Urinary System Flashcards
What species has a multipyramidal appearance of the kiddy but has no external lobulation
Porcine
What species has multipyramidal kidney with external lobulation
Bovine
What is the absence of development of a kidney?
Renal aplaisa
Unilateral (incidental) or bilateral (fatal)
Renal aplasia is rare but can be seen in swine, cattle and dog, what breed of dogs does it have a familial tendency in?
Doberman pinscher and beagle
If there is a unilateral renal aplaisa, how will the functional kidney appear?
Compensatory hypertrophy
MDx for kidney with reduced size but normal architecture
Renal hypoplasia
Seen in pigs, foals, dogs, and chickens
MDx for a kidney that has abnormal and asynchronous differentiation of renal tissues
Renal dysplasia
-severe bilateral –> renal fialuare
What are causes of renal dysplasia in cats and dogs?
FIP
Canine herpesvirus
Cause of renal dysplasia in bovine
Bovine viral diarrhea virus
Intrauritne urethral obstruction -calf
What is a cause of renal dysplasia in pigs
Hypovitaminosis A
Intrauterine urethral obstruction
Renal dysplasia can be an autosomal dominant trait in what sp?
Suffolk sheep
Fluid filled mass lined by cuboidal epithelium on the kidney
Renal cyst (may be uni, bilateral, or multiple)
Common congenital malformation
Kidney has a “honeycomb appearance” with numberous cysts in cortex and medulla. What is the condition and what are the causes
Polycystic kidney
Congenital -pig and labs
Inherited - certain dog, cat and goat breeds
Acquired - obstructed tubules in chronic renal disease
Normal kidney in abnormal places? Whhhhaaaaattt???
Ectopic kidney
Seen in dog and pig
Ectopic kidney can predispose an animal to??
Urethral obstruction
Development of hydronephrosis
What is a “horseshoe kidney”?
Congenital malformation
-fusion of the cranial or caudal poles of the kidney.
What is the most common PM change seen in kidney?
Autolysis
Kidneys are soft and friable
What pigmentation disturbances are seen in the kidney
Pseudomelanosis
Myoglobinuria
Lipofuscinosis
Bile
Hemoglobin will cause the kidney to be dark red - black, what would be the cause of this change?
Severe intravascular hemolysis and hemoglobinuria
- lepto
- bacillary hemoglobinuria
- babesiosis
- chronic copper poisoning (sheep)
Sheep with..
Enlarged urinary bladder Adipose tissue is yellow in colour Liver in orange Kidneys are dark red-black Dark-red urine
Hemoglobinuria secondary to copper poisoning.
