profuse mucopurulent nasal/ocular discharge
kratoconjunctivities with corneal opacity

28
Q

What is the cause of atrophic rhinitis

A

when Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida type D team up to stimulate osteoclasts, inhibit osteoblasts for the degeneration and remodeling of nasal tubinates

Elongated Soft Palate
Everted laryngeal saccules and laryngeal edema
Hyoplastic trachea

30
Q

Palatoschisis

A

cleft palate, development abnormality

31
Q

What lung lesion distribution does bovine shipping fever have

A

Cranioventral distribution- bronchopneumonia- arrived via the airways

32
Q

What lung lesion distribution does distemper virus have

A

interstitial pneumonia- diffuse

33
Q

What results from a pasture righ in L-tryptophan

A

It is converted to 3-methylindole in the rumen and enters circulation where it is metabolized by the Clara cells into a toxic intermediate causing dmage to the pneumocytes and endothelium causing necrosis and acute edema and emphysema

34
Q

What are 3 sources of embolic pneumonia

A

1) Hepatic abscesses
2) infected jugular thrombus
3) Vavular endocarditis

35
Q

4 causes of pulmonary hypertension

A

1) Cardiac disease: Left heart failure, left to right shunts
2) Lung disease: hypoxia from high disease, pulmonary fibrosis
3) Thromboembolism: obstruction of pulomnary arteries
4) Hypervolemia: overhydration from IV fluids

36
Q

What are the 3 causes of obstructive respiratory failure

A

Obstruction of movement of air in the airways or alveoli
1) Exudative pneumonia where exudate fills alveoli- common with bronchopneumonia
2) Pulmonary edema where edema in alveoli
3) Bronchitis or brocnhiolitis (exudates, mucous, and hyperplastic epithelium that obstruct the airway) ex: COPD/Heaves

Q

congenital heart failure where all four chambers are enlarged
thin flabby muscle
Dobermann Pinschers

A

Dilated cardiomyopathy (primary)

55
Q

failure of ductus arteriosus to close after inspiration of oxygen at birth
connection between pulmonary artery and aorta

Q

PDA results in a connection between what two structures

A

pulmonary artery and aorta

57
Q

How can a dog with a PDA have no cyanosis

A

there is a small opening where the systemic vascular resistance is greater than the pulmonary resistance. Blood does not go from pulmonary artery to the aorta (left to right shunt)

58
Q

How can a dog with a PDA have cyanosis

A

there is right to left shunt because pulomary vascular resistance elevates in response to arterial hypertension
pulmonary resistance becomes equal to or greater than systemic resistance
