Grade I - Early Asymptomatic Disease
Loss of hair (which does not usually grow back) on the palmar or plantar aspect of the hocks or feet. (B608.21.w21, B609.2.w2, B615.6.w6)
Rabbits do not have protective footpads so once the fur is lost on the weight bearing surface of the foot, the skin becomes susceptible to ulceration and ischaemic necrosis. (J213.7.w1)
Grade II - Mild disease
Erythema and swelling with the overlying skin remaining intact. (B602.19.w19, B609.2.w2, B615.6.w6, J213.4.w4)
If the disease is recognised at this stage and the underlying cause is treated then progression to ulceration can be prevented. (B600.9.w9)
Grade III - Moderate disease
Rounded, focal areas of ulceration and scab formation. (B601.11.w11, B602.19.w19, B604.5.w5, B608.21.w21, B609.2.w2, J213.4.w4)
Occasionally the medial plantar artery or vein (which run just under the skin) becomes eroded and the resulting haemorrhage can be quite alarming for owners. (B600.9.w9)
Grade IV - Severe disease
Abscess (B602.19.w19, B604.5.w5, B606.10.w10, B608.21.w21, B609.2.w2)
see Abscessation for further information.
Inflammation of the tendons or deeper tissues. (B608.21.w21, B609.2.w2)
The surrounding fur may become matted and adhere to the lesion, increasing both the pressure on the skin and the bacterial contamination. (B600.9.w9)
Grade V - Severe and often irreversible disease
Osteomyelitis (B601.11.w11, B602.19.w19, B606.10.w10, B608.21.w21, B609.2.w2)
Synovitis and tendonitis that leads to displacement of the superficial digital flexor tendon and an abnormal gait and stance (dropped hock). (B600.9.w9, B609.2.w2, J213.7.w1)作者: wmlynlyn 時間: 2013-5-5 09:25:54 PM
