Histopathological Grading of Idiopathic Gastroenteritis Diseases in Dogs

Abstract

Idiopathic gastroenteritis is a disease that causes lesions in the stomach and intestines. Twenty dogs of different ages, genders, and breeds showing diarrhea, vomiting, weight loss, and other gastrointestinal findings brought to the Department of Pathology were performed necropsy. For pathological examinations, samples were taken from the cardia, fundus, antrum, and pylorus parts of the stomach and the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, colon, and mesenteric lymph nodes of the intestines. They were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E). It was diagnosed as lymphocytic-plasmacytic gastritis with eosinophilic enteritis (n: 4), eosinophilic enteritis (n: 4), lymphocytic-plasmacytic gastroenteritis (n: 3), eosinophilic gastroenteritis (n: 4) and lymphocytic-plasmacytic enteritis (n: 5) histopathologically. Thus, it was determined that idiopathic gastroenteritis disease was thought to be common in Turkey and current data on incidence of the disease were provided.
