  • 4개월 된 수컷 진도 견에서 좌측 후지 파행이 발생하였다. 방사선 검사에서 양측 경골 견인 골단 아래 작은 골편이 관찰되었으나, 견인 골단의 변위는 없었다. 그 후 양측 경골 조면 부위의 골밀도는 방사선 투과성에서 비투과성으로 변화하였다. 좌측 경골은 수술 후 회복되었으나, 우측 경골은 보존적 처치로 자가 치료되었다. 본 환자는 경골조면의 부분 견열골절로 진단되었으며, 이는 개에서 'Osgood-Schlatter disease'로 불려져 왔던 질환이다. 이 증례는 환자의 경골조면 부분 견열골절의 순차적인 방사선학적 영상 변화에 대한 유용한 임상적 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

  • A 11-year-old, female Russian Blue cat was presented with anorexia, vomiting, and diarrhea lasting for 3 days. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed a hypoechoic, non-circumferential, and eccentrically formed intestinal loop with altered wall layering and thickening of the tunica muscularis. After surgical resection, histopathologic examination confirmed an infiltrative, round-cell neoplasm composed of sheets and cords of neoplastic mast cells within a fibrotic, edematous stroma. The cat was alive and healthy 6 months after surgery. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an intestinal mast cell tumor in a Russian Blue cat in South Korea.

  • An adult beagle dog was presented with a cervical mass detected by palpation and computed tomography. Fine needle aspirates revealed numerous epithelial cells with plasmacytoid appearance and frequent naked nuclei. Histologically, the mass consists of multiple packets of neoplastic cells and extensive areas of necrosis and fibrosis. Neoplastic cells were also found in submandibular lymph nodes. Immunohistochemistry showed that neoplastic cells were positive for calcitonin and negative for thyroglobulin. Based on these findings, the cervical mass was diagnosed as thyroid C-cell carcinoma. Almost one year after the surgical excision, the dog remains healthy without any symptom of recurrence or metastasis.

  • 11 year old male Yorkshire terrier was referred to Haemaru Referral Animal Hospital with signs of hematuria, petechia, and gynecomastia. Blood works revealed severe leukopenia, moderate anemia and severe thrombocytopenia. On ultrasonography and radiography, mixed echo texture mass was found in abdomen. The abdominal mass was surgically removed, and submitted for histopathology. Histopathologic features of the tissues were consistent with malignant Sertoli cell tumor. Bone marrow aspirates were hypocellular. Serum estrogen concentration was 72.80 pg/ml (normal range for females <15 pg/ml) after surgery. Clinical signs of feminization and hemorrhagic diathesis were attributed to hyperestrinism caused by the tumor. The dog was put on fluid therapy, antibiotics and palliative drugs and survived 2 more weeks after surgery without clinical improvement.

  • Canine atopic dermatitis (CAD) is a ubiquitous, chronic inflammatory skin disorder prevalent in dogs, which results in production of abnormal levels of IgE antibodies in reciprocation to an allergen challenge. In this study, administration of the probiotic strain Lactobacillus sakei probio-65 for 2 months significantly reduced the disease severity index in experimental dogs diagnosed with CAD. In addition, one month pre-medication of L. sakei probio-65 revealed significant difference in the PVAS score in experimental dogs for both probio-65 and placebo groups. However, post 2 months treatment resulted in a significant decrease in the CASESI score values in the probio-65-treated group (p < .0.06).

  • A Maltese was presented with a subcutaneous mass at right flank, depression and hyperthermia. Ultrasonography revealed a hypoechoic mass with hyperechoic foci, a defect of abdominal wall and peritonitis. In cytology, fat necrosis was found. This dog was diagnosed as chronic suppurative steatitis secondary to pancreatitis and pancreatic herniation through surgery and histopathologic examination. Steatitis is recurrent inflammation and necrosis of adipose tissue. Also steatitis associated with pancreatic diseases such as pancreatitis and pancreatic tumor was reported and direct fat necrosis by pancreatic enzyme was supposed as the etiology. Steatitis secondary to pancreatitis was rarely reported in dogs and there was difficulty in diagnosis and treatment. This case has a limitation that pancreatitis was not diagnosed as underlying cause to steatitis before surgery. However, a defect of abdominal wall and peritonitis were observed on ultrasonography. Good prognosis could be achieved through prompt surgery and medical treatment.

수의과대학 반려동물병원의 프로그램 및 공간구성에 관한 연구 - 최근 10년 내에 준공 된 국내 수의과대학 동물병원 분석을 중심으로 (A Study on the Medical Program and Space Configuration for Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital - Focused on the Analysis of Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital built in the last ten years of Korea)

  • Purpose: At the moment prevention and treatment of animal related diseases is becoming a social concern as the demand for animal increases. Furthermore, The design of the veterinary medical teaching hospital are even more complex because they have to accommodate medical program for animal and education and research program for students. However, there are a few experience and useful guidelines for the planning of the veterinary medical teaching hospital. So it is not easy for the regional hub universities to work out the proper plan for the construction of the veterinary medical teaching hospital for their own. This study has been started in order to provide basic informations for the planning of Korean veterinary medical teaching hospital. Methods: Interview to veterinarian, intern and employee of the veterinary medical teaching hospital and Field surveys to veterinary medical teaching hospital in Korea have been conducted for the data collection. The drawings of three universities of veterinary medical teaching hospital have been analysed and diagramed. Results: The result of this study can be summarized into three points. The first one is that the veterinary medical teaching hospital spaces are divided into five areas (ambulatory care, central medical care, hospitalization, education and research, operations and support) and each area is divided independently and connected properly. The second one is that the veterinary medical teaching hospital differs from hospital in the detailed space plan in the sense that the animal is a patient. The third one is that each hospital has different operating practices and programs according to local conditions Implications: It is meaningful as a basic source of veterinary medical teaching hospital design in the future.

  • A poodle with clinical signs of colorectal disease was diagnosed as pneumatosis coli. In this dog, hypoadrenocorticism and immune-mediated hemolytic anemia concurred. Pneumatosis coli is one of the emphysematous gastrointestinal diseases. The etiology is unknown but mechanical, pulmonary and bacterial theories have been proposed. In pneumatosis coli, gas accumulates within submucosal or subserosal layer of colon or rectum, so intramural radiolucent gas is observed on abdominal radiographs. In this dog, intramural gas accumulation occurred in cecum. Definitive diagnosis was based on radiographic findings and an underlying cause was not elicited. Pneumatosis coli should be included into differential diagnosis for nonspecific colorectal signs.
