All the samples were examined grossly and microscopically to study inflammatory conditions of intestine with reference to the type, pattern and morphology. Study was carried out from September 2013 to January 2014, all samples of intestinal tract were examined irrespective of age, breed and sex of camel. Out of 172 samples 103 samples representative of gross lesions were processed for subsequent histopathological examination. An overall incidence of inflammatory conditions of intestinal tract was observed as 32.04 per cent (33 out of 103). The occurrence of different type of enteritis i.e. acute catarrhal enteritis, chronic catarrhal enteritis, haemorrhagic enteritis, necro-haemorrhagic enteritis, necrotic enteritis and eosinophilic enteritis, was 15.54, 4.85, 5.83, 2.91, 1.94 and 0.97 per cent, respectively.
