説明

A 35-day-old Japanese Black calf with malnutrition caused by the spitting out of the feed because of difficulty in swallowing was examined endoscopically based on tumefaction of the pharynx on palpation and stridulous breathing on auscultation. Endoscopy showed 4 thumb-sized masses constricting the base of the esophagus in the dorsal pharynx. Pharyngitis was suspected, and the calf was treated by the administration of antibiotics and an adrenocorticosteroid agent, and fluid infusion. Gradually, the calf showed increased appetite and improvement in stridulous breathing. Endoscopic reexamination on the 16th day of treatment confirmed the disappearance of the masses, and the calf was discharged on the 19th day after the visit. In this case, early diagnosis of non-purulent pharyngitis through different clinical tests including endoscopy, and the treatment with antibiotics and an adrenocorticosteroid agent facilitated smooth recovery. The results suggest that endoscopy is a valuable method for diagnosing laryngopharyngeal ailments.
