Reticulopericardita traumatică la bovine.

Traumatic reticulopericarditis is a serious condition that can lead to significant economic losses and animal welfare issues in cattle. The disorder is caused by the ingestion of foreign bodies that penetrate the reticulum and cause damage to the pericardium, resulting in traumatic pericarditis. The ingestion of foreign bodies is often associated with indiscriminate eating habits and the mechanization of food. The clinical signs of traumatic reticulopericarditis are similar to those of other diseases, which can make early diagnosis challenging. Tachycardia, distention of the jugular veins, muffled heart sounds, and submandibular, brisket and ventral edema are common signs. Laboratory findings such as anemia, hyperfibrinogenemia, leukocytosis, neutrophilia and elevations in serum enzyme levels can help confirm the diagnosis. Ultrasonography and echocardiography can help with the detection and characterization of effusions, and the use of cardiac biomarkers can aid in the early diagnosis of traumatic reticulopericarditis. Unfortunately, the prognosis for traumatic reticulopericarditis is generally unfavorable, and the treatment is often unsatisfactory. The proper management of the disorder is crucial to prevent significant economic losses and animal welfare issues. Overall, the importance of this disease in animal production and health highlights the need for continued research and progress in its prevention and treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
