EXTENSIVE VENTRAL ABDOMINAL LYMPHOSARCOMA IN A JERSEY BULL AND ITS SURGICO-CHEMOTHERAPEUTIC MANAGEMENT

摘要

Lymphosarcoma is a significant disease in domestic animals caused by retrovirus of corona group called bovine leukemia virus (BLV). Genetic predisposition is also essential for causation of lymphosarcoma apart from viral infection, (Thomson, 1988. Chauhan, 1997). It is an immunodeficiency like virus (Rovid, 1996). The present paper deals with a case of extensive lymphosarcoma and its successful surgical and chemotherapeutic management.
