--- The aim of this study was to determine histopathological lesions and bacterial isolates in some tissues of gamitana (Colossoma macropomum). Forty clinically healthy juvenile fishes were collected from the Experimental Station IVITA-Pucallpa, Ucayali (Perú), taking samples of the kidney, liver, spleen, stomach, gills and muscle. The histopathological findings in the liver were hydropic degeneration (39/40) and congestion (31/40); the findings in the kidney were hydropic degeneration and tubular necrosis (40/40) and tubule cell regeneration (6/40), with an increase of melano-macrophage centres in the periphery of the tubules; the findings in the spleen were congestion (4/40); the findings in the stomach were epithelial necrosis of the mucosa (3/40) and gastric glands necrosis (2/40); the findings in the gills were infiltration of inflammatory cells in branchial filament (40/40), congestion in filament (12/40), interlamellar epithelium hyperplasia (40/40), (18/40) and loss of lamellas (2/40); and finally in the muscle the findings were necrosis (16/40) and muscle atrophy (5/40). The hepatocytes had dark pigments in the cytoplasme (40/40); and hyaline pigments in the tubular cells of the kidney (2/40) and estomach (25/40). Also, the results showed myxosporean parasites in gills (2/40), kidney (40/40) and muscle (12/40); and monogenean parasites in gills (6/40). The bacteria isolated were: Pseudomona fluorescens/putida, Edwardsiella tarda, Plesiomona shigelloides, Salmonella arizonae, Aeromonas hydrophila, Bacilus cereus, Serratia sp., Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica. It was concluded that the histopathology is a diagnostic technique to determine lesions caused by infectious or non-infectious agents in gamitanas under culture. Also, the study showed non-infectious lesions in the stomach and kidney. These results suggested an association with alterations in protein metabolism; and the branchial lesions, from mild to moderate, suggested an association with low quality of the water; and finally were isolated potentially pathogenic bacteria in fishes such as: Aeromonas hydrophila and Edwardsiella tarda in gills and organs, but also there was no relation between the isolated bacteria and the histopathological findings in any of the tissues.
