About This Book

Comprehensive clinical manual detailing disorders of the nervous, genitourinary, ocular, and integumentary systems in domestic animals. It begins with principles of neural control and general symptomatology, classifying motor, sensory, and psychic disturbances and methods for localizing lesions. The text describes specific conditions such as seizures, paralysis, meningitis, intracranial hemorrhage, tumors, and toxicoses, and outlines diagnostic signs and pathological causes. Later sections address urine analysis and renal disease, urinary tract inflammation and calculi, and diseases of the eye, skin, and constitutional systems, combining pathological description with clinical signs, differential diagnosis, and practical guidance for examination and interpretation.

TUMORS OF THE VAGINA.

The vagina is the seat of different forms of neoplasms in the various domestic animals. Thus cystoma, lipoma, adenoma, fibroma, fibro-myoma, sarcoma and epithelioma have been noted. They are essentially surgical and to be dealt with as such. They are mainly important in this connection as inducing a leucorrhœa, which in the absence of careful examination might be mistaken for that of uterine or vaginal infective inflammation.
