Spr 16- Test 3- Dark, Repro Flashcards
CS/presentation- Freemartinism
Testes, incomplete uterus, short vagina- infertile, never effectively breed or milk
Cause of freemartinism
Male and female twins, XX/XY female chimera due to MIF from M to F via mixed blood supply. MIF inhibits female differentiation bc sertoli and leydig cells differentiate earlier
At least some tissue from both sets of gonads (M/F)
Hermaphrodite
Gonad/genital mismatch (ex penis with ovaries)
Pseudohermaphrodite
Which hormone is from the anterior pituitary and initiates follicle and ova growth, supports cells
FSH
Which hormone is from the anterior pituitary and stimulates follicular growth and rupture/formation of CL
LH
What hormone causes secondary female characteristics, what else does it do
Estrogen, prepare uterus for pregnancy
What hormone maintains the pregnancy and where does it come from
Progesterone- from CL and placenta
What causes CL and follicle rupture
Prostaglandins
Missing one or both ovaries- what is this called and what is the consequence
ovarian agenesis, low estrogen production
Name the three developmental ovarian conditions
ovarian agenesis, duplication of ovaries, hypoplasia
What type of cyst is clinically significant in horses? dogs?
H: paramesonephric duct cysts; D: cystic SES
What cysts are significant in cows and why
Cystic ovarian disease- interferes with estrus cycling
80% of ovarian tumors in horses
Granulosa cell (thecal cell)
What are kenny grades
repro assessment for horses based on endometrial bx, higher number, worse chance of full term carry
Campylobacter, tritrich, taylorella, arcano bacteria all are agents of what disease
Endometritis of the closed uterus
Describe grade II (Kenny grades) vs grade III
II: Glands grouped in a nest by fibrous connective tissue; III: extensive fibrosis, glands individual, no connective tissue- irreversible
Horse with unilateral ovarian mass, nymphomania, unilateral ovary atrophy, cystic endometrial hyperplasia +/- pyometra; ectopic production of estrogen and inhibin
Granulosa cell tumor (thecal cell)
Cause of CEH
Cystic endometrial hyperplasia- prelude to other conditions, usually due to hormone imbalance (birth control, tumor production)
CEH- sequelae
Pyometra
Which form of pyometra is emergency
Closed- build up of toxins, very sick, surgery best, high neutrophil count
Neoplasia of the ovary that is similar to seminoma in the testicle
Dysgerminoma
Neoplasia that arises from SES (sub epithelial structures), can cause ascites
Ovarian carcinoma and adenocarcinoma
Sequelae of ovarian carcinoma and adenocarcinoma
Cystic endometrial hyperplasia; carcinomatosis
Unilateral, soft, smooth mass, more aggressive in horses than dogs
Dysgerminoma
What indicates metastasis of ovarian carcinoma and adenocarcinoma
Small papillae at edges of masses
Well-differentiated, benign ovarian tumor with possible development of hair, teeth, fat, etc
Teratoma
Describe why teratoma has odd tissue
Differentiation into 2 of 3 germ cell layers (ecto, meso, endoderm)
Two types of adenocarcinoma
Papillary or cystic
Describe hydrosalpinx
fallopian tube blockage causing distension from fluid filling
Types of salpingitis, describe
Primary- open infundibulum takes in bacteria; Secondary- agent in through uterus in uterine disease
Sequelae of salpingitis
infertility (unless Abx cure fully before scarring/strictures)
What is the uterine stroma
tissue between uterine glands
Most common developmental uterine condition, describe
Segmental aplasia- piece doesnt develop normally, magnitude depends on which piece
Most common inflammatory condition of the uterus, common etiology
Endometritis- inflammatory of the lining, commonly bacterial
If it looks like bubble wrap, you should think:
CEH!
What condition causes a leukmoid reaction (and what is that)
Closed pyometra, High neutrophil count
Aggressive, metastatic neoplasia of uterus
Uterine carcinoma
Focal, in the wall, white to tan, firm masses- not every aggressive
Leiomyoma
Dog placenta type
Zonary (bands per puppy)
SIPS
Subinvolution of placental sites
What is endometriosis
Implantation of active endometrial tissue outside of uterus, active glands in abdominal cavity
When is SIPS clinical
2 weeks after birth (before this is normal to appear like this), often dont return to normal, bleed to anemia
What is the form of endometriosis which infiltrates the myometrium, is this significant?
Adenomyosis- indicental
Cotyledonary placental attachment- species
cattle, sheep, ruminants
