| Abstract | Jazavčari su svakim danom sve popularnija pasmina pasa, ne samo među
lovcima, nego i kao psi za društvo. Dolaze u različitim pasminskim varijatetima i
tipovima (standard, kunićar i patuljasti), dok su posebna skupina brak jazavčari.
Zbog svoje specifične građe tijela skloni su bolestima kralježnice te drugim
degenerativnim bolestima zbog svoje dugovječnosti.
U ovome retrospektivnom istraživanju unazad 5 godina promatrani su psi
pasmina jazavčar, pacijenti Zavoda za rendgenologiju, ultrazvučnu dijagnostiku i
fizikalnu terapiju Veterinarskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Zabilježeno je 260
slučajeva, od kojih je 199 (77%) pasa s nalazom promjena i 61 pas (23%) s negativnim
rendgenološkim nalazom. Brojčani odnos mužjaka i ženki u ispitivanju je podjednak.
Prosječna dob pasa s pozitivnim rendgenološkim nalazom je 7,66 godina, dok je kod
pasa bez promjena 4,93 godina. Uočen je značajan broj promjena na lokomotornom,
kardiovaskularnom i probavnom sustavu. Prema pojavnosti najučestalije su
dijagnoze deformirajuće spondiloze torakalnog i lumbalnog dijela kralježnice,
sakralizacija i kalcinoza međukralježničnih diskova. Etiološkom podjelom, najviše
promjena svrstano je u skupinu degenerativnih promjena, dok su skupine bolesti
kongenitalne ili razvojne prirode sporadično zastupljene. Ograničenje u istraživanju
predstavlja korištenje isključivo rendgenske dijagnostike, koja često nije dovoljna za
definitivnu dijagnozu što ostavlja mnogo slučajeva multikauzalne ili nepoznate
etiologije. Rezultati dobiveni ovim istraživanjem u skladu su s dosada poznatim
podacima iz literature i pokazuju kako populacija pretraživanih jazavčara ne odstupa
od dosada pretraživanih skupina jazavčara. |
| Abstract (english) | Occurrence and Etiology of Radiological Findings in Dachshunds
Dachshunds are becoming a more popular dog breed every day, not only
between hunters, but also as companion dogs. They come in different breed varieties
and types (standard, rabbit and mini), while a special group are the Alpine
Dachsbracke. Because of their specific body structure, they are prone to spine
diseases and other degenerative diseases due to their longevity.
In this retrospective study, dachshund dogs, patients of the Department of
Radiology, Ultrasound Diagnostics and Physical Therapy, Faculty of Veterinary
Medicine, University of Zagreb, were observed over the past 5 years. 260 cases were
recorded, of which 199 (77%) were dogs with changes and 61 dogs (23%) with
negative X-ray findings. The number of males and females in the test is equal. The
average age of dogs with a positive X-ray finding is 7.66 years, while the average age
of dogs without changes is 4.93 years. A significant number of changes in the
locomotor, cardiovascular and digestive systems were observed. According to the
incidence, the most frequent diagnoses are deforming spondylosis of the thoracic and
lumbar spine, sacralization and calcinosis of the intervertebral discs. According to the
etiological division, most of the changes are classified into the group of degenerative
changes, while groups of diseases of a congenital or developmental nature are
sporadically represented. A limitation in the research is the use X-ray, which is often
not sufficient for a definitive diagnosis, which leaves many cases with multicausal or
unknown etiology. The results of this research are in accordance with the previously
known data from the literature and show that the population of searched
dachshunds does not deviate from the previously searched groups of dachshunds. |
