Background: Traumatic reticulopericarditis (TRP) is rarely reported in camels. This report provides TRP in camels.

Case Description: She-camel (3 years old) with a history of anorexia, and stinky smell-bloody diarrhea for more than 3 weeks associated with pain, ventral thoracoabdominal edema, positive for metal detection examination that raised the suspicion of TRP.

Article Synopsis
  • This study introduced a new technique for administering mandibular nerve blocks in dromedary camels, examining 18 skulls for anatomical mapping.
  • Researchers measured three key distances related to the mandibular foramen using precise tools, and tested the technique on five camel cadaver heads to ensure accuracy.
  • The results showed that the intraoral technique is effective for achieving local anesthesia, benefiting veterinary anesthesia practices, but further research is needed to assess its long-term safety and effectiveness compared to current methods.

Understanding the clinical anatomy of the head is essential for performing proper inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) block anesthesia to facilitate invasive dental procedures in camels. However, osteometric data related to the IAN in camels are lacking. This study was carried out to accurately locate the mandibular foramen (MF) and the course of the IAN in the camel head and to establish an approach for its localization in clinical practice.

Article Synopsis
  • * Key findings for the mitral valve included average values for E-wave and A-wave velocities, pressure gradients, and durations, while the aortic valve showed similar measurements with slightly higher velocity and pressure gradient.
  • * The resulting reference values for these echocardiographic parameters can assist veterinarians in diagnosing and treating cardiovascular issues in donkeys.

This study was conducted to establish a detailed anatomic reference for the carpal joint of apparently healthy donkeys using ultrasonography (US), computed tomographic (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Ten orthopedically sound adult donkeys were used for US examination of the carpal joint in each forelimb. Additionally, the carpi of ten donkey cadavers were subjected to CT and MRI examinations.

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most versatile and informative imaging modality for the diagnosis of locomotor injuries in many animal species; however, veterinary literature describing the MRI of the dromedary camel tarsus is lacking. Our purpose was to describe and compare the MRI images of twelve cadaveric tarsi, examined in a 1.5 Tesla MRI scanner, with their corresponding anatomical gross sections.
