This study reports the case of two black sakis (Chiroptes utahickae) kept under human care in a zoo-a male and a female-presented for routine examination due to weight loss. Ultrasonography revealed a substantial intestinal infestation of large roundworms. The female was treated with pyrantel pamoate, and the male with fenbendazole, both with successful outcomes. The worms were sent for morphological and molecular identification, and the animals were submitted for new examinations. This case underscores the importance of preventive veterinary check-ups in zoos, particularly for parasites that pose zoonotic risks, to ensure both animal and human health.","PeriodicalId":72458,"journal":{"name":"Brazilian journal of veterinary medicine","volume":"47 ","pages":"e008924"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11977788/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143813209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The animal in the first case is a 10 years old female poodle. The physical examination revealed a mass in the left abdominal caudal (M4) and inguinal (M5) mammary glands with a six-month evolution. The imaging exams of the right pelvic limb revealed areas of bone lysis in the distal portion of the femur. No evidence of metastases was observed in the thorax on thoracic radiographs. Microscopic evaluations were consistent with the diagnosis of malignant adenomyoepithelioma. The mass in the distal region of the femur has characteristics similar to those observed in the mammary gland mass. The animal in the second case was a nine-year-old female mixed-breed euthanized due to the unfavorable prognosis of the disease. Histopathological evaluation of the primary tumor in M3, M4, and M5 was consistent with the diagnosis of grade II cribriform carcinoma. Metastatic foci were observed in the lung, liver, kidney, adrenal, proximal metaphyseal region of the right humerus extending to the distal diaphyseal region, and axillary and medial iliac lymph nodes' parenchyma. Immunohistochemistry was performed for markers Ki67, Cox-2, ER, PR, Pan-CK, p63 and HER-2 in the primary tumor and bone metastasis in both cases. High proliferation rate, positivity for hormone receptors, Pan-CK and p63 were observed in both cases. HER-2 was negative in the primary tumor and bone metastasis and COX-2 was negative in the primary tumor of both cases, negative in the metastasis of case 01 and positive in the metastasis of case 02.","PeriodicalId":72458,"journal":{"name":"Brazilian journal of veterinary medicine","volume":"47 ","pages":"e009124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11924272/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143671620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study objective was to report the confirmation rate of suspected cases of urolithiasis in dogs and cats treated at veterinary clinics in the city of Santarém, Pará. A retrospective cohort study was carried out from the database of medical records from six veterinary clinics from the years 2012 to 2023. Dogs and cats were evaluated for clinical suspicion, species, age, breed, feeding type, diagnosis, location of the urolith and type of urolith. As the data did not present a normal distribution, they were submitted to the Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. The analyses were performed using Statistical Analysis Software (SAS), considering a 5% significance level. Of the 532 files analyzed of suspected cases, 353 were confirmed. The percentage of cases in cats (72.23%) was higher than in dogs (55.37%). The age range between 2 and 5 years was the period when it had more confirmed cases and most of the uroliths were found in the urinary vesicle, both in dogs and cats. It was concluded that there was a high index of confirmed cases of urolithiasis in dogs and cats, being superior in this last species. In addition, in both species are more affected animals between 2 and 5 years of age, being more common the location of uroliths in the bladder.","PeriodicalId":72458,"journal":{"name":"Brazilian journal of veterinary medicine","volume":"47 ","pages":"e005624"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11912946/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143659318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indirect hemagglutination test for Toxoplasma gondii was positive (antibodies titer 1:640). Computed tomography of the head and cervical column showed hypertrophic degenerative remodeling of the vertebral articular joint processes, causing severe vertebral canal stenosis and bilateral spinal cord compression at C2-C3. In addition, bilateral otitis media was present, without signs of intracranial extension of the inflammation by imaging. Brainstem auditory evoked potential test revealed a partial, bilateral conductive deafness. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis resulted normal; CSF PCR for T. gondii was negative. A diagnosis of osseous-associated cervical spondylomyelopathy (OA-CSM) and concurrent bilateral otitis media was obtained. Glucocorticoids, movement restriction, vitamin A supplementation, and clindamycin were instituted. Four weeks later the clinical signs deteriorated, and the animal was euthanized.

Transmissible venereal tumors (TVT) are malignant round cell neoplasms characterized by an anomalous proliferation of tumor cells disseminated mainly by direct contact between animals. Although transmitted sexually, transmission through contact with mucous membranes and skin tissue can also occur, including the nasal cavity. Although rare, it can have significant clinical implications because it is difficult to diagnose. The diagnosis is made by physical examination, imaging tests (computed tomography and rhinoscopy), and histopathological analysis, which is the gold standard. Treatment is based on the use of chemotherapeutic agents, with vincristine as the drug of choice. This study reported a case of intranasal TVT in a 4-year-old French bulldog and addressed its clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment. It also reported the importance of early recognition of the condition and changes in imaging tests to better understand and manage this atypical presentation.","PeriodicalId":72458,"journal":{"name":"Brazilian journal of veterinary medicine","volume":"46 ","pages":"e008624"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11731857/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142985673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
