Traumatic reticulopericarditis in a goat

Bu çalışmada bir keçide rastlanan traumatik retikuloperikarditis olgusu tanımlandı. Olguda, klinik olarak genel sağlık durumunda kötüleşme ve solunum güçlüğü, makroskobik olarak, karın boşluğunda sıvı birikimi ve lokal fibrinli peritonitis gözlendi. Retikulumun anteroventral bölgesi ile diyafram arasında şiddetli fibröz yapışmalarla birlikte 5 cm uzunluğunda paslı bir iğne vardı. Gögüs boşluğunda purulent bir eksudat, akciğerin sol apikal lobu ile perikard arasında da fibröz yapışmalar belirlendi. Perikard boşluğunda aşırı kanamaya bağlı kalp tamponadı tablosu gözlendi. Gögüs ve karın boşluğunda ayrıca çok sayıda apselere rastlandı. Histopatolojik olarak, retikulum, perikard, epikard ve akciğerlerde fibrinopurulent yangısal bir reaksiyon gözlendi.

Bir keçide traumatik retikuloperikarditis

In this study, a case of traumatic reticulopericarditis was described in a goat. Clinically, the animal exhibited poor general condition characterized by weakness and dyspnea. At necropsy; ascites and local fibrinous peritonitis were observed. There were severe adhesions between thoracal cavity, diaphragma and reticulum in which antero-ventral region corroded needle of 5 cm length. In thoracal cavity, there were fibrinopurulent exudate and fibrinous adhesions between pericardium and left apical lobe of the lung. In the pericardial sac, cardiac tamponade resulting from excessive clotting was observed. Furthermore, several abscesses were determined in the reticular wall and thoracal cavity Histopathologically, fibrinopurulent inflammatory reaction was detected in the wall of the reticulum, pericard, epicard and lung.
