pericardiocentesis; groove with pericardial effusion.
prognosis is guarded and What is the likely diagnosis?
may include
chemotherapy, a. Pulmonary adenocarcinoma
pericardiectomy, or rarely b. Idiopathic pericardial
auriculectomy. hemorrhage
Chemodectoma arises c. Chemodectoma

and heart base; lymphoma e. Lymphoma
is rare in the heart of dogs
and is more commonly
metastatic than a single
mass. Idiopathic
pericardial hemorrhage is
incorrect because of the
clear evidence of a mass

,b. Eccentric hypertrophy Mitral regurgitation in dogs eventually results in which

Mitral regurgitation is the concentric hypertrophy of the left ventricle

valve. The excess blood d. Concentric hypertrophy of the left atrium and
flow causes volume eccentric hypertrophy of the left ventricle
overload of the left atrium
leading to eccentric
hypertrophy or dilation of
the chamber. The excess
blood volume will then
return to the left ventricle
during the next diastole,
resulting in dilation and
eccentric hypertrophy of
the left ventricle as well.
Concentric hypertrophy
occurs in cardiac
chambers when they are
pressure overload, such as
in the case of pulmonic
stenosis or aortic stenosis

taurine deficiency

Atracurium is a non-

Other neuromuscular c. Atracurium
blockers include d. Edrophonium
pancuronium, d- e. Neostigmine
tubocurarine, and
succinylcholine.
Succinylcholine is a
depolirizing
neuromuscular blocker.
Fentanyl is an opioid.
Naloxone is an opioid
antagonist.
Endrophonium and
neostigmine are
cholinesterase
inhibitors used to
reverse neuromuscular
blockers.

Owners should also be

subaortic stenosis is
known to carry a high risk
of developing infective
endocarditis (i.e. prior to

Balloon dilation by
catheterization can be
attempted in some
patients, but the results
are often not as rewarding
as for pulmonic stenosis.
