Abstract

The aim of this study was to report a case of vena cava thrombosis with secondary bronchopneumonia in a two-year-old Holsten breed cow from the municipality of Jacutinga, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. Vena cava thrombosis is a disease affecting adult cattle fed on concentrate-based diets. It is characterized by the presence of septic emboli in the bloodstream, which is formed from caudal vena cava thrombi that obliterate the vascular lumen, causing tissue hypoxia. The most common vena cava thrombosis etiology is ruminal acidosis, generating ruminitis and subsequent liver abscessation and pulmonary artery thromboembolism, abomasum ulcers, and polioencephalomalacia. The animal was in the final third of its gestation and it was fed with corn-silage-based feed and a 20% protein content balanced feed when it presented mastitis, walking pain, and coughing. Treatment for mastitis was carried out and 15 days after that, intramuscular enrofloxacin-based antibiotic therapy was performed. The animal died and necropsy and histopathological data indicated to be compatible with cardiocentesis insufficiency, possibly due to vena cava thrombosis with secondary necro-exudative bronchopneumonia.
