40
Q

Inflammation of unknown aetiology - Serum hepatitis in horses

Centrilobular to submassive necrosis

41
Q

Inflammation of unknown aetiology - Chronic active hepatitis in dogs

A

1)ICH, leptospirosis 2)Copper toxicosis - hereditary in Bedlington terriers, Dobermans and West Highland white terriers 3)Anticonvulsant drugs (primidone and phenytoin)

42
Q

Chronic active hepatitis in dogs - Copper toxicosis lesions

A

Cirrhosis (multinodular hyperplasia and fibrosis with inflammation)

43
Q

Toxic Hepatopathy aetiology

A

Liver essential in detoxification and excretion of xenobiotic. Liver often severely affected; other organs untouched

44
Q

Toxic Hepatopathy pathogenesis

A

1) Biotransformation (metabolism of lipid soluble compounds by microsomal MFO enzymes, e.g. CCl4, plant toxins) - intermediate reactive radicals formed 2)Natural affinity (storage results in raised levels and toxicity, e.g. Cu) 3)Some compounds not metabolised, e.g. P

45
