Abstract
In an industrial pig production unit ten sows were selected at random. All the sows had a puerperal disease in their anamnesis. The sows wer e slaughtered after weaning and subjected to pathological examination. The mammary glands, uteri and bladder of ten slaughtered sows were ex amined for gross pathological alterations. All the sows showed symptom s of chronic mastitis (abscess, granuloma, fibrosis or cysts). Four of the examined uteri showed pathological alterations. Nine out of the t en bladders examined revealed pathological findings.
