Q

What is the pathogenesis of collapsing trachea?

A
  1. C-shaped cartilaginous rings start to weaken and begin to flatten out
  2. As cartilaginous rings weaken, the dorsal tracheal membrane and trachealis muscle stretches, becomes wider
  3. The trachea collapses under negative pressure
  4. Collapse leads to mucosal irritation, increased secretion, inflammation, and cough

Q

What secondary anatomic components are are associated with Brachycephalic Airway Syndrome (morphologic changes)?

A

everted laryngeal saccules, everted tonsils, laryngeal collapse

17
Q

When should you consider distemper as a disgnosis based on clinical signs?

A

unvaccinated animal with GI and/or respiratory and/or neurologic signs

18
Q

What is the pathogenesis of canine distemper virus (CDV)?

A
  1. unvaccinated
  2. Exposed to CDV
  3. CDV viremia
  4. Spreads to the epithelium of the respiratory, gastrointestinal, urogenital tracts, and the central nervous system
19
Q

What is the link between CDV and bacterial pneumonia?

A

CDV is immunosuppresive and causes pneumocyte, bronchiolar, and alveolar epithelial and macrophage necrosis that causes bacterial bronchopneumonia

20
Q

What clinical signs are associated with blastomyces infections in dogs (these are from a sepcific case)?

A

mild fever, visual difficulties, anorexia and weight loss, non-healing draining skin lesion, depression and decreased stamina, persistant cough and shortness of breath that gets worse over time

21
Q

What population of dogs are Blastomyces infections common in?

A

large, male dogs 1-5 years of age especially in dogs that hunt or roam

22
Q

What type of pneumonia does Blastomyces cause in dogs?

A

interstitial pneumonia

23
Q

What is the pathogenesis of Blastomyces infection?

A
  1. fungus grows in soil
  2. Conidia inhaled
  3. Fungus becomes a yeast at elevated temperature of host
  4. hematogenous and lymphatic dissemination (lung, bone, skin, brain, eyes)
  5. systemic blastomycosis
  6. in lung, macrophages release cytokines recruiting additional inflammatory cells into the interstitium
  7. interstitial pneumonia
24
Q

In lung lobe torsion, where does the lobe typically twist?

A

at the level of the base of the heart

25
Q

What is the pathogenesis of lung lobe torsion turning into respiratory distress?

A
  1. Torsion
  2. Muscular artery continues to pump blood into the lobe but vein is compressed
  3. venous congestion
  4. infarction
  5. Serosanguinous fluid leaks from necrotic lung
  6. serosanguinous thoracic effusion
  7. Atelectasis
  8. Respiratory distress
26
Q

What is the pathogenesis of progressive atrophic rhinitis in swine?

A
  1. Bordatella bronchiseptica coloniezes nasal epithelium
  2. Rhinitis
  3. Toxigenic Pasteurella multocida type D colonizes damaged nasal mucosa
  4. elaboration of cytotoxins which disrupt osteogenesis of the turbinate bone
  5. Atrophic rhinitis
27
Q

What are some clinical signs associated with swine influenza?

A

acute onset, fever, high morbidity, barking cough

28
Q

What gross appearance does SIV have in the lungs?

A

pigs have patchy, lobar consolidation, that is more severe in the anteroventral lung

29
Q

What damage does Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae do?

A

it binds to the cilia causing ciliostasis, clumping and loss of cilia, and loss of airway epithelial cells

30
Q

What clinical signs are associated with a Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae infection?

A

there are typically no clinical signs

31
Q

What gross lesions are associated with Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae?

A

mild, patchy, anteroventral consolidation

32
Q

What type of pneumonia does Mycoplasma hyopneumonia + a secondary bacterial infection cause?

A

bronchopneumonia

33
Q

What is the pathogenesis of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae + a secondary bacteria leading to bacterial bronchopneumonia?

A
  1. Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae colonizes respiratory epithelium
  2. Causes ciliostasis, loss of cilia, decreased epithelial cells and goblet cells
  3. decreased mucociliary clearance
  4. Bacterial broncopneumonia
34
Q

What clinical signs are associated with a Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and a secondary bacterial infection?

A

chronic, non-productive cough with decreased weight gain

35
Q

What key gross features are associated with a Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and a secondary bacterial infection?

A

well-demarcated, tan colored, anteroventral consolidation in the lung

36
Q

Where do lesions associated with Actinobacillus pleuropneumonia typically localize?
NOTE: the pathogenesis will be in the picture flashcard set

A

the dorsal portion of the caudal lung lobe in the region of the hilus

37
Q

What causative agents cause the lungs in a pig to be diffusely tan, mottled, heavy, rubbery and non collapsing (interstitial pneumonia)?

A

PRRSV (porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus), PCV2 (porcine circovitus type II), Salmonella choleraesuis septicema, ascarid larval migration

38
Q

What is the pathogenesis of Haemophilus parasuis infection?

A
  1. Aerosol exposure to new strain
  2. Colonizes nasal cavity
  3. Bacteremia
    4a. Seeds in the meninges causing meningitis
    4b. Seeds in the joints causing arthritis
    4c. Seeds in serosal surfaces causing polyserositis
