Rabbit Hepatic Lobe Torsion: Diagnosis and Surgical Decision-Making
A DVM workflow for rabbit hepatic lobe torsion: distinguish it from uncomplicated GI stasis, use ultrasonography and Doppler to establish the diagnosis, stabilize anemia and hemorrhage risk, and interpret the limited evidence comparing lobectomy with medical management.
Read →Ichthyophthiriasis in Ornamental Fish: Diagnosis and Control
A clinical workflow for freshwater ich in ornamental fish, including wet-mount confirmation, temperature-dependent lifecycle interpretation, cohort and system assessment, treatment selection, repeat-treatment logic, and common white-spot differentials.
Read →Hedgehog Oral Masses: Diagnosis, Staging, and Treatment Planning
A DVM workflow for African pygmy hedgehog oral masses: anesthetized examination, lesion mapping, imaging, tissue diagnosis, resectability, hemostasis, pathology submission, and evidence-scoped prognosis.
Read →Murine Ulcerative Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mice: Clinical Workup
Ulcerative dermatitis in C57BL/6 and related laboratory mice is a pruritic, progressive syndrome with an incompletely defined cause and weak comparative treatment evidence. This hub covers case definition, differential diagnosis, severity tracking, cohort interpretation, and humane endpoints.
Read →Hedgehog Uterine Neoplasia: Workup of Urogenital Bleeding
Apparent hematuria in an intact female African pygmy hedgehog may originate from the reproductive tract. This clinical workflow covers localization, stabilization, imaging, sampling, surgical selection, and cohort-scoped interpretation of uterine proliferative lesions.
Read →Gas Bubble Disease in Ornamental Fish: Diagnosis and System Correction
A clinical workflow for suspected dissolved-gas supersaturation in ornamental fish, from lesion recognition and total dissolved gas measurement to gill evaluation, stabilization, differentials, and mechanical root-cause correction.
Read →Reptile Cloacal Prolapse: Organ Identification and Treatment
A DVM workflow for reptile prolapse: stabilize and protect exposed tissue, identify the organ, investigate gastrointestinal, urinary and reproductive causes, judge viability, reduce or operate, and prevent recurrence.
Read →Chinchilla Urolithiasis: Diagnosis, Obstruction, and Recurrence
A clinical workflow for chinchilla urolithiasis covering obstruction triage, imaging, urine and stone sampling, surgical decision-making, composition, prognosis, and recurrence surveillance with careful use of the 15-case evidence base.
Read →Avian Gastric Yeast in Passerines: Diagnostic and Treatment Workflow
Macrorhabdus detection is not synonymous with clinical macrorhabdosis. This passerine-focused workflow integrates fresh fecal microscopy, qPCR, imaging, competing diagnoses, treatment, and flock-level decisions.
Read →Sugar Glider Urinary Obstruction: Stabilization, Localization, and Cause
A DVM reference for the sugar glider with stranguria, absent urine, caudal abdominal swelling, or pericloacal disease: confirm whether obstruction is lower, upper, or only apparent; stabilize postrenal complications; and target the primary lesion.
Read →Ammonia Toxicity in Ornamental Fish: Diagnosis and System Correction
A clinical approach to ammonia toxicity in aquarium and pond fish: interpreting TAN with pH and temperature, recognizing test interference, stabilizing fish safely, protecting the biofilter, and separating environmental injury from concurrent infection.
Read →Columnaris Disease in Ornamental Fish: Diagnosis and Treatment
A clinical guide to columnaris in freshwater ornamental fish, including current pathogen taxonomy, lesion sampling, wet-mount and culture interpretation, differential diagnosis, antimicrobial stewardship, and population control.
