Effects on the healing process of the wound was compared between acupuncture and medicament anesthesia. Ten adult dogs were used and for medicament anesthesia thiopental sodium (Ravonal R) was injected. Incisions were made under anesthesia and thereafter clinical signs were observed and histopathological examinations were performed. No differences were found in the clinical signs between the 2 groups. Macroscopically and microscopically, the healing process was a little faster in the wounds under medicament anesthesia

Authors observed an outbreak of porcine pleuropneumonia at a piggery in Kyongbuk, Korea R. which were diagnosed on the ground of clinical and pathological findings. Main clinical findings observed from 60 alive pigs from group consisted of fever, cyanosis severe degree of dyspnea and pleuritic friction rub. Hematological observation for typical 5 cases leukocytes showed marked degenerative left shift with leukopenia (10500-13070/cmm), neutropenia (7-13% and increase in the number of band neutrophils (6-27%)

The present observations were focussed mainly on the macroscopic and histopathological examinations of polyps found on the stomach of 4-month-old pig, small intestine of 3-month-old pig and cecum of 9-month-old dog. The polyps were gray or pink hemispherical shapes attached by the broad base to the gastrointestinal walls and were 3 to 8 mm in diameter and diffuse appearance. The surfaces of polyps were flat or indented and were ulcerated in some large polyps

In this study lactating female rabbits and strains of coliforms previously isolated from acute and chronic mastitis cases in dairy cattle were used. The pathological changes on mastitis experimentally induced with the coliform strains and the mammary glands after infusions of Escherichia coli suspension together with dexamethasone, dextran iron or transferrin were grossly and microscopically observed. In the bacterial suspension-infused groups by E. coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter aerogenes, the affected quarters of udder showed gross swelling, hyperemia, hemorrhage, focal necrosis and firmness

This paper deals with the histopathological observations of the perirenal edema in pigs and rabbits administered with Amaranthus retroflexus, based on the clinical and pathological observations of the porcine perirenal edema naturally occurring in Korea R. In the natural case, clinical signs are trembling, weakness and incoordination of the hindquarters, followed by sternal recumbency, coma and death. Death usually occurs within 24 hrs after the appearance of illness signs
