Q
  • Diffuse fibroelastic thickening of the left ventricular endocardium; necrosis and calcification of the adjacent myocardium.
  • AV valves and chordae tendinae may be thickened
  • Congenital form usually regarded as primary (BURMESE KITTEN). Secondary endocardial fibrosis may occur in mature animals

valvular fibrosis and myxomatous or mucoid degeneration

31
Q

Valvular fibrosis and myxomatous or mucoid degeneration

A
  • most common cause of congestive heart failure in old dogs
  • more frequent on the mitral that tricuspid valves
32
Q
  • usually a bacterial infection.
  • lesions are large and generally present on valves
  • grossly, affected valves have large, adhering, friable, yellow to gray masses termed “vegetations” occluding valvular orifices
A

Endocarditis

33
Q

Chronic: Irregular nodular masses termed.

A

“verrucae” (wartlike lesions)

34
Q

a distinctive lesion common affecting left atrium associated with acute renal insufficiency in dogs

A

Ulcerative Endocarditis

35
Q

MYOCARDIAL DISEASES;
Myocardial hypertrophy
2 Anatomic Forms:

A
  1. Eccentric Hypertrophy
  2. Concentric Hypertrophy
36
Q

enlarged cardiac chambers with normal to decreased wall thickness. Produced by lesions with increased blood volume (i.e valvular insufficiency and septal defects)

A

Eccentric Hypertrophy

37
Q

Char. by small cardiac chambers with thick walls. Results from lesions with increased pressure load such as valvular stenosis, systemic hypertension and pulmonary disease.

A

Concentric Hypertrophy

38
Q

Three stages of myocardial hypertrophy

A
  1. initiation
  2. stable hyperfunction
  3. deterioration of function associated with degeneration of hypertrophied muscle
39
