SIĞIRLARDA DİGİTAL DERMATİTİS

Sığır digital dermatitisi etiyolojisi bilinmeyen bir hastalık olup, yumuşak ökçede ayağın proksimal ucuna yakın volar yüzünde yuvarlak görünümlü eritematöz lezyonlarla karakterizedir. Değişik derecede topallık ile ilişkilidir. Ekonomik olarak  digital dermatitisin sonucu (süt veriminde azalma , üreme performasyonunda düşüş, üretimden çıkarılan hayvan oranında artış, süt kalitesinde bozulma ve ilave edilen işcilik maaliyeti) sağaltım masraflarına göre daha fazladır.

DIGITAL DERMATITIS IN THE COWS

Bovine digital dermatitis a disease of unknown aetiology, is characterised by the presence of annular erythematous lesion on the volar aspect of the limb the just proximal to the heel horn. It is associated with variable degrees of the lameness. Economically, the result of digital dermatitis (reduced milk yields, lower reproductive performance, increased involuntary cull rates, discarded milk, and the additional labor cost) are much greater than the treatments costs.
