Popis: There is limited data on minimally invasive coelioscopy in smaller exotic birds like budgerigar. This study was taken primarily to collect baseline data of internal organs of budgerigar during a diagnostic coelioscopic procedure. A 2.7 mm 180 mm rigid endoscope (Karl Storz) was used for the procedure where in lung, liver, heart, kidney, gonad and intestines were visualized and evaluated. Special emphasis is placed on assessing feasibility and safety of applying advanced diagnostic procedures in small birds.
