Effects of corn oil ingestion on the intestinal mucosa of normal dogs.

Institute of Animal Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, Gyeongsang National University, Jinju, Republic of Korea.

Introduction: We assessed corn oil's oral effectiveness in detecting small bowel changes in healthy dogs through ultrasonography, endoscopy, and histopathology. We hypothesize that corn oil ingestion will not significantly increase the visibility of lymphatics and lacteals in healthy dogs.

Methods: Five healthy male beagles were studied under institutional guidelines.

Objective: Scattered white spots (SWS) seen in the duodenum during esophagogastroduodenoscopy are rare lesions. The histopathologic examination of SWS lesions reveals normal duodenal mucosa (ND), chronic nonspecific duodenitis, and intestinal lymphangiectasia (IL). The intestinal epithelium, through its barrier function, is responsible for tightly controlling antigen traffic from the intestinal lumen to the submucosa.

Article Synopsis
  • The small intestine and ampulla can develop various benign tumors and tumor-like diseases that may resemble cancer, highlighting the need for pathologists to have a comprehensive understanding of these conditions.
  • Key examples of these benign issues include Brunner gland lesions, different types of polyps, and various mesenchymal proliferations like inflammatory fibroid polyps and leiomyomas.
  • The review aims to clarify the histopathological features of these benign conditions to aid pathologists in making accurate diagnoses and differentiating them from malignant tumors.

Article Synopsis
  • - Pseudolipomatosis (PL) is a rare, benign condition linked to gas penetration in the colorectal mucosa, often occurring due to injury during endoscopic procedures, but its exact cause is still not fully understood.
  • - It's important for medical professionals to recognize PL to prevent unnecessary treatments, and techniques like immunohistochemistry can help distinguish it from similar conditions.
  • - A case study involving a 70-year-old man revealed duodenal pseudolipomatosis, marking a rare occurrence, as only two previous cases were reported, and no other instances were found in a review of over 500 duodenal biopsies.

Primary intestinal lymphangiectasia (PIL) is a rare disorder characterized by dilated lymphatic vessels in the gastrointestinal tract, leading to protein-losing enteropathy (PLE). We report the case of a 43-year-old male presenting with refractory PLE, characterized by generalized edema, chronic diarrhea, and significant weight loss over four months. Despite multiple consultations and treatments for presumed inflammatory bowel disease, his symptoms persisted, and his condition worsened.
