| description | <b>Aim:</b> This study was conducted for the purposes of investigating pathological
changes in intestines of dogs, detecting prevalence of them and determining
their role in being the cause of death.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods: </b>The intestines of 100 dead stray dogs were
examined in macroscopic, histopathologic, microbiologic, and parasitic
aspects. Immunohistochemical stainings were also performed for parvovirus
and distemper diseases.<p>
<b>Results:</b> Hemorrhages in 61, ulcers in 8, parasites in 36, invagination in 14 and
foreign objects in 2 of dogs were determined. Microscopically, histopathological
findings such as degeneration, necrosis and desquamation in epithelium,
bacteria colonies, hyperaemia, hemorrhages, fibrosis and inflammatory cell
infiltrations in propria, degeneration, dilatation and hyperplasia in crypts,
and depletion in lymphoid tissues were observed and their severity were
scored. Canine parvovirus positive IHC reaction was found in 90 out of 100
dogs and canine distemper virus positive reaction was found in 27 dogs,
also. Microbiologically, Campylobacter spp., Escherichia coli, Enterococcus
spp., Streptococcus spp. are found in 58 dogs. Histopathologically, 29 acute,
51 chronic, 15 lymphocytic and plasmacytic enteritis; 5 acute, 10 chronic, 6
diffuse and 20 idiopathic mucosal colitis were diagnosed,respectively.<p>
<b>Conclusion: </b>It has been emphasized that alimentary tract diseases and
lesions, mainly Parvoviral enteritis, are the first-degree cause of death in
street dogs gathered in shelters. Generally, mixed infections were found, and it
has been noticed that the lesions are increased, or primary lesions are masked
according to participation period of secondary factors to infection. |
