what is the structure of the bovine kidney how is it different from other animals
|
bovine kidney is lobulated. multipyramidal type
separate medullary pyramids capped by a continuous cortex each medullary pyramid that fits into a calyx formed by a terminal ureter branch. terminal ureter branch-> forms a single ureter |
|
what do urine dipsticks rely on to detect acetoacetate and acetone

does B-hydroxybutyrate react with nitroprusside
|
fuck no; and that is the importatn one

what are acetone and B-hydroxybutyrate derived from
|
acetoacetate
|
|
what is assumed to be present if a urine ketone test is positive in a bovine
|
acetone and B-hydroxybutyrate
|
|
if B-hydroxybutyrate predominates will you have a neg or positve ketone test
|
negative
|

what can cause a false positive for proteinuria on a urine dipstick
|
highly alkaline urine in ruminants
|
|
who can have proteinuria and its OK
|
neonatal ruminants less than 2 days old that have ingested adequate colostrum
|
|
what can cause proteinuria?
|
any insult to the glomeruli or tubules could lead to mild or moderate proteinuria
(renal infarcts, glomerulonepthritis, tubular nephrosis, amyloidosis, pyelonephritis, inflammation, urine mixed with vag discharge) |
|
what causes glycosuria- basic stuff-
|
blood glucose spilling over into the urine
renal threshold in ruminants > 80-100 mg/dL in peripheral blood |

what can cause a false positive glycosuria
|
penicillin, tetracycline, asprin
|
|
what is the best way to dx hematuria
|
microscopic is best
|
|
what can't a urine dipstick differentiate hematuria from
|
hematuria, hemoglobinuria, or myobloinuria
|
|
where can hematuria originate from
|
kidney, urethra, ureter, bladder, or vagina
|
|
what can frank blood in the urine be caused by
|
pyelonephritis, calculi, or cystitis
|
|
what color is myoglobinuria and what causes it
|
brown to brownish-red
causes: exertional myopathy downer cows coffee weed poisoning diffuse nutritional myopath (vit E/ sel def) |
|
what color is hemoglobinuria and what causes it
|
reddish urine due to marked intravascular hemolysis that exceeds renal threshold
causes- water intoxication, hypotonic IV fluids, onion, rye grass, bacillary hemoglobinuria, leptosporsis (calves), babesiosis, post parturient hemoglobinuria, some plants and heavy metals |
|
what causes bilirubinuria
|
obstructive jaundice (rare), caused by: biliary stones, abscess, neoplasia
|
|
is urobilnogen of diagnostic use in cattle?
|
no
|
|
what causes urine leukocytosis
|
UTI, infection, obstruction, cystitis
1-5 WBC/ HPF is NORMAL gross pyuria= pyelonephritis or cystitis |
|
when will you see hyaline casts
|
they are protein and when there is severe nephrosis
|
|
when will you see granular casts
|
when there is damage to the tubular epithelium
|
|
what is fraction excretion for urinary tract dz test
|
collect current urine and serum samples
|
|
what is the fractional excretion equation
|
FE= ((urine Na x Serum Cr)/ (urine Cr x serum Na)) x 100
|
|
what does it mean if you have a low fractional excretion
|
Na retention by kindey= pre-renal problem
|
|
what does it mean if you have a high fractional excretion
|
Na wasting by kidney = intrinsic pathway
|
|
what is the normal FE of Na+ in sheep?
|
< 1%
|
|
what does > 1% Na+ of FE in sheep mean
|
primary tubular dz or Na+ toxicosis
|
|
what is the etiology of ulcerative posthitis and vulvitis (enzootic balanoposthisis, pizzle rot, sheath rot)
|
dz of ext. genitalia of male small ruminants. occasionally females and cattle. most common in OLDER males. affects lambs < 6mo
|
|
which breeds of sheep are more affected by ulcerative posthitis
|
merino and angora breeds due to their dense wool and hair coats
|
|
when will you see hyaline casts
|
they are protein and when there is severe nephrosis
|
|
when will you see granular casts
|
when there is damage to the tubular epithelium
|
|

|

|
|

|

|
|
what is the normal FE of Na+ in sheep?
|
< 1%
|
|
what does > 1% Na+ of FE in sheep mean
|
primary tubular dz or Na+ toxicosis
|
|
what is the etiology of ulcerative posthitis and vulvitis (enzootic balanoposthisis, pizzle rot, sheath rot)
|
dz of ext. genitalia of male small ruminants. occasionally females and cattle. most common in OLDER males. affects lambs < 6mo
|
|
which breeds of sheep are more affected by ulcerative posthitis
|
merino and angora breeds due to their dense wool and hair coats. the urethral orifice becomes urine soaked increasing the local urea concentration
|
|
how is ulcerative posthitis transmitted
|
contagious through necrotic debris from the ulcers
venereal transmission has been documented |
|
which bacteria causes ulcerative posthitis
|
corynevbacterium renale its aerobic gram positive pleomorphic bacterium
normal flora of skin and ext genitalia |
|
where can cornebacterium renale live
|
in wool and scabs for up to 6 months
|
|
what provides protection for cornebacterium renale from freezing
|
exudate
|
|
what is required for induction and maintenance of ulcerative posthitis
|
urine is required for induction and maintenance of the lesion. cornebacterium renale hydrolyzes urea to ammonia which causes ulcerations-> c. renale proliferates on genital mucosa in response to inc. urea concentrations -> diets high in crude protein, non-protein nitrogen, or diets high in legumes -> elevation of urinary urea concentration
|
|
what are clinical signs of ulcerative posthitis in males
|
moist ulcer at the mucocutantous jxn of the prepuce. little to no bleeding associated with scab removal.
focal swelling at cranial prepuce painful palaption infection spreads and cuaes fibrous adhesions between the penis and prepuce |
|
what are some CS of goats with ulcerative posthitis
|
goats vocalize upon attempts to urinate. stricture of the urethral process, decreased breeding soundness

|
what are clinical signs of ulcerative vulvulis in females
|
ulcerative lesions can develop on the vulva nad perinuem of ewes and does, vulvular enlargement, dysuria, distortion of vulvular conformation which can impair copulation and or parturition
