Digital radiography and high-resolution ultrasonography equipment are becoming ubiquitous in companion animal practices, while high-speed computed tomography (CT) and magnetic reso- nance imaging (MRI) are increasingly common. Together, these advances in imaging technology have dramatically enhanced the ability of veterinarians to identify disease. Along with rapid development in diagnostic imaging, the profession is experiencing an explosive growth in specialized diagnostic tests for many diseases. We now know that pancreatitis in cats is common, yet the way that the disease manifests is very different between dogs and cats. Diagnosis and assessment of respiratory diseases is much more accurate and meaningful with blood gas analysis, CT examination, and bronchoscopy. Some diseases once thought idiopathic are now known to have infectious etiologies. The total amount of knowledge available to clients and practitioners has grown expo- nentially and continues to do so. All of these changes increase the challenge of modern internal medicine practice but also allow us to treat our patients more effectively. The aim of this book is to present an assortment of cases and case-related materials that are appropriate to the day-to-day practice of small animal medicine, predomi- nantly using example cases that could present well to a generalist veterinary prac- tice. Our hope is that the book will be of value for everyone—from senior students studying internal medicine to specialists in training and experienced internal medicine practitioners desiring a refresher. These cases cover a wide spectrum of metabolic, endocrine, immune-mediated, inflammatory, and infectious diseases. Cases range in difficulty from simple bacterial infections to complex, multisystem disorders that would challenge most practitioners. Some are straightforward in approach, while for others the optimum approach is an area of controversy. The authors are from varying practice backgrounds and specialties, and each brings their own expertise and experi- ence to problem identification and management. Cases are presented in random order and, in many cases, the presentation occurs in several parts as problems are identified, testing is carried out, and then therapeutic plans are made. Cases are grouped by broad subject area in the Broad Classification of Case Numbers listing below. Clinical chemistry values and diagnostic test results are given in both SI and imperial units where possible. As laboratories vary with respect to expected values, reference intervals are provided for each case that are appropriate to the laboratory carrying out the testing. v Broad Classification of Case Numbers Cardiology 86, 90 Large Intestine 11, 34, 40, 49, 58, 69, Diagnostic Testing 29, 94, 130, 139 70, 151 Effusions 16, 107 Lower Urinary Tract 85, 95, 97, 108 Electrolytes and Acid/Base 22, 83, 120 Miscellaneous Metabolic Disorders 23, Endocrine 17, 21, 25, 30, 33, 39, 57, 62, 46, 55, 68, 84, 128, 132, 147 71, 76, 80, 82, 96, 104, 109, Neurology 61, 93, 101, 140 110, 113, 123, 142 Oncology 70, 105, 152 Esophageal 32, 51, 75, 89, 118, 124 Oral Cavity 15 Gastric Diseases 10, 36, 79, 112, 115, 116 Pancreas 27, 35, 41, 117 Hematology 6, 8, 38, 60, 127, 148 Rectoanal 19, 99, 125, 131, 144 Hepatobiliary 3, 6, 12, 20, 24, 31, 37, Renal Diseases 7, 9, 73, 74, 114, 133, 47, 50, 72, 88, 103, 150, 152 135 Immune Mediated 121, 134, 153, 154 Reproductive 18, 78, 81, 98, 138 Infectious Diseases 43, 44, 45, 48, 53, Respiratory 1, 4, 26, 28, 52, 59, 63, 66, 54, 64, 67, 77, 91, 106, 126, 87, 122, 141 136, 145, 146, 149 Small Intestinal 2, 13, 14, 42, 56, 65, Intestinal/Abdominal Emergencies 111, 92, 100, 102, 119, 129, 137 143, 148 vii Contributors Lindsay Gilmour Susanne Stieger-Vanegas Texas A&M University Department of Clinical Sciences College of Veterinary & Biomedical Oregon State University Sciences Corvallis, Oregon College Station, Texas Katie Tolbert Yuri Lawrence Small Animal Clinical Sciences Texas A&M University The University of Tennessee College of Veterinary & Biomedical Knoxville, Tennessee Sciences College Station, Texas Austin Viall Veterinary Pathology Jonathan Lidbury College of Veterinary Medicine Texas A&M University Iowa State University College of Veterinary & Biomedical Ames, Iowa Sciences College Station, Texas Craig Ruaux Massey University School of Veterinary Science Palmerston North, New Zealand ix
