The liver lesions consisted of 36 with milkspots 16 with perihepatitis 12 with abscessations 11 with cholangiohepatitis 8 with cholangitis 5 with nodular hyperplasia 4 with focal necrosis 3 with post-necrotic scarring 2 with lipidosis and one case each of cystic bile duct hyperplasia massive necrosis and hepatocarcinoma. Milkspots due to migration of Ascaris suum larvae was a major problem in porker (41) fourteen (39) of the milkspot livers were severely affected having a 4 lesion score with all the lobes affected. Perihepatitis was seen only in porkers while nodular hyperplasia only in sows. Escherichia coli and Klebsiella sp. were the common bacteria isolated from the abscesses.
