This report apparently is the first to describe candidosis in reindeer. It is imperative that reindeer kept in corrals during winter and spring for supplementary feeding, are provided clean, dry conditions and that strict hygenic measures are followed. If reindeer on the other hand are kept in dirty, wet and muddy corrals, among other things, skin lesions due to fungal infections may possibly appear rather frequently.

I have read with interest Doctors Adams' and El-Salawy's comments on my case report identified in their letter as the "Lausanne baby." I do think that the "Lausanne baby" represents a case of pulmonary vascular sequestration inasmuch as the inferior lobe of the left lung received its blood supply by means of three arterial branches coming off directly from the aorta. On the other hand, I do not think that the "Lausanne baby" is a case of pulmonary parenchymal sequestration and this because the inferior lobe of the left lung was proven to be, at least to my satisfaction, in direct communication with the remainder of the respiratory tract.

Hepatobiliary Scan

Ectopic gall bladder is a rare entity. It can often be misdiagnosed causing diagnostic dilemma leading to various complications. Ultrasonography is the most common investigation for evaluating gall bladder pathologies. However, the confirmation of ectopic gallbladder is not easily possible by this method. On the other hand, hepatobiliary scan (HIDA scan) plays an important role in evaluating the presence and position of ectopic gallbladder. Here we present a case of sonographically suspected ectopic gallbladder confirmed by hepatobiliary scan highlighting the importance of HIDA scan in ectopic gallbladder.Bangladesh J.

Inorganic And Organic

Ground samples of hayed-off pasture plants were decomposed in the laboratory under continuously moist, and intermittently moist and dry, conditions. During the course of decomposition they were leached at different frequencies and the resulting changes in inorganic and organic phosphorus measured. The dissolution of superphosphate and its conversion to organic phosphorus were also studied under some of these conditions.Inorganic phosphate was readily leached from the samples when microbes were inhibited. Microbial activity, on the other hand, largely prevented the loss of inorganic phosphate by leaching from a phalaris sample over a period of 3 months. Intermittent drying increased the amount of phosphate leached from decomposing plants but the leaching frequencies examined had little effect. The percentage of the phosphorus leached from plants varied with the type of material. In all cases less than half was recovered as inorganic phosphate, even after decomposition and leaching for 6 months. When superphosphate granules were leached in the presence of decomposing plants the conversion of fertilizer phosphate to organic phosphorus was small, but the dissolution of phosphate was sometimes retarded. The recycling of phosphate in hayed-off pastures is discussed in the light of these results.

The study aimed to investigate the impact of supplementary feeding on the young camels calve growth rate and daily gain. A total of 16 heads of young male camel calves from the Arabic camel breeds were selected and div ided into four equal groups (1, 2,3,4). Four heads of camel calves in each group, their body weight ranged from 176 - 220 kg. Experimental animal in group one was control supplemented nothings jus t depend on the natural range land, group two was feed on watermelon seeds, group three was allowanced concentrated diet composed of ground nut cake and the animals in group four intake mixture diet consist of watermelon seeds and ground nut cake 50% for e ach. The body weight of the experimental animal was determined biweekly using table balance. The random complete experimental design was used and the Analysis of variance and Tukey test were applied for data analysis and means separation. The results indic ated that the average Body weights of the camel calves were 174.75±3.3, 275.93± 9.0, 241.50± 8.5 and 236.50±8.2 Kg, in group one, two, three and four respectively. The higher body weight was recorded in group two (275.93±9 Kg) in which the animals feed on watermelon seeds and followed by group three and four (241.50± 8.5 and 236.50±8.2) respectively. On the other hand the less camel calves body weight was obtained in group one (control) that experimental animals not intake supplementary feeding. Highly diff erences (P ≤ 0.01) were obtained in the body weight between the groups. The daily gain of the first group, second, third and fourth were 214±12g, 624±28g, 542±19g and 528±12g, respectively, while no significant differences (P ≥ 0.01) between diets groundnut cake 242 kg and mixture diet 237 kg. The protein content was higher in ground nut cake 41% when compared to the protein content in watermelon seeds 36%, on the other hand the percentage of fat was highest in watermelon seeds 27.8% compared to ground nut ca ke 13.4%.

Real Challenge

Colonic perforation post colonoscopy is rarely seen; however, when coupled with massive pneumoperitoneum in haemodynamically stable patients, a real dilemma for surgeons is created. The decision between watchful waiting versus surgical intervention is the real challenge and while most surgeons will urge for surgical intervention, conservative management on the other hand can be safely applied in selected haemodynamically stable patients.

Orthodontic Extrusion

Orthodontic extrusion can be time consuming and has a long retention period, making cooperation a critical factor. On the other hand, it has also been shown that surgical techniques may be useful to extrude and save the root. Surgical methods need at least 3 week for root stabilization in new position. This is a case report of a surgical method to treat intruded teeth.

Chronic Myelopathy

AbstractHTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is an important cause of nontraumatic and noncompressive chronic myelopathy which generally has no improvement regardless of treatment. On the other hand, ossification of the ligamentum flavum (OLF) is also a cause of myelopathy; however, it can improve in some cases when surgical treatment is well applied. In this case report, we presented a case of a patient with HAM/TSP overlapping OLF which showed some improvement with surgical treatment.

Dermatophytoses or ringworm are the most common fungal infections in dogs and cats. This zoonotic disease is called dermatophytosis. A 2 years old male Persian cat referred to the Veterinary Clinic Faculty of Veterinary medicine, Universitas Gadjah Mada with multi-focal circular non-pruritic skin lesions and hair loss mainly on the head and ears. A complete series of dermatologic tests such as Wood’s light examination, direct microscopic examination, and fungal culture were performed. The cat was treated with itraconazole dosage orally for a period of 20 days and ketoconazole topical for 35 days, respectively. Thirty five days after treatments the cat showed reduction of lesions.

Purpose: This report aims to present a case with pregnancy-induced keratoconus (KC) progression and recovery in topographical parameters after a period from delivery/breastfeeding. Methods: A 29-year-old woman with bilateral KC experienced progression in maximum keratometry (Kmax; from 47.6 to 48.2 D in the OD and from 53.7 to 55.2 D in the OS) and several Pentacam indices in both eyes. Results: The Belin ABCD progression score remained unchanged in the right eye (A0B2C0D0) but increased in the left eye (from A2B3C1D1 to A2B4C1D1) (Pentacam HR, Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany) during pregnancy/breastfeeding. About 6-months after cessation of breastfeeding, Kmax improved to baseline values in both eyes. Although there were improvements in “A” and “B” scores, final ABCD stage remained higher than the baseline value in the left eye. Conclusions: The current report shows asymmetrically bilateral progression of KC during pregnancy and early post-delivery period, which was followed by a partial recovery in Pentacam parameters after discontinuation of breastfeeding. These findings seem to confirm the postulated link between pregnancy and KC progression. On the other hand, in patients with KC, pregnancy-induced corneal alterations might recover after delivery/breastfeeding and clinician should wait for stabilization of corneal parameters to determine treatment strategy.

Pregnant Rabbit

Pregnancy in rabbits alters the reactivity of the tissues to the virus of infectious myxomatosis. The livers of pregnant animals with the myxoma have a central acidophilic necrosis. Secondary lesions in the lungs are much more numerous and larger in the pregnant than in the non-gravid animals. In like manner the lesions in the spleen are more extensive in the pregnant rabbit. On the other hand the skin lesions of the pregnant animal are decreased in size.
