Abstract
Hemorrhagic enteritis and hepatitis of suspected adenovirus etiology were the apparent cause of death of 9 captive American kestrels. Cloacal hemorrhage was the only prominent gross lesion; disseminated hepatocellular necrosis, and intranuclear inclusion bodies were evident microscopically. EM revealed numerous adenovirus-like particles associated with the hepatic lesions. Attempts to serologically identify the agent were unsuccessful.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
