| Abstract: | Spontaneous
testicular tumors, seminoma, were noticed
in four male hybrid catfish (C. batrachus C. gariepinus ) after the age of two years. The hybrids
showed massive abdominal swelling with catchectic body and free lobulated,
encapsulated tumors (> 325g) within the serosanguinous fluid-filied
peritoneal cavities. The tumor cells were large and polyhedral with prominent
centrally located nuclei. Other vital organs appeared normal. It seems to be the
first report of seminoma in hybrid catfish and possibly of genetic cause. |
