The age of these affected pigs along with the rapid course of
hemorrhagic and necrotic enteritis help you come to this
conclusion. As with many Clostridial diseases, vaccination is the
most effective means of control.
Other important clostridial diseases of swine include C. perfringens
type A,
C. difficile, C. tetani, C. botulinum, C. novyi, C. septicum, and C.
chauvoei.
,The correct answer is dopamine. Adrenergic vasopressors are
frequently used to treat hypotension during anesthesia. Drugs in
this category are dopamine, dobutamine, ephedrine,
phenylephrine, and norepinephrine. Atropine and glycopyrrolate
are anticholinergic drugs. Hydralazine is a vasodilator used to
treat hypertension.
Dermanyssus gallinae (the common red mite) maintains the majority
of the population in the environment so it is important to monitor
and treat the environment including the cracks and crevices where
mites tend to reside. Ornithonyssus sylviarum mites (northern fowl
mites) spend their entire life cycle on the bird. This allows them to
multiply more rapidly and makes it essential to treat the birds
themselves to control the problem.
,The correct answer is hypothyroidism. The clinical signs, physical
exam findings, and lab work abnormalities are classical for
hypothyroidism. Other common abnormalities seen with
hypothyroidism include pyoderma, neuromuscular signs (ataxia,
knuckling, vestibular signs, etc), markedly elevated triglycerides, and
a mild normocytic, normochromic anemia.
Hyperthyroidism rarely occurs in dogs. You would expect to see
polyuria, polydipsia, and polyphagia with hyperadrenocorticism.
, This is a case of lymphoma. The cytology depicts the classic finding
of a population of lymphoid cells that are predominantly
lymphoblasts based on their size and characteristics. If you were
unsure about their size due to magnification, there is a neutrophil in
the lower left corner for comparison.
The lymphoblasts are considerably larger than the neutrophil.
Mature lymphocytes would be smaller than a neutrophil. Note that
there is a mitotic figure in the middle of the slide.
There are many treatments and protocols for lymphoma and some
of the main agents known to have efficacy are prednisone,
doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, L-asparaginase, and
lomustine. There are many other efficacious chemotherapeutics for
lymphoma but carboplatin is not considered a first line treatment
for lymphoma in dogs.
The other drugs listed are antifungal (itraconazole), antibiotic
(doxycycline) and anti-parasitic (milbemycin).
