severe pain of the right eye (see image). There are numerous treatment options.
Which medication would be contraindicated for this case? - ANSWERS✔-
Neomycin and polymyxin B and dexamethasone (Neo-Poly-Dex)
\.Obstructive urolithiasis (see image of stones in bladder) is most likely to occur in
which of the following animals? - ANSWERS✔-Wether goat
\.Which of the following dog breeds is predisposed to copper storage disease? -
ANSWERS✔-Bedlington terriers
\.Artificial insemination is the standard practice in the commercial production of

\.Which of the following animals have incomplete cartilaginous rings around the
trachea? - ANSWERS✔-Viper
Vipers and other snakes (and lizards, mammals and humans) have incomplete
cartilaginous rings around their trachea.
,\.A 5-year old gelding is presented for a nodular mass lesion on its lateral neck
region. A biopsy of the regions reveals collagen degeneration and granulomatous
inflammation with eosinophils. Which of the following is not a reasonable
treatment option for this horse? - ANSWERS✔-Chlorhexidine scrub and warm
compressing
This is an eosinophilic granuloma
Treatment may include systemic antibiotics, surgical excision, or sublesional
corticosteroid injections.
\.What type of urolith is common in ferrets? - ANSWERS✔-Struvite
\.Rufus, a 10 year-old male neutered Labrador retriever, was presented to your
hospital for acute abdominal pain, vomiting, and distended abdomen. The owners
had a large family gathering for Thanksgiving and Rufus spent a significant portion
of the day begging for table scraps from the little nieces and nephews; and the
owners also noted that their grandmother spent a lot of time feeding the dog as
well. You've known Rufus for a long time and you've never seen him so lethargic.
You are immediately suspicious of pancreatitis. His PLI snap test is a strong
positive, and his complete blood count and chemistry panel show the following:
CBC-HCT 31 (36-50%)
WBC 21,800 (7,000-17,000/uL)
PLT 23,000 (200,000-900,000/uL)
, CHEM-BUN 20 (10-22 mg/dL) CREA 2.1 (0.5-2.2 mg/dL) TP 6.3 (5.5-7.3 g/dL) ALT
32 (3-33 IU/L)ALP 70 (10-80 IU/L)GLU 120 (60-125 mg/dL)Amylase- 2300 (337-
1469 U/L)Lipase 1410 (138-755 U/L)
Based on these results, - ANSWERS✔-PT (prothrombin time), PTT (activated
partial thromboplastin time), FDP (fibrin degradation product)
Diseases that cause severe inflammation can induce disseminated intravascular
coagulation (DIC) complex. The severe inflammation from pancreatitis can cause
massive endothelial injury, resulting in vasculitis.
\.A horse presents with vestibular signs. Which of the following findings allows the
clinician to differentiate between central vestibular and peripheral vestibular
disease? - ANSWERS✔-Proprioceptive deficits
\.A valuable Merino ram which has been on a high protein diet is brought to you
because it has scabs on the mucocutaneous junction of the prepuce that were
only recently noticed. The owner checked him closely when the ram appeared to
experience pain upon attempting to breed, and had become reluctant to breed. It
is the only animal affected, and the lambs, ewes, and 2 other rams appear normal.
When you examine the lesions you find painful ulcers under the foul smelling
scabs. Which of the following choices is the treatment of choice? - ANSWERS✔-
Isolation, reduce the dietary protein, and administer penicillin
The high protein diet allows C. renale to proliferate and split urea to form
ammonia, which ulcerates the area.
