Q

Pupillary light reflexes

A

Afferent: retina and optic n, optic chiasm, optic tract to EE oculomotor nucleus, pretectal zone in midbrain

Efferent: parasympathetic fibres of the oculomotor nerve and short ciliary nerves to iris constrictor

Decussation at optic chiasm
Dog - 75%
Cat - 65% (then cross back between pretectal nucleus and oculomotor nucleus) in midbrain

17
Q

Prognostic factors in cats with lymphoma

A
Anatomic locations -nasal and mediastinal (Siamese) better prognosis
Clinical stage - unclear prognostic significance
Small cell better than large cell
Immunophenotype not prognostic
BCS < 5/9 negative
FeLV positive - negative
Weight loss - negative
Substage b - negative
Low grade better than high grade
18
Q

Poor prognostic indicators of lymphoma in the dog

A

Substage
Immunophenotype (B cell better than T cell)
Steroid pre-treatment
Cranial mediastinal lymphadenopathy
Location - hepatic poor prognosis, alimentary poor prognosis, rectal good, multicentric better than GI

19
Q

Target lesions in liver characteristic of what?

A

Lymphoma and malignant histiocytosis

20
Q

Why do we need biopsies for lymphoma and not just cytology

A

To determine grade - can’t be done on cytology

Need this for prognosis and treatment options
