Abstract

The Korea Institute of Oriental White Stork Rehabilitation Research (KIOWSRR) is breeding oriental white storks for residential rehabilitation in South Korea. Three oriental white storks were referred with anorexia and depression. Two storks were died before examinations and one stork was died after 1 day of fluid therapy. On necropsy, salmon-colored subcutaneous and visceral fats were examined in all storks. Multiple focal necroses on liver surface were also examined. In gizzards, many gravels and grasses were severely tangled; therefore, it produced a large mass that blocked digestive system of the storks. Small intestinal segments of the stork, which was dead after the fluid therapy, were severely adhesive. On histopathology, diffuse necroses with/without inflammation were examined in the liver, gizzard and intestine in all storks. Bile stasis was additionally examined in the liver. According to the results of the examinations, all storks were diagnosed as gizzard impaction caused by parorexia.

한국교원대학교 황새복원센터에서는 한국내 야생 황새 복원을 위해 인공적인 황새 사육을 진행중이다. 세 마리의 황새가 식욕부진과 침울을 보여 충북대학교 동물의료센터에 진료 의뢰되었다. 두 마리는 내원 전 사망하였으며, 한 마리는 내원 후 수액요법을 실시하였으나 1일 후 사망하였다. 부검시 salmon-color의 피하 및 내장지방이 전체 황새에서 관찰되었다. 간 표면의 다발성 국소 괴사병소도 확인되었다. 근육위 내강에는 많은 양의 풀과 자갈이 뭉쳐져 큰 덩어리를 형성하고 있었으며, 유문부는 이것에 의해 폐색되어 있었다. 수액요법을 받은 황새의 소장 분절은 유착되어 있었다. 조직병리학적 검사상 염증을 동반하지 않은 괴사병변이 전체 황새의 간, 근육위, 장에서 관찰되었다. 간에서는 담즙정체도 관찰되었다. 이 검사 결과들에 기초하여 황새들은 이식증에 의한 사낭 경색증으로 최종 진단되었다.
