우리나라 의료보험 통계 결과 병원을 가장 많이 이용하는 질환 1순위는 바로 감기이다. 감기는 인류와 함께 진화되어 왔다고 해도 과언이 아닐 정도로 인간을 괴롭혀 온 가장 흔한 질환이지만, 뛰어난 현대의학으로도 정복하지 못하고 있는 가장 골치 아픈 문제이다. 자칫하면 폐렴, 중이염, 축농증, 기관지염 등 심각한 합병증이나 후유증을 유발할 수 있어서 예로부터 감기를 '만병의 근원'이라고 한다.

This study was performed to isolate and identify bacteria from uterus with pyometra and examine their susceptibility to antimicrobial agents. Uterus of 16 bitches with pyometra were surgically removed by ovariohysteroctomy and then bacteria were isolated and identified. Also, susceptibility test to 15 antimicrobial agents was performed. Out of 16 bitches, 11 strains of Escherichia coli, 2 strains of Serratia marcescens, and 1 strain of Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella spp. were identified. In antimicrobial susceptibility test, the majority of isolates were susceptible to enrofloxacin, norfloxacin, chloramphenicol, nalidixic acid, gentamicin, trimethprim-sulfamethazole, tetracycline, and moderately susceptible to carbenicillin, amikacin, ampicillin, neomycin, but resistant to vancomycin, streptomycin, bacitracin and colistin. In conclusion, E coli was the most common bacteria isolated from bitches with pyometra and those susceptible antimicrobial agents could be recommended to medical therapy of pyometra.

최근 적절한 사양관리를 위해서 유중 요소태질소 수준(MUN)과 유단백을 이용하여 사료 내 에너지와 단백질의 균형을 평가하는 지표로 활용하고 있으며 요소태질소 수준이 정상보다 크게 높거나 낮았을 때 번식능력이 저하되기 때문에 번식효율의 지표로서 활용되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 우유내 요소태질소 수준이 번식장애에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 요소태질소 수준을 번식장애의 진단지표로 활용하고자 실시하였다. 본 실험에 공시된 우유시료는 경기도 안성시와 이천시에 소재한 낙농목장에서 사육중인 조사두수를 대상으로 개체당 약 30~50$m\ell$의 우유를 채유하고 냉장보관하여 실험실로 운반하였다. 우유의 분석은 유성분분석기(Fosscomb : 4000, Fossmatic 5000, Denmark)를 이용하여 우유의 일반성분인 유지방, 유당, 유단백, 무지고형분, 총고형분, 빙점, 유중요소태질소, 구연산과 체세포를 동시에 분석하였다. 번식장애우의 진단은 낙농가가 번식장애우로 분류한 개체를 대상으로 직장검사 및 초음파 진단기를 이용하여 진단하였다. MUN준에 따른 공태일수의 조사 결과 MUN수준이 7이하 군의 공태일수가 88.98$\pm$120.68로 7-16의 92.20$\pm$105.39와 16이상의 94.42$\pm$87.51보다 다소 낮은 결과를 나타냈다. 또한 번식장애우의 발생빈도와 유성분 분석결과를 살펴보면 낙농가가 번식장애우로 분류한 68두를 진단한 결과 발정발견을 하지 못하여 번식장애우로 분류된 두수가 30두(44.1%)와 비정상두수 38두(55.9%)로 나타났으며 비정상 두수 중 난포난종이 19두(27.9%)로 영구항체6두(8.8%), 자궁내막염(10.3%), 자궁축농증 6두(8.8%)보다 많은 것으로 나타났다. 번식장애우의 유성분 분석결과 자궁축농증이 있는 개체의 유단백 평균이 3.43$\pm$0.35로 다른군에 비해 높았으며 영구항체가 있는 개체군의 MUN수준이 7.73$\pm$8.58로 다른군의 10.84$\pm$4.92, 10.89$\pm$7.38와 10.61$\pm$5.52에 비해 낮게 나타났다.

Leukemoid reaction has been rarely encountered in dogs. This report describes a case of leukemoid reaction showing extremely elevated leukocyte count. A 10-year-old female Maltese dog was presented with purulent and bloody vaginal discharge. The CBC revealed severe leukemoid reaction ($976\times10^9$ cells/l, reference range 6 to $17\times10^9$ cells/ l) and mild non-regenerative anemia. On the blood smear, elevated leukocytes consist of numerous neutrophils and monocytes only. Radiographic and ultrasonographic examinations revealed generalized enlargement of the uterus, which was filled with a complex fluid. After ovariohysterectomy, Escherichia coli was isolated from the uterine fluid. To author's knowledge, it is the new record of extreme leukemoid reaction caused by local bacterial infection in dogs.

Nine immature 30-day-old female rats were injected sc at 0800 hr with pregnant mare serum gonadotrophin(PMSG) to induce ovulation and mating. Fifty-six hours later the animals were placed with mature male rats overnight (one female and one male). Five of 9 immature female rats treated with PMSG were pregnant and allowed to maintain the pregnancy to term. Three of 5 pregnant rats were failed to maintain pregnancy to term. Two of 5 pregnant rats seemed to be developed normally and increased abdominal enlargement as pregnancy progresses, but did not occurred parturition on day of 43 or 48 of pregnancy, respectively. On day 44 or 49, pregnant rats were killed and examined uterus and ovaries. There was no fetus but approximately 50∼60ml. of mucopurulent fluids were accumulated in the uterine cavity and 40 or 42 corpora lutea persisted in the ovaries. Pyometra was developed after coitus in PMSG-treated immature female rat.

A 2.9 kg, eight-year-old Yorkshire terrier bitch with anorexia and vomiting for 2 weeks was referred to the Seoul National University Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospital. The bitch was diagnosed as open cervix pyometra by clinical sign, radiography, ultrasonography and complete blood count. The owner didn't want surgery. So, we chose the electroacupuncture and antibiotics treatment. Electroacupuncture treatment was performed for 15 days at Zi-Gong-Shu and Luan-Chao-Shu acupoints with electrical stimulus at the frequency of 5 Hz, 2~4 volts and for 20 minutes twice a day and ciprofloxacin (5 mg/kg, IM) was administered once a day. At 15 days after treatment diameter of the uterus was contracted to 6.9 mm and total WBC count was 8.5$\times$10$^3$/㎣, progesteron concentration was 0.24 ng/dl and clinical signs including vaginal discharge were disappeared. The first estrus was detected 5 months after the last treatment. With this results, the electroacupuncture for canine open cervix pyometra was considered to be the useful alternative treatment.

An English Bulldog 4 years old, Queen was hospitalized three weeks after mating as anorexia, decreased activity, hamorrhagic pus like vaginal discharge, and high fever. It was very difficult to diagnose by clinical signs and clinical pathological findings, at the first. Eenlarged uterus cavity, fluid accumulation in uterus was clearly identified by radiography and ultrasonography. The results suggest that X-ray and ultrasound is very important diagnostic method for pyometra to know disease progress.

Objectives : 19 patients diagnosed with chronic paranasal sinitis among the patients who visited to Kyunghee University Oriental Medical Center Department of Acupuncture and moxibustion from July, 1999 through July, 2000. Methods : The needle used in the treatment was 16cm in length and 0.375mm in radius. Using the straight needling method the choana was acupunctured straightly, and the opening of maxcillary sinus was acupunctured obliquely with the oblique needling method. Resuits : Looking at the effectiveness of this nasal acupuncture treatment, excellent was found in 4 cases(21%), good in 13 cases(68.4%), and unchanged in 2 cases(10.5%). The effectiveness totals up to 17 cases (89.4%) which is considerably high. Conclusions : Nasal acupuncture treatment can be used with high effectiveness in treatment of the chronic paranasal sinitis.

A 9-years-old female Collie dog was presented with history of abdominal enlargement, anorexia and constipation. On radiographic and ultrasonographic examinations, intra-abdominal mass was identified. On cytologic findings of the mass, no cancer cell was observed. Exploratory laparotomy was performed to diagnose and remove the mass. A large, single, spheroid mass weighing 9.5 kg ($40{\times}25{\times}18$ cm) was located in the middle section of the right uterine horn. Based on the results of histopathological examination, the mass was diagnosed as a cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH). This is rare case of severe focal CEH without pyometra in a bitch.
