Abstract

The current study was conducted to address the pathological conditions of uterine tubes of cows slaughtered at the abattoir in Sulaimani, Kurdistan Region-Iraq. The pathologic conditions were objected to macroscopic and microscopic examination of 404 samples of female genitalia collected from slaughtered non-pregnant cows. Collection of female genitalia samples was conducted from February to September 2014 by visiting the Qaragol slaughterhouse twice a week. The organs were observed macroscopically for pathological abnormalities and stained tissues with Haematoxyline and eosin. They were examined under microscope for determination of the type of lesion present in the organ. Among the 404 genitalia samples collected from the non-pregnant animals, 206 (51%) were found without gross pathological abnormalities (with cyclic activity) and the 71(17.57) samples were found with gross pathological abnormalities of uterine tubes. Detected lesions in the uterine tubes included salpingitis 9.15%, pyosalpinx 4.21%, hemosalpinx 1.48%, uterine tube adhesion 0.74%, mesosalpinx cyst 0.74%, nodules on mesosalpinx 0.74%, occluded uterine tube 0.25%, and presence of cysts on the uterine tube wall 0.25%. Histopathologically, salpingitis was characterized by erosion of the mucosal layer lining, while pyosalpinx showed a heavy inflammatory cell reaction composed of a mixture of neutrophils and lymphocysts. Hemosalpinx showed the stromal hemorrhage in the core of the villus like folds of epithelium. Cystic uterine tube, (paratubal paramesonephric cyst), revealed a single layer of tubal type ciliated columnar epithelium resting on fibrous tissue of the normal fallopian tube. It was concluded that uterine tube abnormalities constitutes an percentage of 17.57% and salpingitis is the most common pathology of uterine tubes in non-pregnant cows.
