Chronic Pharyngitis01:23

Chronic Pharyngitis

13.0K
Chronic pharyngitis refers to persistent inflammation of the pharyngial mucosa.
Etiology
It often arises from persistent viral or bacterial infections affecting sinuses and tonsils.
Additional contributing factors include inadequate dental hygiene, mouth breathing, recurring tonsillitis, allergic rhinitis, laryngopharyngeal reflux, and exposure to smoke, chemicals, and other environmental pollutants. Allergic reactions to pollen, mold, and pet dander, chronic cough, excessive voice usage,...

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease II: Clinical Features and Management

1.0K
Gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, is a persistent medical condition that affects many individuals worldwide. Its clinical manifestations can vary greatly, making diagnosis and management challenging for healthcare professionals. The following is a comprehensive overview of the clinical manifestations, assessment, and management strategies for GERD.
Clinical Manifestations
GERD presents itself in a multitude of ways, with symptoms varying from person to person. The hallmark symptoms are...

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology

1.4K
Gastritis is marked by disruption of the mucosal barrier that usually protects the stomach tissue from digestive juices and manifests in acute and chronic forms.
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...

Esophageal Strictures-II: Clinical Features and Management

734
Patients with esophageal strictures often experience a range of symptoms. Initially, they may have difficulty swallowing solid foods, which can progress to include liquids. Additional symptoms may involve chest pain or discomfort, regurgitating food and fluids, heartburn, unintentional weight loss, coughing or choking during meals, and hoarseness.
Healthcare providers should gather a comprehensive medical history and conduct a physical examination for diagnosis. If esophageal stricture is...

Barrett Esophagus-II: Clinical Manifestations and Management

1.2K
Individuals with Barrett's esophagus are often asymptomatic, but they may experience symptoms commonly associated with GERD, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation. Additional symptoms can include difficulty swallowing, chest pain, unintentional weight loss, blood in the stool (which may appear black, tarry, or bloody), and episodes of vomiting.
To diagnose Barrett's esophagus, healthcare providers often recommend an endoscopy for those showing symptoms of acid reflux. The procedure...

Summary

Feline chronic gingivostomatitis (FCG) often occurs with esophagitis in cats. Managing esophagitis is crucial as it may worsen FCG symptoms, impacting feline oral health.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Comparative Pathology
  • Feline Health

Background:

  • Feline chronic gingivostomatitis (FCG) is a severe oral condition in cats.
  • The underlying pathophysiology and full impact of FCG remain poorly understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the concurrent occurrence of esophagitis with FCG.
  • To determine if FCG treatment influences esophagitis development.
  • To assess if esophagitis exacerbates FCG clinical signs.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective study involving 58 cats with FCG and 12 healthy controls.
  • Physical, oral, and endoscopic examinations were conducted.
  • Salivary and esophageal pH measurements and biopsies were obtained.

Main Results:

  • A significant majority of cats with FCG presented with esophagitis, particularly in proximal and distal regions.
  • No significant differences in salivary or esophageal pH were observed between groups.
  • No concurrent gastrointestinal disease signs were noted.

Conclusions:

  • FCG frequently coexists with esophagitis in feline patients.
  • Esophagitis management is recommended in FCG cases to prevent symptom aggravation.
