After referral for management of the effusions, following radiographic and ultrasonographic imaging, the dog was diagnosed with acute necrotizing pancreatitis. On Day 5 of hospitalization, the dog developed bilateral abdominal-wall ecchymosis, prompting concerns that this was an example of Grey Turner's sign (GTS), described in human medicine as a subcutaneous manifestation of intra-abdominal hemorrhage presenting as ecchymosis of the flanks and commonly associated with severe acute necrotizing pancreatitis. This is apparently the first time that suspected GTS has been described in a dog with acute necrotizing pancreatitis. Recognizing GTS in dogs may alert clinicians to serious intra-abdominal pathology and prompt immediate further investigations. Key clinical message: We describe a case of suspected GTS (bilateral flank ecchymoses) in a dog, apparently for the first time. Grey Turner's sign may occur in cases of intra-abdominal hemorrhage as well as intra-abdominal inflammation in which hemoabdomen is not present. Recognizing GTS in dogs may alert clinicians to serious intra-abdominal disease and prompt immediate further investigations.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 7","pages":"723-727"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12261929/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144648632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lymphohistiocytic myocarditis associated with protozoal organisms with evidence of secondary congestive heart failure was diagnosed based on gross and histological findings. Protozoal cysts were identified within the myocardium and Sarcocystis-containing cysts were also seen in lingual and periocular striated muscles with associated myositis. Immunohistochemical analysis confirmed that the protozoal organisms were Sarcocystis spp. Molecular identification using polymerase chain reaction identified the etiologic agent as S. arctica/caninum. Although Sarcocystis infection has been documented in striated muscles of cats worldwide, this is typically an incidental finding. If disease occurs, it usually leads to neurologic signs from a Sarcocystis-induced encephalomyelitis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of Sarcocystis spp. affecting the cardiac muscle of a domestic cat with a fatal outcome. Key clinical message: Sarcocystis spp. is a novel cause of heart failure in cats due to lymphohistiocytic myocarditis.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 7","pages":"715-722"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12261931/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144648664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to severe hypoxemia, the dog was mechanically ventilated. He developed atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation during hospitalization. The arrhythmias were suspected to be secondary to the systemic inflammation, severe brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome, and high vagal tone without underlying cardiac pathology identified by echocardiography. Considering the hemodynamic instability of the dog, cardioversion was attempted. The arrhythmias were refractory to conventional treatments, discontinuation of pro-arrhythmic medications, and trials of Class I and II antiarrhythmics. Cardioversion occurred 2 h following oral sotalol administration after the dog received a diltiazem infusion for 30 h, and the dog recovered successfully. After the dog was discharged and prescribed sotalol that was subsequently discontinued, he did not experience any recurrence of arrhythmias during follow-up examinations. Key clinical message: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of a medical cardioversion of atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation in a mechanically ventilated dog with bronchopneumonia. Clinicians should be aware of the risk of acute cardiac events in dogs with systemic inflammation, such as bronchopneumonia, especially in brachycephalic breeds with high vagal tone.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 7","pages":"740-746"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12261944/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144648631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most (38, 75%) were in males and the median age was 2.9 y (range: 9 mo to 73 y). Forty-seven (78%) individuals had neurological disease (9 with concurrent ocular disease), 11 had ocular disease alone, 1 had eosinophilic cardiac pseudotumor, and 1 was an incidental autopsy finding. Clinical signs of neurological disease were highly variable and progressive, with vague initial signs and symptoms. Ocular disease was most often manifested as diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis, retinal lesions, and painless loss of vision and visual acuity. Outcomes were reported for 42 individuals with neurological disease: 8 (19%) died, 4 (10%) fully recovered, and the remaining 30 (71%) had mild to significant neurological residual deficits. Most (7/10, 70%) individuals with solely ocular disease had permanent vision loss.Conclusion and clinical relevance: The severity of the disease, poor response to treatment, and widespread presence of the parasite in areas where raccoons are endemic indicate a need for awareness among the public, healthcare providers, and veterinarians.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 7","pages":"789-800"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12261942/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144648628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Each cat had salivary urea nitrogen (SUN) assessed with a Kidney-Chek test, following the Kidney-Chek protocol. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine were also assessed.Results: Twenty-one cats were included in the study. One cat was excluded due to dry saliva sample collection. Final results showed that the SUN test strips were 84% accurate in identifying azotemia or non-azotemia. Azotemia was correctly identified in 78.57% of cats and non-azotemia was correctly identified in 90.9% of cats. Positive correlations were noted between SUN and BUN and SUN and creatinine. There was a negative correlation between SUN and urine specific gravity. No correlation was identified between hydration level and SUN. Hydration had no effect on test results.Conclusion: Salivary urea nitrogen results from the Kidney-Chek salivary test were correlated to BUN and creatinine results. This test can be used to detect azotemia in selected cases of feline urethral obstruction.Clinical relevance: This study demonstrated that SUN may be used to detect azotemia in cats at risk of urinary tract obstruction. This test may be useful for clients to use at home, before bringing their animals to the clinic, or as a cost-saving alternative in a clinic setting. Access to an immediately available azotemia reading can help practitioners make guided treatment recommendations and determine if cats are good candidates for outpatient treatment.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 7","pages":"774-780"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12261947/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144648625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All calves received tulathromycin at induction for bovine respiratory disease (BRD).Procedure: Calves that developed SA were allocated to a randomized clinical field trial over a 2-year period. Arthritic calves (n = 251) were treated with florfenicol, oxytetracycline, or tulathromycin. Morbidity outcomes were SA relapses (1st and 2nd) and BRD. Causes of mortality were categorized as infectious (BRD, Histophilus somni, SA) and SA alone. Additional outcomes were early shipment for salvage slaughter (railer) and the sum of infectious mortality events and railer events (total fallout). Calves were followed for 90 d post-allocation.Results: The numbers of calves allocated to florfenicol, oxytetracycline, and tulathromycin treatments were 85, 81, and 85, respectively. There were no differences in health outcomes among antimicrobial treatments (P > 0.05).Conclusion: This clinical field trial identified no health outcome differences when comparing florfenicol, oxytetracycline, and tulathromycin for the 1st treatment of SA in feedlot calves.Clinical relevance: Practitioners can use these results when creating treatment protocols for SA cases. Since results indicated similar health outcomes among the 3 antimicrobials, the lowest-priced antimicrobial may be the most cost-effective option. Perhaps antimicrobial treatment does not affect SA outcomes, but this could not be determined as negative controls were not included in this study.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 7","pages":"764-773"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12261943/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144648627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dog had been diagnosed with small-cell T-cell gastrointestinal (GI) lymphoma 2 wk before presentation and had received long-term medical management for atopic dermatitis. On physical examination, enlarged submandibular, prescapular, and popliteal lymph nodes were detected bilaterally. Erythema, edema, and crusts were also present on the periocular region with alopecia. In addition, multiple erythematous nodules were detected on the body surface. Fine-needle aspirate (FNA) from the lesions showed a population of large, round cells with prominent nucleoli, suggestive of cutaneous lymphoma. Based on the history, physical examination, and FNA cytology, the disease was suspected to be secondary cutaneous lymphoma secondary to small T-cell GI lymphoma with involvement of lymph nodes. The dog died on the day of the hospital visit, and further diagnostic procedures and treatment could not be conducted. Key clinical message: Soon after abdominal surgery that incompletely resected a small T-cell GI lymphoma, a dog rapidly developed secondary cutaneous lymphoma with erythematous skin nodules and several enlarged peripheral lymph nodes. Features were acute onset, severe systemic illness, and rapid cutaneous involvement. The diagnosis was confirmed based on FNA of nodules and enlarged lymph nodes supported the diagnosis, but the dog died very soon after referral.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 7","pages":"734-739"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12261945/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144648622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
