Ectopia cordis cervicalis and its surgical treatment in A holstein calf

Ectopia Cordis, kalbin göğüs kafesi dışında, parsiyal ya da tam olarak anormal yerleşimiyle karakterize, seyrek rastlanan kongenital bir anomalidir. Ectopia cordis, ventral karın duvarının gelişimindeki problemlere bağlı olarak genellikle intrakardiyak defektlerle ya da diğer çoklu anomalilerle ilişkili olabilir. Bu makalede, 6 günlük, erkek, 55 kg ağırlığında, Holstein bir buzağıda görülen ectopia cordis cervicalis olgusu ve operatif sağaltımı anlatılmaktadır. Yapılan muayeneler (klinik, hematolojik, EKG, radyografik, ultrasonografik, BT) sonucunda hastaya, kalbin göğüs kafesi içine alınmasına yönelik olarak tek seansta, cerrahi sağaltımda bulunuldu. Hastanın, 10 gün süreyle postoperatif takibi yapıldı fakat buzağı 10. günün sonunda septik şok nedeniyle öldü.

Holstein Irkı bir buzağıda ectopia cordis cervicalis olgusu ve operatif sağaltımı

Ectopia cordis is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by partial or complete displacement of the heart, outside the thoracic cavity. Ectopia cordis is usually associated with other multiple anomalies and intra-cardiac defects due to developmental problems in the ventral body wall. In this report, a 6 day-old, 55 kg male Holstein calf with a case of ectopia cordis cervicalis and its surgical treatment has been presented. Following examinations (clinical, haematological, ECG, x-ray, USG and CT) a single staged surgery was performed to correct localisation of the heart in the thoracic cavity. The case was followed up 10 days postoperatively. However, the calf died at the end of post-operative day 10 due to septic shock.
