Objectives for NS 2: You should be able to define, describe pathogenesis, list lesions and know how to diagnose the following conditions: • Cytotoxic, osmotic and vasogenic brain edema) • Thiamine-responsive polioencephalomalacia of ruminants • Thiamine deficiency in carnivores • Lead poisoning • Salt poisoning • Toxin-induced vasogenic brain edema
Response to injury - Brain edema Brain swelling (cerebral edema) Increased intracranial pressure E. Simko WCVM
Response to injury - Brain edema Brain swelling (edema) Blood perfusion pressure Intracranial pressure Ischemic necrosis E. Simko WCVM
Response to injury - Brain edema Brain edema • Cytotoxic (intracellular) • Extra cellular edema • Osmotic • Vasogenic E. Simko WCVM
Response to injury - Brain edema Diagnosis: • Gross: • cerebellar coning (herniation) • cerebral herniation • flattened gyri • Microscopically • neuronal necrosis • edema is not evident in most cases E. Simko WCVM
Polioencephalomalacia (PEM) • Thiamine-responsive PEM of ruminants • Lead poisoning in ruminants • Salt poisoning in pigs & occ. in rumin. • Hypoxia
Response to injury - Brain edema Cytotoxic edema (cellular degeneration) Thiamine-responsive polioencephalomalacia in ruminants Etiology • Disturbance of thiamine production/absorption • concentrate ruminal pH change in flora • Bacterial thiaminase • [sulfur, sulfates, sulfides] in diet or water E. Simko WCVM
Cytotoxic edema - Thiamine deficiency Pathogenesis • Thiamine interferes with glucose metabolism and Krebs cycle in CNS • ATP production • Na/K transport is impaired • Intacellular H2O (hydropic degeneration) • Cellular swelling (Cytototoxic edema) • Energy exhaustion • Intacranial pressure & blood perfusion • Ischemic necrosis E. Simko WCVM
Cytotoxic edema - Thiamine deficiency Lesions • Brain swelling • (flattened gyri, cerebellar coning) • Yellow cortical discoloration • (autofluorescence under UV light) • Cortical liquefaction and cavitation Histology Laminar cortical necrosis E. Simko WCVM
Cytotoxic edema - Thiamine deficiency Diagnosis • History • Response to thiamine • Gross and histologic lesions • Rule out the other causes of PEM E. Simko WCVM
Cytotoxic edema - Thiamine deficiency Dietary thiamine deficiency in carnivores • Dog, cat, mink (Human – Wernicke’s encephalopathy) • Depend on exogenous source of vitamin • Pathogenesis: diet with thiaminase, sulfur preservatives or exposed to high temperature Lesions: Symmetrical necrosis of thalamic and mid-brain nuclei E. Simko WCVM
Brain edema Lead poisoning Lesions: Source: Old batteries and paint Polioencephalomalacia similar to thiamine resp. Cattle Lead shotgun pellets PNS degeneration (Esophageal/crop dilation and impaction) Waterfowl E. Simko WCVM
Direct endothelial injury vasogenic edema • Damaged metabolism cellular swelling • Energy exhaustion • Increased intracranial pressure • Failure of blood perfusion • Ischemic necrosis Brain edema - Lead poisoning Pathogenesis in cattle E. Simko WCVM
Brain edema - Lead poisoning Diagnosis • Gross and histologic lesions • Lead particles in the rumen • Lead level in liver and kidney E. Simko WCVM
