Abstract: As rabbits gain
increasing popularity as house pets, more rabbit owners are seeking basic
preventive veterinary care. Although a knowledge of the unique anatomic and
physiologic characteristics of pet rabbits is essential, annual examination and
review of diet and husbandry are as important as with any other species. Many
disease states can be detected or prevented with routine veterinary care.
Despite all the advances in diagnostic testing in veterinary medicine, there
will never be a substitute for a complete physical examination.

Abstract: A serological
survey of 238 rabbits for antirabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV)
antibodies was made in an industrial rabbitry where no signs of the disease had
been reported for four years. Seroconversion was repeatedly detected and was
due to a calicivirus antigenically related to RHDV but without its
pathogenicity. There was a seroprevalence of 33.3 per cent among young animals
at weaning at 31 days old, 27.6 per cent at five to seven days after weaning,
56.1 per cent at 13 to 14 days after weaning, 90.3 per cent at 19 to 20 days
and 100 per cent at 32 to 33 days after weaning, and all the breeding rabbits
were seropositive. In the last group and in the young at weaning, the anti-RHDV
antibodies were mainly class IgG, but they were IgM and IgA at 13 to 14 days
after weaning. In older fattening rabbits, there was a decrease of IgM and IgA
and an increase of IgG confirmed seroconversion without any specific signs of
rabbit haemorrhagic disease. On the basis of these results, the probable time
of infection of the meat rabbits with this non-pathogenic virus was immediately
after weaning.

Abstract: Rabbit medicine,
and dentistry in particular, is still at an early stage of development. With an
understanding of the underlying oral physiology it is possible to devise an
appropriate treatment regime for most dental problems after the nature and
extent of disease has been assessed. Although many of the dental problems that
are seen in practice cannot be cured, most can be controlled or managed to
allow the affected rabbit to maintain a good quality of life. The continuously
growing nature of the teeth makes recurrence and progression of problems the
norm, so owner education and ongoing monitoring of animals is essential. By
assessing the effects, beneficial or otherwise, of out treatments and
communicating this to others, we will develop our knowledge and skills. Several
treatments that are suggested in this article must be considered as
“experimental” because they have not been assessed in large numbers of animals.
If they work for you, or more importantly, if you find unexpected complications
with a treatment method (as has happened with the use of calcium hydroxide
paste treatment of abscess cavities) then please publicize the fact so that
others can avoid the problem. Until the message on prevention can be reliably
transmitted to owners, we will continue to have oral and dental problems to
manage. After confidence and experience has been gained in anesthetizing
rabbits it is possible to refine one's dental skills to be able to rapidly
perform a thorough examination and basic treatments. Major and complex
treatments require careful consideration because they may add to the animal's
problems, rather than improving the situation. The best method for learning
rabbit dentistry is to routinely perform postmortem examinations following
euthanasia of affected animals, and spend an hour or two practicing handling
the instruments and performing procedures on a cadaver. If you are not
confident in your ability or do not have the best equipment for the job, the
client should be informed and offered the opportunity to be referral to a
“specialist.”

Abstract: Pet rabbits are
frequently treated by veterinary surgeons but most of the literature is based
on diseases encountered in laboratory or commercial rabbits. Many pet rabbits
suffer from dental abnormalities and 40 clinical cases of diseases associated
with teeth problems are reviewed. The clinical and radiological examination of
the oral cavity of conscious and anaesthetised rabbits is described and the
treatment of dental disorders is discussed. Post mortem studies of 20 of the
skulls revealed bone of poor quality. Deformed teeth with little or no enamel
were found during clinical examination and post mortem. The poor quality of the
teeth and bone was not related to malocclusion. Distorted growth of the crowns
led to lacerations to the tongue or inside the cheek, causing anorexia, weight
loss and problems with grooming. Distorted growth of the roots resulted in
penetration of the weakened bones of the maxillae, mandibles and orbits.
Osteomyelitis, abscess formation or infections of the lacrimal duct or nasal
cavity were a result of this disease process. The cause of the defective teeth
and poor bone quality was not determined but preventative measures are
proposed.

six of 26 (23 per cent) apparently healthy rabbits, sampled as part of a health
screen, were seropositive; of the remaining 12 asymptomatic rabbits, sampled because
they lived with seropositive companions, eight (66 per cent) were seropositive.
Fifty-eight of the rabbits with clinical disease showed neurological signs,
including head tilt, seizures, ataxia and swaying; three of them also showed
renal signs and two showed ocular signs, and these five rabbits were all
seropositive. Head tilt was the most common neurological sign in 21 of 23 (91
per cent) of the seropositive cases. All nine rabbits with ocular lesions were
seropositive. In follow-up studies of clinical cases, the rabbits showed
variable responses to treatment with albendazole, fenbendazole, antibiotics or
corticosteroids, and some cases recovered without treatment.

Abstract: Staphylococcus
aureus infections are a major problem in rabbitries. The main
manifestations are subcutaneous abscesses, mastitis, pododermatitis and
septicaemia. Two patterns of infection can be distinguished. In the first type,
clinical signs remain limited to a small number of rabbits in a flock. This
type has little economic importance and is caused by low-virulence S. aureusstrains. In the second type, the disease shows an epidemic spread. Consequences
are poor production results, infertility and death. This leads to chronic
problems and a subsequent decline in production. The latter type is caused by
high-virulence strains. Biotyping, phage typing and RAPD typing contribute to
the characterisation of high-virulence S. aureus strains. Administration of
antibiotics, disinfection of the environment and vaccination are not able to
solve the problems. Therefore, the only effective measure is to cull the entire
flock and to restart with a new rabbit population after thorough disinfection.
Limiting the introduction of new rabbits in existing rabbitries and reducing
contacts between rabbitries to an absolute minimum are currently the only way
to face this most difficult problem.

77 (3): 587-606, ISSN: 0039-6109.
Abstract: Wound healing can
be enhanced and wound infections prevented, often by simple, inexpensive,
readily available means. Preoperative evaluation for impediments to healing,
such as malnutrition, vasoconstriction, hyperglycemia, and steroid use, allows
correction prior to operation. Intraoperatively, the surgeon should concentrate
on surgical technique, appropriate antibiotic use, and prevention of
vasoconstriction (volume, warming). Postoperatively, the focus should be on
prevention of vasoconstriction through pain relief, warming, and adequate
volume resuscitation and on maintaining nutrition and normoglycemia. These
approaches apply as well to chronic wounds. Additionally, maintenance of a
moist environment, correction of local vasospasm with sympathetic blockade or
warming, and stimulation of angiogenesis through aggressive debridement or
hyperbaric oxygen therapy enhance healing of chronic wounds.

Abstract: Besides the well
known allergens, several other risk factors may exist for health in a
laboratory animal unit. The exposure to these factors may be significant in
animal units with poor general or local ventilation systems. Moreover, means to
prevent the distribution of airborne contaminants may be limited in animal
units housing rabbits or other bigger laboratory animals. Airborne contaminants
in conventional laboratory rabbit rooms were sought to evaluate the
occupational exposure of animal care personnel. Concentrations of airborne
dust, bacteria, fungi, ammonia and endotoxins were measured during 2 days in
three phases: before working activities began, during them and afterwards. Both
stationary and some personal samples were taken. All of the contaminants sought
were found in the rabbit room air. When compared to reported levels in farm
animal production areas, the concentrations measured were generally low.
However, moderate or high levels of airborne bacteria and fungi were found
occasionally during work routines. Airborne contaminants should be considered
as a potential occupational health risk for persons working with laboratory
animals.

Abstract: An enzootic of
listeriosis in a rabbitry is reported. Listeria monocytogenes serotype 1/2a was
isolated from the organs of a doe, which had died of septic metritits. From
aborted fetuses of two other does Listeria monocytogenes serotype 1/2b and 4b
were cultured, respectively. In feed samples of the rabbitry Listeria
monocytogenes strains of the serotypes 1/2b and 4b besides the apathogenic
Listeria species Listeria seeligeri and Listeria innocua were detected.
Serological studies with agglutination test and complement fixation test on
double serum samples of does, which had aborted, pointed to listeric infections
as the cause of abortion. A doe, which had aborted and failed to become
pregnant again, showed serosal adhesions of both uterine tubes and a sterile
pyometra. Therefore, previous infection of the uterus by Listeria monocytogenesshould be considered as a cause of infertility.

Abstract: This paper deals
with 16 cases presented from April to December 2001 and diagnosed clinically as
rabbit syphilis, because they showed distinct lesions around the nose and/or
mouth, responded to chemotherapy, and the “Rapid Plasma Reagin” test was
positive. Twelve cases exhibited initial symptoms and four were relapses.
Lesions around the genitalia and/or anus as well as the nose and/or mouth were
seen in 8 cases, and 6 cases indicated sneezing. Fifteen cases were
successfully treated with oral administration of chloramphenicol, and one was
treated with long-acting penicillin by intramuscular injection. The mean age of
onset was 8.8 months. As none of these cases had any mating history, the
disease was likely to be maternally transmitted.

diagnosis, disease transmission, vertical, skin pathology, skin diseases,

Abstract: Since the RPR
(rapid plasma regain) test was found to be useful for the diagnosis of rabbit
syphilis, serological survey by this test has been carried out in Japanese
companion rabbits. A hundred virgin household rabbits kept alone and without
signs and history of syphilis were examined by RPR test from April 2001 to
March 2002, in Tokyo, Japan. The test was positive in 35 cases and negative in
65 cases. RPR negative rabbits should be selected for breeding to prevent the
spread of rabbit syphilis in companion rabbits in Japan.
