%X Hepatic lipidosis (HL) is common in birds fed all seed, high caloric or
high-fat diets, especially psittacine birds. The most common cause of avian HL
is obesity related to over feeding. This case report describes the clinical and
pathological features of 10 Common Myna (<i>Acridotheres tristis</i>) fed by
commercial broiler diet and were presented for depression and anorexia, with
severe hepatopathy associated hepatic lipidosis (HL). The patients died 4 days
after presentation, and severe hepatomegaly was observed at necropsy. Based on
histopathological findings, the acute hepatic lipidosis (HL) was found.
