Pırlak Bir Kuzuda Otosefali ile Birlikte Gözlenen Siklopiya Olgusu

Abstract

Bu raporda Pırlak ırkı bir dişi kuzuda ruminantlarda daha önceden rapor edilmeyen otosefali ile beraber gözlenen siklopi olgusu sunuldu. İki yaşında olan nullipar Pırlak ırkı bir koyun güç doğum sebebiyle Afyon Kocatepe Üniversitesi, Veteriner Fakültesi kliniklerine getirildi. Koyuna sezaryen operasyonu uygulandı ve ölü bir dişi kuzu uterustan çıkartıldı. Plasental bölgelerde plasentomlar sayıca az ve çapları küçük olarak belirlendi. Kuzuya yapılan morfolojik ve makroskobik muayenelerde hayvanın baş bölgesinde özellikle siklopi ve otosefali olmak üzere bazı anomalilerin olduğu belirlenirken, diğer vücut bölümlerinde herhangi bir anomaliye rastlanılmadı. Bunu yanı sıra tam bir ağız boşluğunun olmadığı, maksillar ve mandibular kemiklerin, dişlerin (dysgnathia), burunun (arhinia) ve dilin oluşmadığı (aglossia) gözlendi. Ayrıca, farinkse, özofagusa ve trakeyaya (microstomia) açılan ve tek göz açıklığının alt kısmında küçük bir delik belirlendi. Bu küçük deliğin her iki tarafında sağ ve sol kulak kepçelerinin birbirine yapışık olduğu gözlendi (synotia). Nekropside beynin anormal yapıda, çok küçük ve ödematöz olduğu, beyin loblarının ve giruslarının bulunmadığı tespit edildi. Torasik, abdominal ve pelvik boşlukların muayenesinde bir anormalliğe rastlanmadı.

A Cyclopia Case with Otocephaly in a Pirlak Lamb

Abstract

In this report, a case of cyclopia with otocephaly in a Pirlak lamb was presented which has not been reported previosly in ruminants. A two years old-nulliparous Pirlak ewe was referred to the clinics of Afyon Kocatepe University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine with the complaint of dystocia. Cesarean section was performed and a dead female lamb was extracted out from the uterus. The number and size of placentomes were reduced at the placental sites. Morphologic and macroscopic examination of the lamb demonstrated that there were some congenital anomalies, especially an eye (cyclopia) and otocephaly, at the head of lamb, however no other anomalies were defined at the other parts of body. On the other hand there were no whole mouth space, maxillar and mandibular bones, teeth (dysgnathia), no nose (arhinia) and tongue (aglossia). Nevertheless, there was a small hole at the bottom of the one eye opening to pharynx, oesophagus and trachea (microstomia). The left and right auricles were adherent together on the both sides of the small hole (synotia). At necropsy, the brain was not normal, rather small and edematous, having any brain lobes and gyrus. Examination of thoracic, abdominal and pelvic spaces revealed no abnormality.
