Q

pathogenesis of ruminal lactic acidosis

A
  • sudden change to carbohydrate-rich feed promotes growth of gram-positive bacteria
  • fermentation of carbohydrate by gram (+) leads to lactic acid production (kills off normal bacteria)

16
Q

lactic acidosis and severe dehydration can lead to

A
  • circulatory collapse and death
17
Q

what 2 things can occur secondary to lactic acidosis or traumatic injury to rumen mucosa

A
  • bacterial rumenitis

- mycotic rumenitis

18
Q

abomasal displacement etiology is multifactorial (3)

A
  • post parturient hypocalcemia and high volatile fatty acid concentration from heavy grain feeding
  • gas production by microflora and gas accumulation
  • abdominal organs in over the xiphoid process at abdominal ventral midline
19
Q

left or right abomasal displacement is most common

A
  • left (85%)
20
Q

left abomasal displacement (LDA) typically seen in

A
  • high-producing diary cattle during 6 weeks after parturition
21
Q

left or right abomasal displacement is more severe

A
  • right
22
Q

why does abomasal displacement lead to metabolic alkalosis

A
  • net gain in bicarb
23
Q

abomasal dilation of calves normally due to

A
  • husbandry issues
24
Q

where does gastric rupture typically occurs in horses

A
  • along greater curvature
25
Q

dysautonomia in horses (grass sickness) can lead to

A
  • gastric distension
26
Q

pyloric stenosis most commonly in

A
  • brachycephalic dogs, siamese cats, horses, humans
27
Q

perforating ulcer

A
  • penetration through remaining tissue layers and into peritoneal cavity
28
Q

common areas for ulcers (2)

A
  • right dorsal colon

- stomach

29
Q

tumors that produce gastrin and histamine may increase ___ production leading to ___

A
  • HCl

- ulcers

30
Q

gastric dilation and volvulus (GDV) occurs most commonly in

A
  • large breeds

- deep-chested dogs

31
Q

how does GDV lead to death due to cardiovascular shock

A
  • pancreatic ischemia leads to release of myocardial depressant factor from pancreas which causes reduction of myocardial contractility
32
Q

uremic gastritis typically results in

A
  • mineralization and ulceration of gastric mucosa
33
Q

uremic gastritis tissue damage by 2 mechanisms

A
  • uremic vasculopahty

- uremic toxicity

34
Q

affected breeds of uremic gastritis

A
  • basenji
  • beagle
  • boxer
  • bull terrier
35
Q

uremic gastritis characterized by

A
  • diffuse thickening of gastric mucosa
36
Q

giant hypertrophic pyloric gastropathy should not be confused with

A
  • chronic hypertrophic gastropathy of basenji dogs
37
Q

giant hypertrophic pyloric gastropathy lesion

A
  • formation of hypertrophic mass at pylorus -> leads to pyloric obstruction
38
Q

gastric and abomasal neoplasia common in horses that arises from non-glandular portion of stomach

A
  • squamous cell carcinoma
39
Q

lymphoma in cattle predilection sites (3)

A
  • abomasum
  • uterus
  • right atrium
