The aim of this study was to report the occurrence of pregnancy loss in transgenic goat submitted toprenatal ultrasonography monitoring. We used on goat transgenic for human Granulocyte Colony StimulatingFactor (hG-CSF). The animal was submitted to mating after estrous synchronization. Ultrasound examinationswere carried out until D60 of pregnancy by transrectal via and after D60 by transabdominal via. Someparameters were observed such as morphology, organogenesis and formation of skeletal fetuses, viability withcardiac activity and fetus movements. During all sonographic evaluations, the conceptus showed normaldevelopment of their morphology and viability. Goat had fetal development completed by D150, however, therewere problems at birth and the fetus has died. In conclusion, the transgenic fetus remained viable and showednormal development during pregnancy, although still birth.(AU)
