Sunulan vaka raporunda 3 yaşlı Simental inek iştahsızlık, süt veriminde azalma, dışkı çıkışı olmaması ve sancı belirtileri şikayeti ile kliniğimize getirildi. Klinik muayenede hipertermi, taşikardi, dehidrasyon ve osküle- perküsyonda ping ve çalkantı sesi belirlendi. Yapılan rektal muayenede mukus içeriği ve duvarı gergin bir yapı palpe edildi. Ultrasonografik değerlendirmede içerisi sıvı ile dolu olan ve ince duvar yapısı görülen sekum tespit edildi. Laboratuvar analizleri sonucunda hematokrit, laktat ve total protein seviyelerinde artış görülürken, hafif düzeyde hipokalemi ve hipokalsemi belirlendi. Yapılan %1.4’lük gluteraldehit solüsyonu testinde pıhtılaşma süresi 6/dk olarak belirlendi ve laparatomide şiddetli sekum dilatasyonu doğrulandı. Gerekli postoperatif bakımlarının yapılması için hospitalize edilen inek postoperatif 3. gün ex oldu. Sonuç olarak, sekum dilatasyonlu vakalarda klinik muayene ve laboratuvar bulgularının paralellik göstermeyebileceği ve hastalığın teşhisinde klinik muayene bulgularına ek olarak ultrasonografi ve gluteraldehit koagulasyon testinin anlamlı olduğu belirlendi.

In this case report, a 3-year-old Simmental cattle was presented to our clinic with complaints of anorexia, decreased milk yield, absence of fecal output, and signs of colic. Clinical examination revealed hyperthermia, tachycardia, dehydration, and a ping and sloshing sound on auscultation and percussion. Rectal examination revealed a mucus-filled, tense structure to palpation. Ultrasound examination revealed a fluid-filled cecal with a thin wall structure. Laboratory analyses revealed elevated hematocrit, lactate, and total protein levels, as well as mild hypokalemia and hypocalcemia. The 1.4% glutaraldehyde solution test showed a clotting time of 6 minutes, and severe cecal dilatation was confirmed at laparotomy. The animal, which was hospitalized for the necessary postoperative care, died on the third postoperative day. In conclusion, it was found that clinical examination and laboratory findings may not always be consistent in cases of cecal dilatation, and that ultrasonography and the glutaraldehyde coagulation test, in addition to clinical examinationfindings, are important in diagnosing the condition.
