Abstract

SummaryTissue sections taken from layers involved in the inelastic constricting band within the anal canal of Jersey cattle affected with rectovaginal constriction (RVC) were studied with transmission and scanning electron microscopy and compared to the same tissues from normal animals. The affected tissues revealed a tangled meshwork of fine fibers on scanning electron micrographs, and a distinct linger‐print‐like pattern of collagen fibers on transmission electron microscopy. There were also randomly organized, small‐diameter fibers present within RVC tissue.
