Lecture 22: Urinary Pathology 4 Flashcards
What species does stephanurus dentatus infect
swine
what is pathogenesis of stephanurus dentatus
- Ingestion of larvae or infected earthworm or dermal penetration of larvae
- Larvae migrate from intestine—> liver—> kidney
- Adults in perirenal fat or in kidney
- Cyst communicates with renal pelvis or ureter
- Release eggs in urine
what are some associated lesions with stephanurus dentatus
milk spots/fibrosis on liver
what is a sequela of stephanurus dentatus
hydronephrosis
from pig- what likely cause
Stephanurus dentatus
what is dioctophyma renale known as
giant kidney worm
Who does dioctophyma renale affect
dog, mink, cat, any fish eating mammals
During necropsy of dog you find this in renal pelvis what wrong
dioctophyma renale
what is sequela of dioctophyma renale
adults in kidneys—> hemorrhagic to suppurative pyelitis—> ureteral obstruction—> parenchymal atrophy and hydronephrosis
what this and where are they found
Pearsonema spp- attach to urinary bladder mucosa> ureter and pelvis
t or f: no clinical signs of pearsonema spp
true
what is the most common primary renal tumor of dog, cattle, and horse
renal carcinoma
From dog what this
renal carcinoma
which species is metastasis common in for renal carcinomas
dogs, rarely cattle
what this and who is it common in
renal nephroblastoma
Common in pigs and chickens»> calves and dogs (GSD)
what does a nephroblastoma arise from
primitive renal tissue- true embryonal tumor
what is histo appearance of renal nephroblastoma
primitive glomeruli and tubules and primitive mesenchyme
renal nephroblastoma can produce __ that increases __
erythropoetin, increase RBC
renal nephroblastoma metastasis common in who and where
dogs- sublumbar LN, liver, lung
What is the most common renal neoplasm of cats and what is cause
lymphoma
Cause: FeLV
what is cause of lymphoma in cattle
BLV
From cat what wrong
Lymphoma
what is in lower urinary tract
ureter, urinary bladder and urethra
female or male: shorter tract predisposes to more infections
