Detection of extended spectrum beta-lactamases in escherichia coli from cage birds
The objective of this research study was to determine the prevalence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) producing Escherichia coli, in various pet bird s in Hatay, Turkey. The 4 bacterial isolates obtained displayed different frequencies of antimicrobial susceptibility amongst 18 antibiotics. The four E. coli isolates were classified as group B1 based on phylogenetic analysis. (Source: Journal of Exotic Pet Medicine)

Adrenalectomy and nephrectomy in a rabbit (oryctolagus cuniculus) with adrenocortical carcinoma and renal and ureteral transitional cell carcinoma
A 9-year-old neutered male rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) previously diagnosed with right nephromegaly was presented with increased sexual behavior associated with hypertestosteronemia. Left adrenomegaly and an obstructive mass in the right renal pelvis and proximal ureter leading to severe hydronephrosis of the right kidney were diagnosed by abdominal ultrasound. A left adrenalectomy and right nephrectomy were performed and samples were submitted for histopathology, confirming the diagnosis of adrenocortical carcinoma and a transitional cell carcinoma of the ureter and renal pelvis.

Literature Review
Current Therapy in Exotic Pet Practice is a newly published clinical medicine textbook, which was designed to serve as a companion text for the Manual of Exotic Pet Practice (Elsevier, 2008), both of which were edited by Drs. Mark Mitchell and Thomas Tully. This current text updates clinically relevant information presented in the former book, thus expanding upon the descriptions of each major body system and associated diseases. The target audience for Current Therapy in Exotic Pet Practice includes veterinarians and veterinary staff who treat exotic pets, as well as veterinary students wanting to learn more about the dia...

JEPM October 2016 – Abstracts
This prospective study, performed from 2002 to 2004, was designed to estimate the risk of death related to anesthesia and/or sedation in small animal patients in the United Kingdom (UK) and to describe commonly observed characteristics of such fatalities. Questionnaires were sent to participating veterinary centers (general practices and veterinary institutions) and included questions on species commonly treated, practice standards, and percentage case referrals. The following details were recorded for all companion animals that were sedated or anesthetized: the procedure date, the species, whether the animal was sedated o...

Liquid nitrogen cryosurgery for a chromatophoroma in a captive largemouth bass (micropterus salmoides)
Chromatophoromas are a common, pigmented malignant tumor that originates from dermochromatophores normally found in the skin of amphibians, reptiles, and fish. Chromatophoromas are typically locally aggressive and can appear as unsightly exudative masses. Effective treatment options in fish are limited mostly to surgical excision. An alternative approach to traditional surgical excision is liquid nitrogen cryosurgery. An adult (3.63 kilograms) largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), housed in a mixed teleost species tank presented with a history of inappetence of 14 days duration and two visible cutaneous skin lesions. (S...
