pubmed:abstractText |
Iron deposition in the tissues of 30 Afghan pikas (Ochotona rufescens rufescens) was examined histopathologically. In all cases, iron deposits were present in the liver and in two-thirds of cases, there was portal fibrosis with tissue injury. In animals, in general, tissue injury induced by iron overload is usually mild and only in a few exceptional species does hepatic haemochromatosis occur. Thus, Afghan pikas are a rare example of reaction to iron overloading.
