A 9-year-old castrated male domestic shorthair cat with dysuria, anorexia, vomiting, and lethargy was admitted to the veterinary teaching hospital. A large, firm mass was palpable in the ventral cervical region. Hypercalcemia, azotemia, and nonregenerative anemia were evident on serum biochemical
OBJECTIVE
To determine outcome of renal transplantation in cats with renal failure associated with calcium oxalate urolithiasis.
METHODS
Retrospective case series.
METHODS
19 cats.
METHODS
Medical records were reviewed for evaluation of signalment, preoperative clinical signs, physical examination
Long marketed antiemetics, which are still used in medicine or veterinary medicine and whose sites of actions were either assumed to be peripheral or unknown, were subjected to evaluation as antiemetics, against oral copper sulfate emesis. In cats, ethyl aminobenzoate 0.5 g/head, cerium oxalate 0.1
Oxalate nephropathy is a rare condition and may be overlooked due to lack of recognition and understanding of triggers. An 81-year-old man was sent to nephrologist because of significantly increased creatinine (1.5-1.9 mg/dL) noted for 3 months. He had well-controlled diabetes but no history of
We present the case of a 61-year-old Caucasian male veteran who had been on orlistat (120mg dosing) for four years, and had changed to the over-the-counter (OTC) form, Alli (orlistat 60mg), about three months before presentation. He had been experiencing nausea and vomiting for three weeks prior to
Acute oxalate nephropathy associated with ingestion of star fruit (carambola) has not been reported before. We report the first two cases. These patients developed nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and backache within hours of ingesting large quantities of sour carambola juice; then acute renal
OBJECTIVE
To examine the clinical signs, laboratory and radiographic findings, surgical technique, ureterolith composition, and post-operative outcomes in dogs managed surgically for ureterolithiasis to determine whether surgical removal of ureteroliths in dogs resulted in a positive clinical
On about one fourth of the patients ureteral colics caused by oxalate and phosphate calculi lead to a reversible hyperuricemia. This result seems to be important, because we might wrongly diagnose a uric acid calculus. The reason for hyperuricemia is a temporary diuretic disturbance of the uric
Although crystals are rarely identified on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) microscopy, their presence can be of significant diagnostic value. We report a case of oxalate crystals seen on CSF microscopy of a 43-year-old woman. The patient presented with headaches, nausea and vomiting. CT of the head showed
Clinicopathologic findings were retrospectively evaluated in 26 cats and 24 dogs with ethylene glycol intoxication. Common clinical signs were ataxia, depression, vomiting, and hypothermia. Characteristic alterations in the hemogram and serum chemical profile included neutrophilia, lymphopenia,
Eight dogs with ethylene glycol intoxication were treated with 4-methylpyrazole, an alcohol dehydrogenase inhibitor. Dogs had clinical signs referable to ethylene glycol ingestion including ataxia, depression, vomiting, polyuria, and dehydration. Metabolic abnormalities included high anion gap
