The etiology of primary liver cirrhosis is rare and secondary. Liver cirrhosis is related to copper, arsenic, phosphorus, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, bitumen, gossypol and aflatoxin poisoning. Congestive heart failure, cardiac filariasis, cardiac valvular disease, portal vein embolism, bile duct disease and infectious hepatitis are also causes of liver cirrhosis. two。 The symptom has a longer course of disease.

Canine liver cirrhosis is a kind of canine disease caused by liver parenchyma cell proliferation, degeneration, necrosis and regeneration, resulting in liver deformation, hardening and loss of normal physiological function.

1. The etiology of primary liver cirrhosis is rare and secondary. Liver cirrhosis is related to copper, arsenic, phosphorus, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, bitumen, gossypol and aflatoxin poisoning. Congestive heart failure, cardiac filariasis, cardiac valvular disease, portal vein embolism, bile duct disease and infectious hepatitis are also causes of liver cirrhosis.

two。 The long course of symptoms showed chronic development. Chronic indigestion, constipation and diarrhea occur alternately at the beginning of the disease. Sometimes vomiting out of yellow liquid, visible mucous membrane slightly yellow-stained, tongue yellow-white. Palpation: the liver was enlarged and painful, and the sick dogs gradually lost weight, depressed spirit and hairy hair; when complicated with ascites, the abdominal circumference was enlarged and the hands felt fluctuating; in the later stage, the liver shrank and hardened, and most of the sick dogs died of liver coma.

3. The early diagnosis of clinical symptoms is not obvious, the diagnosis is very difficult. Liver function test must be done if liver cirrhosis is suspected. Plasma globulin increased in the early stage, albumin decreased in the late stage, and a large amount of transparent yellow fluid was discharged from the abdominal cavity, including epithelial cells, red blood cells and white blood cells.

4. Treatment according to the pathogenesis of sick dogs, the principle of treatment is to strengthen the heart and protect the liver, symptomatic treatment.

(1) Feed should be mixed with vegetables that are low in protein, high in carbohydrates and high in vitamins, and do not eat fatty foods.

(2) promote hepatocyte regeneration and take Gantaile 50 mg, 3 times a day.

(3) in order to adjust metabolic disorders in dogs, slow intravenous drip of 5% glucose 50 mg 100 ml to strengthen Xinbaogan injection 20 mg, twice a day, intramuscular injection of 0.2 mg vitamin B12, once every other day, and intramuscular injection of vitamin C 50 mg, 3 times a day.

(4) add 1 gram of antifat drug acetylcholine to the food every day.

This method is effective in the treatment of early canine liver cirrhosis.
