title: [10 years of rabbit autopsy--a review of frequent disease and mortality causes].
abstract: Between 1982 and 1991 3403 diseased and dead rabbits from the field were dissected. The most important findings were intestinal coccidiosis (24.1%), dysentery (20.5%), liver coccidiosis (6.9%), mucoid enteritis (5.0%), acute pasteurellosis (4.2%), pneumonia (4.0%), rhinitis (3.6%) and adiposis (3.3%). The incidence of these diseases is similar to the most important rabbit diseases in other European countries. Short recommendations on prophylactic and therapeutic measures are given.
