Abstract

Hypertrophic osteodystrophy, first reported in 1935, is a bone disease that occurs in young, rapidly growing dogs, affecting the metaphyseal region of long bones. This pathogenesis is uncertain, Weimaraner and Great Dane breed dogs are more common. The affected animals show clinical symptoms ranging from anorexia, pyrexia, lethargy, lameness and weight loss, while lesions are seen in the metaphyseal regions of the long bones, particularly distal radius-ulna and tibia. In the diagnosis of hypertrophic osteodystrophy disease, radiography, tomography and imaging tools such as histopathological examination is performed. In this study, information about clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment of hypertrophic osteodystrophy will be given.

KÖPEKLERDE HİPERTROFİK OSTEODİSTROFİ

Abstract

İlk olarak 1935'te bildirilen hipertrofik osteodistrofi genç, hızlı büyüyen köpeklerde görülen, uzun kemiklerin metafizer bölgesini etkileyen bir kemik hastalığıdır. Patogenezi belirsiz olan bu hastalık, Weimaraner ve Great Dane ırkı köpekler daha sık görülmektedir. Etkilenen hayvanlarda anoreksi, pireksi, letarji, topallık ve kilo kaybına kadar değişen klinik belirtileri gösterirken, lezyonlar özellikle distal radius-ulna ve tibia olmak üzere uzun kemiklerin metafizer bölgelerinde görülür. Hipertrofik osteodistrofi hastalığının tanısında radyografi, tomografi gibi görüntüleme araçlarının yanısıra histopatolojik incelemelerden de yararlanılabilir. Bu çalışmada hipertrofik osteodistrofinin klinik görünümü, tanısı ve sağaltımı hakkında bilgi verilecektir.
