Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Cardiology
  • Pulmonology

Background:

  • Cor pulmonale, or right-sided heart failure, can affect cattle.
  • Understanding its causes and clinical presentation is crucial for herd health management.

Observation:

  • A 4-year-old beef cow presented with clinical signs suggestive of cardiac and respiratory compromise.
  • Physical examination revealed ventral edema and respiratory distress.

Findings:

  • Pathological examination confirmed chronic interstitial pneumonia and cardiac failure consistent with cor pulmonale.
  • Despite thorough investigation, the specific etiology of the interstitial pneumonia remained undetermined.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering cor pulmonale in cattle with respiratory and cardiac signs.
  • Further research is needed to identify the causative agents of interstitial pneumonia in pastured beef cattle.
