Resumo
Gastric obstructions in reptiles due to the ingestion of foreign bodies may be the result of inadequate nutritional management, stress or by mistake in food seizures. If it is difficult to diagnose the obstruction through radiography, the animal may die. This paper reports the case of a gastric obstruction by a cashew nut (Anacardium occidentale), occupying the entire lumen of the stomach in a female green iguana (Iguana iguana), of free life and in gestational period, identified only during necropsy.(AU)
