IMAGING DIAGNOSIS—BACTERIAL DISKOSPONDYLITIS IN A GOAT     

GWENDOLYN J. LEVINE  WESLEY T. BISSETT  ROBERT C. COLE  JARED J. JANKE  JAIRO NUNES  BRIAN PORTER  JONATHAN M. LEVINE 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》2006,47(6):585-588

A 3-year-old intact male Boer goat was evaluated for paraplegia. Computed tomography (CT) indicated the presence of diskospondylitis, which had previously not been reported in this species, and significant compressive myelopathy. Chronic bacterial pneumonia, epididymitis, nephritis, and soft-tissue abscesses were believed to result in hematogenous spread of bacteria to the affected disk spaces. Staphylococcus spp. and Archanobacterium pyogenes were both identified from postmortem cultures of the vertebral column.  相似文献

IMAGING DIAGNOSIS—SYNOVIAL MYXOMA OF LUMBAR VERTEBRAE ARTICULAR PROCESS JOINT     

WAKA H. BLAIR  JONATHAN M. LEVINE  SHARON C. KERWIN  KATHY A. SPAULDING  BENJAMIN D. YOUNG  ROY R. POOL 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》2011,52(3):309-312

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and histopathology were used to diagnose an articular process synovial myxoma in a dog. On MR images, the tumor was characterized by distortion of the left L1–L2 articular process, widening of the articular process joint, and the presence of a mass contiguous with the synovium of the articular process that displaced the spinal cord. The tumor was T2‐hyperintense, T1‐hypointense, relative to muscle, and had mild contrast enhancement. The MR features of articular process synovial myxoma may be distinct from other diseases of the articular process joint.  相似文献   

Biomechanical Evaluation of Gastropexy Techniques in the Dog     

STEPHEN H. LEVINE DVM  MS  DENNIS D. CAYWOOD DVM  MS  DipACVS 《Veterinary surgery : VS》1983,12(3):166-169

The relative strength of adhesions created by three different gastropexy techniques in dogs was evaluated two and six months following surgery. Tube gastrostomy formed a stronger adhesion (p>.001) when compared with simple gastropexy and permanent gastropexy two months after operation. In a smaller number of animals examined at six months, no difference in strength was noted between permanent gastropexy and tube gastrostomy.  相似文献

MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING FINDINGS OF EQUINE SOLAR PENETRATION WOUNDS     

CAROLINA I. URRACA DEL JUNCO  TIM S. MAIR  SARAH E. POWELL  PETER I. MILNER  ALEX F. FONT  TOBIAS SCHWARZ  MARTIN P. WEAVER 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》2012,53(1):71-75

The magnetic resonance (MR) imaging features, signalment, clinical history and outcome of 55 horses with a penetrating sole injury were evaluated. Our aim was to describe MR imaging findings within the hoof capsule, assess the utility of the technique and give recommendations for the optimal MR imaging protocol to evaluate such injuries. Data from five equine hospitals were analyzed retrospectively. The tract was more likely to be visualized in animals scanned within the first week postinjury. There was no significant predisposition based on breed, age, or gender. T2*W transverse sequences were the most useful for assessment of solar penetrations due to their orientation perpendicular to the deep digital flexor tendon, the reduced scanning time, and the T2* capability of enhancing magnetic susceptibility caused by hemorrhage.  相似文献   

Return to use and performance following exploratory celiotomy for colic in horses: 195 cases (2003–2010)     

W. DAVIS  C. A. FOGLE  M. P. GERARD  J. F. LEVINE  A. T. BLIKSLAGER 《Equine veterinary journal》2013,45(2):224-228

Reasons for performing study: There are few objective data on return to use and performance in horses following colic surgery. Objective: To investigate return to functional use of horses following colic surgery and factors associated with a negative outcome. Methods: The North Carolina State University Equine Colic Database was reviewed for horses that underwent exploratory celiotomy for colic (2003–2010). Horses were excluded from the study if they survived <6 months, had no intended use preoperatively, or if further data were not available at attempted follow‐up. Information retrieved included history, background, use, and selected pre‐, intra‐, and post operative factors. Telephone interviews were used to obtain follow‐up data. Logistic regression was used to investigate associations between clinical data and outcome, reported as odds ratios with a 95% confidence interval and corresponding P value. Results: Of patients surviving to 6 months, 133/195 (68%) were performing their intended use and 85/156 (54%) were at or above preoperative performance. At one year, 145/190 (76%) horses were performing their intended use and 101/153 (66%) were at or above preoperative performance. Animals were significantly less likely to return to use/performance if they had a previous celiotomy, stall rest for an orthopaedic condition, a nonstrangulating lesion type, incisional hernia, diarrhoea or laminitis. Conclusions: The overall prognosis for return to use and performance following colic surgery is fair to good. Multiple pre‐ and post operative factors may affect the likelihood of return to use and performance. Potential relevance: Targeted owner education regarding preoperative lameness, post operative rehabilitation and treatment for complications, such as incisional hernioplasty, may help inform owners about their horse's potential for return to use and performance following colic surgery.  相似文献
