The Spread of Tumour Metastases via the Renal-portal System in the Fowl

Evidence is presented to show that the renal-portal system of the adult fowl is functional. Experimentally-induced virus tumours (Rous I, MH2 endothelioma and ‘D’ of Duran-Reynals) of the leg musculature metastasize first to the ipselateral kidney. 57 birds had renal metastasis; in 26 the ipselatera...

Zusammenfassung:Evidence is presented to show that the renal-portal system of the adult fowl is functional. Experimentally-induced virus tumours (Rous I, MH2 endothelioma and ‘D’ of Duran-Reynals) of the leg musculature metastasize first to the ipselateral kidney. 57 birds had renal metastasis; in 26 the ipselateral kidney only was affected; in 22 cases other nonrenal organs were also affected, while both kidneys were involved in only 9 birds, in all of which liver, lung and spleen also had secondary growths.
