Bovine digital dermatitis (DD) is a contagious and multifactorial disease that leads to painful, ulcerative lesions of the skin near heel-horn border foot, most commonly in dairy cattle. With regard beef cattle, pathogenesis etiology DD has not been widely reported or studied over past several decades. A longitudinal field trial commercial feedlot was conducted compare prevalence effects steers provided diet supplemented with novel formulation inorganic organic trace mineral sources (OTM...
The objectives of this study were to report a recipe for making antibiotic impregnated Plaster Paris (AI-PoP) beads using penicillin, ampicillin, tetracycline, tulathromycin, and florfenicol determine the in vitro elution rates those antibiotics beads. AI-PoP made powder, antibiotic, water, cured 24 h, sterilized by ethylene oxide, stored up 5 months before testing. For each 20 combined with bovine serum sterile tubes incubated at 37°C on rocker. Serum was replaced intervals over 14 days...
A two and a half-year old Simmental bull was presented to Iowa State University's Food Animal Camelid Hospital for anorexia lethargy of several days. Clostridium perfringens type identified via fecal culture toxin genotyping. Hemorrhagic bowel syndrome (HBS) diagnosed based on microbiological results along with abdominal ultrasonography, complete blood count, serum biochemistry. Aggressive multi-modal therapy employed including intravenously administered fluid therapy, potassium penicillin,...
A nine‐month‐old Boer Buck presented for an acute onset of pelvic limb ataxia. Radiographs, complete blood count and serum biochemistry were within normal limits. cerebrospinal fluid analysis yielded eosinophilic pleocytosis, consistent with nematodiasis. Treatment ivermectin, non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatories, fenbendazole range motion exercises resulted in partial recovery function five days. Within months post treatment the buck’s ambulation had returned to a gait.
The objective of this case report was to describe successful surgical and post-operative management a medial patellar luxation in Vietnamese Potbellied Pig. A two-year old, castrated, Pig presented veterinary teaching hospital for right pelvic limb lameness 2 weeks duration. Upon physical examination grade 3 diagnosed on the limb. Surgical repair included trochlear wedge sulcoplasty, tibial tuberosity transposition, lateral imbrication as described canine luxation. pig managed...
Abstract Objective To describe the presentation, diagnosis, treatment, and outcome for horses with fibro‐osseous lesions of craniofacial complex. Study design Retrospective multicenter case series. Animals Thirty evaluated skull from January 1, 2001 through December 31, 2019 in four centers. Methods Medical records were reviewed signalment, clinical histological diagnostic imaging findings, treatment instituted, outcome. Long‐term information was obtained by owner questionnaire or medical...
A one‐year‐old crossbred ram presented for acute respiratory distress. Initial diagnostics revealed compression of the pharynx by a spherical, avascular mass. The was initially managed with tracheostomy, antimicrobials and non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatories. Advanced imaging confirmed pharyngeal abscess which lanced via endoscopic‐guided laser procedure. While synergistic haemolysin inhibition (SHI) testing negative, Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis cultured from exudate, indicating false...
A two‐year‐old pregnant Toggenberg doe presented for recumbency, anorexia and hypothermia. The owner noted that the had been experiencing approximately 1 month's duration. Initial diagnostics revealed a leucocytosis with left shift, ketonaemia, as well decreased serum potassium bicarbonate concentrations. Thoracic ultrasound identified moderate pericardial perfusion. expired during an emergency caesarean section. Necropsy 2.5‐cm‐long hypodermic needle fragment migrated from reticulum to...
Abstract Background: The objectives of this study were to create a protocol for making antibiotic impregnated Plaster Paris (AI-PoP) beads using penicillin, ampicillin, tetracycline, tulathromycin, and florfenicol, determine the in vitro elution rates those antibiotics beads, quantify inhibition E. coli T. pyogenes by bead eluent proof-of-concept flow cytometry. AI-PoP made powder, antibiotic, tap water, cured 24 hours, sterilized ethylene oxide, stored up 5 months before testing. For each...
To describe a minimally invasive osteosynthesis (MIO) femoral capital physeal fracture (FCPF) repair technique using multiple smooth Steinmann pins in four calves.Case series.Four calves (< 60 days of age).Medical records at single referral hospital were searched for that had performed between 2020 and 2021. Calves receiving alternative repair, euthanasia without or > age excluded. Medical reviewed together the following information: inciting FCPF cause, patient signalment, clinical sign...
A 12-year pregnant Thoroughbred mare at ~ 340 days of pregnancy was presented for evaluation lethargy, anorexia, and colicsigns. Reproductive examination unremarkable; however, uroperitoneum diagnosed via transabdominal ultrasonography,serum biochemistry, peritoneal fluid analysis. Mare medically stabilized 24 hours. To promote fetal maturation, 80mg dexamethasone given prior to Caesarean section exploratory celiotomy. ventral urinary bladder wall rupture andmultiple descending colon...
