34. Anatomical Pathology And Histopathological Changes Of Ascaridia Galli In Layer Chicken

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the anatomical pathology and histopathological, and their relationship of the ascaridiosis caused by Ascaridia galli worms infection that have been found in layer chickens after necropsy, thus facilitating the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of ascaridiosis. This study used 1 dead chicken from the Lambaro traditional market, Ingin Jaya District, Aceh Besar Regency. The sample was taken to the Pathology Laboratory, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Syiah Kuala University for dissected and observed in anatomical pathology changes, then histopathological preparations were made to observe histopathological changes. Data were obtained then analyzed descriptively and presented in the form of images. The results of anatomical pathology examination in chickens infected with ascaridiosis were found the Ascaridia galli worms infestation in the intestinal lumen with moderate infestation rates and focal area of hemorrhage in the intestinal mucosa. Then, histopathological examination were found desquamation of villous epithelium, hemorrhage in the intestinal mucosa, inflammatory cell infiltration, and proliferation of cryptic cells caused by A. galli worms infection. Based on the results of the examination concluded that there is an association between anatomical and histopathological pathology findings, namely hemorrhage in the intestine.

Hipertrofi sel goblet pada usus halus ayam kampung di pasar tradisional Jakarta yang terinfeksi cacing cestoda

“…Mushattat et al (2022) menyatakan bahwa infeksi berat cestoda dapat menimbulkan perubahan patologis, seperti degenerasi sel epitel dan enteritis yang dicirikan oleh infiltrasi makrofag dan limfosit. Perlekatan skoleks cestoda pada mukosa usus halus dapat menyebabkan kerusakan sel goblet dalam bentuk hipertrofi sel epitel yang bisa mengganggu integritas mukosa usus (Hambal et al, 2019). Infeksi cacing cestoda juga dapat meningkatkan jumlah sel goblet yang menghasilkan musin dan lapisan tunika submukosa usus menjadi lebih tipis (Prastowo & Ariyadi, 2019. Pembesaran sel goblet menyebabkan peningkatan sekresi musin.…”

Effectiveness of Kenikir (Cosmos caudatus Kunth.) Leaf Extract on Duodenal Epithelial Damage of Aspirin Induced Male White Rats (Rattus norvegicus)

“…Mekanisme kerusakan pada mukosa duodenum dimulai dengan terjadinya deskuamasi epitel. Deskuamasi epitel duodenum merupakan kejadian lepasnya sel epitel dari permukaan jaringan dan juga merupakan fungsi proteksi bagi usus terhadap respon pertahanan jaringan dari suatu iritan untuk mencegah kerusakan lanjutan (Hambal et al, 2019); Windari, 2017). Iritasi pada mukosa duodenum disebabkan sifat asam yang dimiliki aspirin tidak larut dan berdifusi kembali ke dalam mukosa duodenum sehingga pertahanan mukosa rusak dan mengakibatkan erosi permukaan epitel (Ijomone et al, 2014).…”
