Q

Addison’s:
Definition –
Lab values –
Diagnosis –

A

Definition – Primary hypo-adrenocorticism (= Addison’s disease) – Destruction of the adrenal cortex most
commonly immune mediated. Leads to mineral corticoid and glucocorticoid deficiencies.

Lab values – Na < 140 mmol/L (hypo-natremia) – K > 5.6 mmol/L (hyper-kalemia) – Na:K ratio less than
15:1 is virtually diagnostic – USG < 1.030 (due to medullary washout from Na loss)

Diagnosis – Uncommon in dog, rare in cats. Clinical signs of acute presentation = Addisonian crisis
(vomit, diarrhoea, lethargy, weakness, anorexia, PU / PD). Chronic intermittent GI signs. Biochemistry,
haematology, electrolytes, urinalysis – Electrolyte abnormalities – ACTH stimulation test

89
Q

Addison’s disease in dogs – Causes, pathogenesis:

a) The primary is due to auto-immune inflammation of the adrenals. The secondary disease is caysed by
incorrect glucocorticoids therapy
b) Primary: Cortisol ↑ Aldosterone ↓ Secondary: Cortisol ↓ Aldosterone same
c) The primary disease is due to incorrect glucocorticoid therapy. The secondary disease is caused by
auto-immune inflammation of the adrenals
d) Primary: Cortisol ↓ Aldosterone ↓ Secondary: Cortisol same Aldosterone ↓
