repulsion

26
Q

turning of fetus on long axis is termed what

A

rotation

27
Q

rotate fetus perpendicular to its long axis to correct transverse presentation is termed what

A

version

28
Q

what is the most common issue/complication with obstetrics intervention

A

retained placenta

29
Q

posterior presentation risks

A

tail head interference
risk of hypoxia due to umbilical cord pinched

30
Q

transverse presentation risk

A

no ferguson reflex

31
Q

main exit vein in the cow?

A

SQ abdominal v (milk v)

32
Q

main blood supply to the cow udder?

A

external pudendal a. & v.

33
Q

what vessels anastomose to form the milk v with age

A

cranial and caudal epigastric veins

34
Q

milk producing cells in the udder

A

alveolus

35
Q

what cells surround the alveoli and are stimulated by oxytocin

A

myoepithelial cells

36
Q

all mammary tissue is derived from what?

A

ectoderm

fat pad & median suspensory ligament from mesoderm

37
Q

what are the main stages of mammary development

A

band stage
lines
bud stage

38
Q

components of bovine and equine colostrum

A

all IgG, most IgM, half of IgA

39
Q

basic components of bovine milk

A

water (88%)
lactose
fat
protein
minerals

40
Q

components of canine colostrum

A

IgA

41
Q

what differentiates into teat and gland cisterns during fetal development and growth

A

primary sprouts
(galactophores)

42
Q

lactogenesis inhibitory and stimulatory hormones

A

progesterone - inhibitory

estrogen, prolactin, placental lactogen - stimulatory

43
Q

hormone that stimulated milk letdown? inhibits milkdown?

A

oxytocin

epinephrine

44
Q

how does involution occur

A

increased hydrostatic pressure
ductal cells resorb
lysosomal enzymes break down & digest epithelial cells decrease
secretion absorbed by lymphatic and venous drainage

45

active
steady state
redevelopment
colostrogenesis

estrogen (zeralenone)
cystic ovaries
suckling by herdmates/self
genetics

48

A

sow mastitis/metritis/agalactia syndrome

ergotism in mares

50
Q

MOA of ergotism in mares and treatment

A

Neotyphodium coenophialum = dopamine agonist, inhibits prolactin

Domperidone (dopamine antagonist)

51
Q

milk letdown failure in cattle due to?

A

stress - epinephrine

exogenous oxytocin

52
Q

number one differential for udder asymmetry
