Mast cell tumors (MCTs) are the most common skin tumors in dogs. Laboratory diagnosis of MCTs has been established by many techniques.The dyes generally used for tissue staining, including MCTs, are synthetic dyes, however, the global interest in using eco-friendly natural dye has become a significant matter. We focused on the butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea L.) which is locally available. Limited studies are known about their efficacy as a tissue stain. The aim of this study was to investigate the staining ability of butterfly pea flower extract in cytological canine MCTs. The dried petals were ground into powder and dissolved …

A hyperdynamic circulatory state is a common consequence of portal vein hypertension. Interestingly, this case report demonstrates acute canine leptospirosis manifesting with abdominal effusion, which it is focused ona hyperdynamic circulatory state, caused by portal hypertension. Severe acute kidney injury caused by leptospirosis in this case was hypothesized to be aggravated by renal hypoperfusion. This condition was noticed to occur in a similar way to hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) in humans. Briefly, a dog with leptospirosis manifesting with abdominal effusion which was diagnosed to be the consequence of hyperdynamic circulatory state caused by hepatopathy and severe acute kidney injury. Peritoneal dialysis …

There was early evidence of CTVT more than 10,000 years ago and this disease has been reported in at least 90 countries across the continents of the world, especially in third world countries, where there are high numbers of stray dogs. CTVT natural infection occurs only in …
