In: Mansoura Veterinary Medical Journal 2010.v.12(1)Summary: A total of 569 camel carcasses were examined at Al-Ahsa abattoir for the presence of traumatic injuries. 136 carcasses had injuries in the thigh muscles (77.9%), rump (19.9%), hump (5.1%), thoracic muscles (2.9%) and flank region (2.2%). Most of the injuries were in the form of contusions (81%) but necrosis and suppuration were also observed in the rump and thigh. In three cases, fistulation was occurred in sublumbar muscles. Histologically, contused muscles showed edema and ischaemic necrosis associated with severe haemorrhages. Necrotic muscles showed hyaline degeneration and zenker's necrosis associated with mild inflammatory cell reaction.
