Die haufigste Reproduktionspathologie bei weiblichen Echsen ist die postovulatorische Retention von Eiern (Dystokie). Dabei wird zwischen einer obstruktiven und einer nicht obstruktiven Dystokie unterschieden, also einer erschwerten (Oviposition) bzw. einer volligen Unfahigkeit zur Eiablage. Haufig sind diese Erkrankungen durch Haltungs- und Futterungsfehler bedingt, weshalb Tierarzte uber gute Kenntnisse auf diesem Gebiet verfugen sollten. Ursachen fur die Dystokie konnen eine mechanische Obstruktion der Eileiter, Infektionen des Reproduktionstraktes, eine grose Anzahl an Eiern, eine mangelhafte Kalzifizierung der Eischale oder auch die metabolische Knochenerkrankung (metabolic bone disease) sein. Die klinischen Anzeichen von Reproduktionsstorungen sind unspezifisch. Zu ihnen zahlen Depression, Lethargie, Anorexie, Dyspnoe, Obstipation sowie eine Reaktionslosigkeit auf ausere Reize. Das unspezifische klinische Bild macht die diagnostische Aufarbeitung zu einer grosen Herausforderung. Als erstes sollte durch Rontgen- und Ultraschalldiagnostik der Zolomhohle bestimmt werden, ob es sich uber praovulatorische oder postovulatorische Pathologie handelt. Tierarzte, die uber gute Kenntnis der Ultraschall- und Rontgendiagnostik bei Reptilien verfugen, konnen die Anzahl und die Position der Eier sowie Eierschalenbildung (Kalzifizierungsgrad) abschatzen. Die Bestimmung hamatologischer und biochemischer Blutparameter sowie der Elektrolyte kann helfen, den klinischen Zustand des Tieres besser einzuschatzen. Auch eine Endoskopie in allgemeiner Anasthesie kann bei der Diagnosefindung behilflich sein.Es bestehen unterschiedliche therapeutische Moglichkeiten (manuelle Massage im Wasserbad, chirurgische Behandlung, hormonelles Behandlungsprotokoll mit Kalzium- und Oxytocinanwendung). Die Auswahl der Behandlungsstrategie hangt von unterschiedlichen Faktoren ab: Soll das Tier reproduktionsfahig bleiben? Wie lange dauert die Retention der Eier (Dystokie) bereits an? Sie hangt aber auch vom klinischen Zustand des Tieres, der Art der Reproduktionsstorung und Prognose nach der Behandlung ab. Je schneller die Behandlung der Dystokie eingeleitet wird, desto groser ist die Chance, die Reproduktionsfahigkeit zu erhalten.","PeriodicalId":17825,"journal":{"name":"Kleintierpraxis","volume":"62 1","pages":"754-764"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2017-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41873658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Frequent causes of canine OE are hypersensitivities to food and environmental allergens, foreign bodies and hypothyroidism. To achieve good owner compliance the clinician needs good communication skills. A clinical and otoscopic examination and ear cytology are needed to make the diagnosis of OE. The usefulness of bacterial cultures and susceptibility testing in cases of OE is currently under debate. The gold standard for drug application in OE is topical as higher drug concentrations are achieved in the ear compared to systemic treatment. A lot of commercial ear products and ear cleaners are available. The clinician should be aware of their ingredients, their mode of action and possible ototoxic effects. Short term therapy with systemic glucocorticoids can be useful in cases of stenotic ear canals.

Target organ damage can occur if the blood pressure is elevated. Affected organs are the eye, kidney, brain and heart. If the blood pressure exceeds 180/120 mmHg there is a high risk for the development of target organ damage. Whenever a disease with a high prevalence of hypertension is diagnosed or target organ damage is suspected, measurement of blood pressure should be performed. Indirect techniques to measure blood pressure are the Doppler sonography and the high definition oscillometry (HDO). A reliable assessment of the blood pressure can be achieved if a standardized protocol is followed. Especially the problem of ,,white coat hypertension\" should be eliminated. If hypertension is diagnosed, further decisions will be made based on the severity of the hypertension and possible target organ damage. If the latter is present, medical therapy should be immediately started. If target organ damage is absent, blood pressure measurement is at first repeated to verify hypertension. The first choice medical agent is independent of the causative disease amlodipin. The treatment goal is to permanently lower the blood pressure to < 160/100 mmHg. With this approach the development of progression of target organ damage can be prevented. In most cases of affected cats, systemic hypertension and the causative disease have to be treated and monitored lifelong.","PeriodicalId":17825,"journal":{"name":"Kleintierpraxis","volume":"86 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68833890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ACVIM consensus guidelines have been widely adopted and classify systemic hypertension according to the relative risk of developing target organ damage. Systemic hypertension is a common problem in geriatric cats and is often secondary to other diseases, mainly impaired renal function. Systemic hypertension is less prevalent in hyperthyroid cats as it has been in previous years. However, approximately 20% of cats treated for hyperthyroidism may subsequently develop hypertension but not all will have an associated azotaemia. The role of idiopathic hypertension (where no causative disease can be identified) remains controversial in cats. If hypertension is not recognised and treated, target organ damage can result. Target organ damage is mainly diagnosed in the eyes as it causes sudden-onset blindness, for example, due to hyphaema or retinal detachment. The primary aim in the treatment of systemic hypertension is the prevention of target organ damage that does not only occur in the eye, but also manifests itself in the kidneys, cardiovascular and central nervous systems. Recent studies have also begun to explore the relationship that systemic hypertension may have with proteinuria and the progression of chronic kidney disease in feline patients.","PeriodicalId":17825,"journal":{"name":"Kleintierpraxis","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68834247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
