The reproductive tracts of turkey breeder hens from five flocks were examined grossly and histologically. Hens from one flock had a normal reproductive history, but hens from the four other flocks had poor records in both egg production and hatchability. Nodular growths occurred in the oviducts of birds in all five flocks. The incidence of lesions varied from flock to flock and from bird to bird. In four flocks, lesions were small and consisted of areas of dysplasia with adenomatous change. Histologically, the lesions in some birds in the fifth flock were adenocarcinomas. No metastases were observed.
对来自五个鸡群的火鸡种母鸡的生殖道进行了大体和组织学检查。其中一个鸡群的母鸡有正常的繁殖记录，但其他四个鸡群的母鸡在产蛋量和孵化率方面记录不佳。所有五个鸡群的鸟类输卵管中均出现结节状生长。病变的发生率因鸡群和个体而异。在四个鸡群中，病变较小，由发育异常区域伴腺瘤样改变组成。组织学上，第五个鸡群中一些鸟类的病变为腺癌。未观察到转移。
