Hereditary Osteochondrodysplasia in Scottish Fold Cats
Bu çalışmada, İstanbul Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Cerrahi Anabilim Dalına hareket etmede isteksizlik, tutuk yürüyüş, topallık, arka bacaklarında şişlik, kifozis ve minyatür görünüm gibi şikayetlerle getirilen, tanısı kalıtsal osteokondrodisplazi olan, onbir adet Scottish Fold kedinin klinik durumları ve sağaltım sonuçları değerlendirilmiştir. Olgulara osteokondrodisplaziye bağlı lezyonların şiddetine bağlı olarak konservatif ve/veya cerrahi sağaltım uygulanmıştır. Bu çalışmayla, ülkemizde sayıları giderek artmakta olan Scottish Fold kedilerindeki kalıtsal nitelikli bu hastalığa dikkat çekmek, kontrolsüz çiftleşmelerin engellenmesini sağlamak ve ilaveten sağaltım seçeneklerinin bulgu ve sonuçlarını meslektaşlarımızla paylaşmak amaçlanmıştır.
Scottish Fold Kedilerde Kalıtsal Osteokondrodisplazi
In this study, the clinical progress and the treatment results of cases Istanbul University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Surgery with a complaint of stilted gait, pain, lameness, reluctance to move, kyphosis and miniature appearance have been evaluated. The study materials included eleven Scottish Fold cats. The cases underwent conservative and surgical treatment due to severity of osteochondrodysplasic lesions. The aim of this study is to draw attention to this illness of homozigot and heterozigot Scottish Fold cats whose population is increasing dramatically in our country, to stop the uncontrolled mating of this breed and also to share our foundings and results with our colleauges.
