ABSTRACT Background Understanding antimicrobial use practices in goats is essential to ensuring appropriate stewardship. Objective To describe prescriptions periparturient does admitted veterinary teaching hospitals and determine if any factors were associated with the administration of antimicrobials general or ceftiofur particular. Animals One hundred ninety‐eight presented nine university from October 2021 June 2022. Methods A multicenter cross‐sectional study a prospective design. Data...
Goats are increasingly popular as both production animals and pets. The frequency of factors associated with periparturient reproductive complications in goats largely unreported.(1) To report the does presented to university veterinary hospitals (2) identify uterine tears study population.A total 198 9 from October 2021 June 2022.Multicenter, cross-sectional study, data collected questionnaires completed by attending veterinarians. Logistic regression was used diagnosis tears.Ninety-three...
Abstract Background Down cow syndrome is commonly described in dairy cattle. The diagnosis and treatment of nonambulatory cattle challenging prognostic indicators this condition beef have not been determined. Objectives Evaluate records (≥2 years age) presented to 2 referral hospitals for inability stand identify survival discharge. Animals Sixty‐three adult treated at hospitals. Methods Medical 63 between January 2010 December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Continuous categorical...
Periparturient reproductive complications appear to be common in hospitalized goats. More information is needed about periparturient and survival goats with these conditions.
Abstract Background Pigs have an indiscriminate eating behavior placing them at high risk of developing foreign body (FB) obstructions. Objectives Describe the clinical and diagnostic features, treatments, outcome pet pigs diagnosed with gastrointestinal (GI) FBs. Medical surgical pig outcomes, post‐mortem findings were also investigated. Animals Seventeen pigs. Methods A multicenter retrospective study was conducted. Gastrointestinal FBs defined as swallowed objects that became lodged...
In order to measure megakaryocyte DNA content in a greater number of well-defined patients, the use bone marrow aspirates obtained postmortem is basic requirement. We could show that distinction between ploidy classes histograms possible until 18 h postmortem. Thus, up 12 after death can be expected give reliable results. Megakaryocytes following patient groups were studied: 15 patients with metastatic tumors and paraneoplastic thrombosis, without thrombosis 10 controls. An increased...
Abstract Background There exists a scarcity of information on risk factors associated with case outcomes in goats diagnosed encephalitic listeriosis. Objective Evaluate 36 cases suspected listeriosis presented to referral hospital. Animals Thirty‐six (26 does, 7 bucks, and 3 wethers) were Auburn University Large Animal Teaching Hospital between 2008 2021 for treatment neurologic disease as based any combination clinical signs, cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) analysis, or postmortem examination....

Abstract A 3‐year‐old Pygmy Wether was presented for chronic hindlimb paralysis. neurological exam revealed nonambulatory paraplegia with absent deep pain nociception, lack of withdrawal reflexes, and paraspinal on palpation T3 to L3 neurolocalization. MRI the lumbar spine an extensive, dorsal dorsolateral, severely compressive, heterogeneously contrast‐enhancing extradural lesion intervertebral foraminal extension into surrounding musculature. Vertebral bone marrow involvement also noted in...
Abstract A 6‐year‐old Hereford embryo donor cow was referred to Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine for a mass in the tip her left uterine horn. The had recently undergone an collection which yielded unfertilized, degenerated ova. Transrectal palpation and ultrasound revealed multi‐locular enveloped by two separate compartments that resembled amniotic allantoic cavity within uterus. Tissue collected via flush submitted histopathology. tissue determined be placenta, confirming...
Abstract A 4‐year‐old American Yorkshire barrow ( Sus scrofa domesticus ) presented for masses on the left ventral palpebra and convex pinnae bilaterally. Multiple incisional biopsies were consistent with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. The pig was hospitalised three sessions of electrochemotherapy, intralesional bleomycin chemotherapy conducted over 1 month. No significant complications from occurred. Long‐term follow‐up newly developing lesions periocular skin included treatment CO 2...
To document a case of limbal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in an adult Black Baldy cow treated with photodynamic therapy (PDT) as adjunctive following surgical excision. Animals Studied. One privately owned 8-year-old female, entire, cow. Procedures. A complete ophthalmic examination was performed on for assessment mass affecting the left eye. Following routine partial incision superficial lamellar keratectomy and conjunctivectomy under local analgesia using Peterson retrobulbar block,...
Inguinal hernias are extremely rare in male South American Camelids (SACs). It is important to differentiate and classify herniation, since treatment depends on the diagnosis. Hernias can be either congenital or acquired. Congenital due defects during embryogenesis, whereas acquired occur postnatally trauma, dilation and/or weakness of soft tissue. further classified as direct indirect. Direct herniation occurs when herniated contents go through a tear rent usually an emergency,...
Abstract A 3‐month‐old, Yorkshire cross barrow was evaluated for diarrhoea and vomiting, which were observed intermittently during after consumption of feed water. Weight loss, despite good appetite, also reported. Abdominal radiographs demonstrated stomach distention gas within the duodenal lumen. Thickening pyloric antrum proximal duodenum noticed using abdominal ultrasonography. Esophageal endoscopy severe reduction aborad esophageal lumen, precluded endoscopic evaluation stomach....
