Q

What is the most important pattern of arteriosclerosis and what is it characterized by?

A

Atherosclerosis is the most important pattern of arteriosclerosis and is characterized by the presence of atheromas (or atheromatous (fibrofatty) plaques) within the intima and media. These plaques contain cholesterol and other lipids.

80
Q

A

Incomplete expansion of the lungs or portions of the lungs.

81
Q

How will atelectic(atelectasis) lungs appear? (Color, consistency, etc.)

A

Pulmonary parenchyma appears dark red and sunken in comparison to the aerated lung. Consistency is fleshy and that the lung tissue does not float (will sink if placed in water).

Q

What are the four different types of atelectasis?

A

Congenital, acquired, compressive, and massive.

83
Q

What can cause compressive atelectasis and give 3 examples.

It is caused by space occupying lesions. In some examples are hydrothorax, hemothorax, and pleuritis.

84
Q

Give an example of massive atelectasis.

A

Pneumothorax

85
Q

Where are you most likely to find pulmonary atelectasis?

A

Bovine fetus; also in stillborn animals.

89
Q

What is pulmonary emphysema?

A

Permanent enlargement of air spaces distal to the terminal bronchial, accompanied by destruction of alveolar walls.

It is thought to be an imbalance between proteases and anti-proteases (like Alpha1 anti-trypsin)-> neutrophil derived serine proteases, particularly elastase and matrix metalloproteninases from a variety of sources are the likely culprits. Their concentrations are enhanced by neutrophil and macrophage activation induced in chronic bronchitis.

90
Q

Why is a emphysematous lung (pulmonary emphysema) consider to be dysfunctional?

A

The loss of alveolar septa reduces the alveolar surface area-> reduction in gas exchange.

91
Q

Pulmonary emphysema in animals is always ______ to obstruction of outflow of air or agonal at slaughter.

A

Secondary

92
Q

Pulmonary emphysema is frequent in animals with what?

A

Bronchopneumonia

93
Q

What is bronchopneumonia?

A

Airflow imbalance-> the volume of air entering the lungs exceeds the volume exiting the lung during expiration.

94
Q

What can pulmonary emphysema be classified as? (2)

Which is mainly associated with cattle?

A

Alveolar or interstitial.

Interstitial

95
Q

What is bolus emphysema?

If a rupture happens what could happen?

A

Large focal air-filled spaces (bullae)

Rupture may lead to fatal pneumothorax.
*complication of emphysema

96

What is another name for pulmonary edema emphysema in cattle?

A

Fog fever

A

Transient rhinotracheitis and broncho-interstitial pneumonia.

100
Q

What two viruses should be considered in cabs with necrotizing bronchiolitis?

A

BRSV & PI-3 virus

101
Q

How are viral pneumonias in cattle diagnosed?

A

Diagnosis is confirmed by virus isolation, PCR or detection of viral antigens by fluorescence antibody test (FAT) or immunohistochemistry (IHC).

102
Q

What is responsible for causing bovine enzootic pneumonia (chronic suppurative bronchopneumonia)? (7)

A

Mycoplasmas, Chlamydophila, Pasteurella multocida, Arcanobacterium pyogenes, Histophilus somni, Mannheimia haemolytica and E.coli.

103
Q

Calves with what are highly susceptible to bronchopneumonia?

A

Calves with bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency (BLAD)

104
Q

What does bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency (BLAD) do?

A

Prevents the migration of neutrophils from the capillary in calves.

Q

What are common sequelas of chronic suppurative pneumonia?(2)

A
