Abstract

It has been reported that gastric ulceration occurs in pigs with no apparent relationship between incidence and breed. In a series of pigs, with orthotopic renal allografts, it has been bound that severe gastric ulceration with fatal haemorrhage is more common among Large White × Wessex pigs than Large White × Landrace/Wessex pigs. It is concluded that there is a significant breed difference in severity of gastric ulceration. Haemorrhage from such ulceration is a potential cause of death in animals receiving organ transplants.
