Journal Title: Annual Research & Review in Biology - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 1
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the different pathological conditions reported in livers of slaughtered camels leading to their total or partial condemnation at abattoir in the present study, 80 liver samples collected randomly from Sudanese camels at Tampool slaughter-house.

Placed in 10% formalin for histopathological studies. 16 out of 80 (20%) camel livers examined histopathologically, were infected with hydatid cyst the larval stage of Echinoccocus granulosus characterized by presence of distinct rostellar hook. microscopic studies of cysts were done. No doubt, hydatidosis is a public health problem that affects also the human welfare and economy.
