[Pathologico-morphologic changes in the digestive system in rabid foxes].
Pathologico-morphological changes in the digestive tract were investigated in fifty naturally infected common foxes (Vulpes vulpes crucigera). Nineteen animals were found to suffer from mild cachexia, 31 animals suffered from complete cachexia. Erosions were observed in the mucosa of oral cavities of 21 foxes. Traumatic injuries appeared in the teeth of 11 animals. One case of swollen and hyperaemic tongue was described; in three cases there occurred sialo-adenitis. A mild degree of inflammation was recorded in the gullet in three animals. Fifteen animals had empty stomachs, thirty-five animals had atypical food or foreign bodies in the stomach contents; simple hyperaemia was recorded 18 times, acute catarrhal gastritis 19 times and haemorrhagic gastritis was observed in two cases. Acute catarrhal enteritis was found in six cases, haemorrhagic enteritis in one case.
