Description
Summary:&lt;!-- @page { margin: 2cm } --&gt; &lt;p class="western" align="justify"&gt;Examining part of the genital system (ovaries, Fallopian tubes, uterus and cervix) of 3.308 cross-bred Brahama cows, slaughtered in slaughterhouses, the authors, among other findings, registered the following observations: Pregnant cows - normal: 2.024 (94.1%); with alterations: 129 (5.9%). Non-pregnant cows - normal: 446 (39.0%); with alterations: 709 (61.0%). They also found that in the pregnant cows the majority of lesions were in the ovaries (4.5%) and likewise with the non-pregnant cows (44.0%). We would like to state that the corpora lutea mentioned on table IV were, apparently active.&lt;/p&gt;<br>&lt;!-- @page { margin: 2cm } --&gt; &lt;p class="western" align="justify"&gt;Examinando parte do sistema genital (ovários, tubas, útero e cervix) de 3.308 vacas azebuadas, abatidas em matadouro, os autores realizaram, dentre outras, as seguintes verificações: Vacas gestantes – normais: 2.024 (94,1%); com alterações: 129 (5,9%). Vacas não gestantes – normais: 446 (30,9%); com alterações: 709 (61,0%). Observaram ainda que, nas vacas gestantes, a maioria das lesões localizavam-se nos ovários (4,5%) o mesmo acontecendo com as não gestantes (44,0%). Por outro lado, chama-se a atenção para o quadro n° IV em que os corpos lúteos citados eram aparentemente ativos.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="western" align="justify"&gt;PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Azebuado; ovário; tuba; cervix.&lt;/p&gt;
