. The highest percentage of abomasal ulcer was observed in cattle older than 9 years (4.77%). Significant difference was observed in the occurrence of abomasal ulcers in different ages (p<0.05). There was no significant association between sex and the incidence of abomasal ulcers.
