A total of five views are submitted for interpretation. Thorax. The cardiac silhouette is of normal size with a vertebral heart score measurement of approximately Individual cardiac chamber enlargement is not identified. Pulmonary lobar vessels are normal to small in dimensions. A mild bronchial pattern is present within the pulmonary parenchyma. Soft tissue opaque pulmonary nodules, thoracic lymph node enlargement and fluid within the pleural cavity are not identified. There is asymmetry to the luminal diameter of the trachea. Esophageal dilation is not identified. Abdomen. Abdominal serosal margin detail is normal. The urinary bladder is moderately distended, is of uniform opacity with smooth margins. The prostate gland is enlarged with cranial extension beyond the pelvic inlet. The gastrointestinal tract is normal. Mixed soft tissue opaque material is present within the gastric lumen, consistent with food ingesta. The liver margins are rounded, however the overall size of the liver is normal. The spleen is obscured. Evaluation of the kidneys is limited by overlying intestinal structures.
5 Musculoskeletal. Intervertebral disc space narrowing with endplate sclerosis and ventral spondylosis deformans is present at multiple sites along the thoracic and lumbar vertebral column including T12-13 and L1-2. Bone production is present at the margins of the stifles. The stifles are at the edge of the imaging field-of-view. RADIOGRAPHIC CONCLUSIONS Prostatomegaly. Benign prostatic hyperplasia could be considered if the patient is intact, recently castrated or possibly has a retained testicle. Concurrent or other primary prostatic disease including prostatitis and neoplasia is not excluded. Urinary bladder distention could be related to delayed voiding. Other causes of urinary bladder distention including neuromuscular disease, atonic bladder and lower urinary tract obstruction is not excluded with clinical correlation warranted. Possible hepatopathy. Clinical correlation is warranted. The bronchial pattern is likely an age-related change. Lower airway disease remains a consideration. Left congestive heart failure is not identified. Degenerative changes of the thoracic and lumbar vertebral column. Degenerative joint disease of the stifles. If clinically warranted, abdominal ultrasound could be performed. Abdominal ultrasound will be of more diagnostic value if performed after fasting procedure.

6 Continuing medical boarding care for multi-service rescue evaluations - Jackson has completed his medical/derm/ophtho assessment. He is bright, alert and eating well. OK to be returned to pdvm care while a foster home is arranged. Physical Examination (7:39 am G. P. Oswald, DVM, Dip ACVIM (Int Med)/GPO) Weight: kg, lb, 0.41 m2 Temp: 100.7F, HR: 128/bpm, Resp: 30/min. Medical Treatment Plan (7:39 am G. P. Oswald, DVM, Dip ACVIM (Int Med)/GPO) Inhospital patient treatment outline : - PO doxycycline 50mg dose BID - OU Dexamethasone 1% Ophtho Soln - 1 ggt TID - topical Silver-sulfadiazine applied to thermal burn wounds BID; begin to debride eschar PRN. Assessment (9:25 am G. P. Oswald, DVM, Dip ACVIM (Int Med)/GPO) 1. Degenerative corneal disease, both eyes. 2. Dermatology issues : -> skin allergies, likely combination of inhalant allergy (atopy) and flea allergy dermatitis; recieved monthly flea treatment 05/ > dermal cyst over dorsal neck region - no treatment indicated at this time; cyst may rupture in future requiring local treatment. -> focal thermal burns over lateral thorax (left) and axillary region (right); forming well-defined mature eschar that will require serial debridement over time but expect these areas will heal with ongoing wound care. 3. Heart murmur; likely chronic degenerative valve disorder (mitral); stage B1; no appreciable heart enlargement on current chest xray so no further testing or therapy is necessary at this time; recommend monitor with serial xray every 6-12 months and followup with ECHO exam and initiate treatment if heart enlargement develops in future. 4. Intermittent dry hacking cough; associated with pulling on leash and excitement; suspect related to dynamic airway collapse of small breed dogs, however, considering his recent history he may have infectious "kennel cough". 5. Dental & peridontal disease; multiple tooth extractions 05/2017. Medical Treatment Plan (9:32 am G. P. Oswald, DVM, Dip ACVIM (Int Med)/GPO) Medical plan at time of hospital release : - Doxycycline antibiotic 50mg dose by mouth twice daily for minimum 2 weeks; antibiotic effect will help with mild cough (if bacterial cause/ "kennel cough") and skin lesions; immunomodulating effect may help reduce corneal inflammation. - Sliver-sulfadiazine topical cream - apply to affected skin lesions on left body wall and right axillary region twice daily; reduces bacterial growth in healing skin wounds. - Dexamethasone Ophtho Solution - apply 1 drop to each eye every 8-12 hours for next 3-4 weeks. - Continue monthly heartworm and flea preventative treatment. - Continue atopy treatment of your choice (Apoquel, Cytopoint, etc...) as needed based on whether his allergy is seasonal vs. non-seasonal and whether clinical signs are mild or intense. Followup Recommendations (9:35 am G. P. Oswald, DVM, Dip ACVIM (Int Med)/GPO) - He will require wound treatment 2-3 times weekly once the eschar begins to break down and requires serial debridement.
7 - He should have ophthalmology recheck examination in 3-4 weeks. - He should have recheck chest xray in 6 months. If he begins to cough regularly, exhibits exercise intolerance or develops labored breathing effort then he should be re-evaluated sooner. - He should have skin allergy rechecks as necessary depending on clinical signs. Meticulous flea control is necessary in his case. Pharmacy (11:20 am G. P. Oswald, DVM, Dip ACVIM (Int Med)/GPO) Doxycycline 100mg tab #25 Give 1/2 tablet(s) by mouth twice daily. ANTIBIOTIC Silver-sulfadiazine 25gm #1 Apply thin layer topically directly to affected skin lesions twice daily. Written Communications (11:29 am G. P.

Dental & peridontal disease; multiple tooth extractions 05/2017.
8 Activity / Exercise: No restrictions on routine home activity. Diet: Continue feeding Jackson a standard canine adult diet. Current Medication Schedule: - Doxycycline antibiotic 50mg dose by mouth twice daily for 3 weeks; antibiotic effect will help with mild cough (if bacterial cause/ "kennel cough") and skin lesions; immunomodulating effect may help reduce corneal inflammation. - Dexamethasone 1% Ophtho Solution - apply 1 drop to each eye every 8-12 hours for next 3-4 weeks. - Continue monthly heartworm and flea preventative treatment. - Continue atopy treatment of your choice (Apoquel, Cytopoint, etc...) as needed based on whether his allergy is seasonal vs. non-seasonal and whether clinical signs are mild or intense. Thermal Wound Sites: Apply Sliver-sulfadiazine topical cream directly to and around the affected skin lesions (eschar) on left body wall and right axillary region twice daily; this will reduce bacterial growth in healing skin wounds. Keep the wounds clean and dry. You can gently wipe away any loose eschar fragments and debris from the wounds as needed. Your veterinarian will need to manage the wounds every few days and gradually trim away the dead eschar tissue and allow the healthy granulation tissue underneath to heal over time. Bath: You may bathe "Jackson" at any time. Followup Instructions: He should have ophthalmology recheck examination in 3-4 weeks to determine further treatment recommendations. He should have recheck chest xray in 6 months. If he begins to cough regularly, exhibits exercise intolerance or develops labored breathing effort then he should be re-evaluated sooner. He should have skin allergy rechecks as necessary depending on clinical signs. Meticulous flea control is necessary in his case. Please call if you have questions or problems.
