We will discuss the pros and cons of hepatic fine needle aspirates and then why, when and how, we should take liver biopsies, and understand how to interpret the results. We will finish by looking at therapeutic options of liver disease, including the anti-oxidants, reviewing the evidence for their efficacy in small animal patients.What you’ll learn:Review of the approach to patients with liver diseaseAssessment of laboratory findings; understanding biochemistry and evaluating liver functionUnderstanding how and when imaging the liver is usefulKnowing when should we take liver biopsies and how to interpret the resultsReview of therapy; when to use treatment such as antioxidants and the evidence of their effectiveness Session 2: Liver disease: what’s gone wrong and how can I help fix it?The second session will review the major causes of liver disease, which we will breakdown according to the WSAVA guidelines. We will start by reviewing parenchymal diseases, again using a case based approach focusing on chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and feline hepatic lipidosis. We’ll then move onto looking at the vascular disorders covering porto-systemic shunts, arteriovenous fistulas and portal vein hypoplasia, before covering diagnosis and management of the common hepatic tumours. We will finish but evaluating the consequences of liver disease, but discussing hepatic encephalopathy, portal hypotension and coagulopathies. This lecture will also touch on newer interventional techniques such as coil embolization for intra-hepatic proto-systemic shunts and intra-arterial chemotherapy for unresectable hepatic tumours.What you’ll learn:Review of hepatic parenchyma diseases, including canine chronic hepatitis and feline hepatic lipidosisHepatic vascular diseases – acquired and congenital porto-systemic shunts, A-V fistulas and portal vein hypoplasiaHepatic neoplasia review of common tumours and management optionsUnderstanding the consequences of hepatic disease: including coagulopathies, portal hypertension and hepatic encephalopathy Session 3: Sick as parrot, yellow as a canary: how to approach hepatobiliary and pancreatic diseaseThe last of the lectures will cover hepatobiliary and pancreatic disease. We will start by reviewing the biliary tract and looking at diseases of the gallbladder and bile duct, discussing the differences between cats and dogs, and reviewing what is meant by feline triaditis, using case examples to illustrate both a diagnostic and treatment approach. We’ll then look in detail at the causes of pancreatitis and discuss how we might be able to diagnose it with certainty! We’ll evaluate the treatment options and the evidence behind our recommendations. We’ll finish by taking a look at exocrine pancreatitis insufficiency and pancreatic neoplasia, reviewing the aetiology, diagnosis and treatment options.What you’ll learn:Review of hepatobiliary disease, including cholangitis and mucocoelesUnderstanding what is mean by feline triaditis and how to treat itKnowing the causes, diagnosis and treatment options for pancreatitisReview of the aetiology, diagnosis and treatment of exocrine pancreatitis insufficiencyPancreatic masses causes, consequences and treatment optionsSalepage: https://cpd-solutions.com/store/product/ms136-liver-and-pancreatic-disease-mini-series/Archive: https://archive.ph/wip/CPUQiPurchase CPD – MS136 – Liver and Pancreatic Disease Mini-Series courses at here with PRICE $479 $114
