This article reviews diagnosis and management of liver lobe torsion in rabbits. Practitioners should recommend initial diagnostics including radiographs and blood work on rabbits presenting with nonspecific signs of gastrointestinal (GI) stasis to better determine possible etiology and make the best treatment recommendations. If hepatic enzyme elevation is found in a rabbit with GI stasis, abdominal ultrasound is recommended to rule out liver lobe torsion. Prompt diagnosis and liver lobectomy are recommended for best outcome in rabbits with liver lobe torsion.
本文综述了兔肝叶扭转的诊断与处理。对于出现胃肠道淤滞非特异性体征的兔子，从业者应建议进行包括X光片和血液检查在内的初步诊断，以更好地确定可能的病因并做出最佳治疗建议。如果在胃肠道淤滞的兔子中发现肝酶升高，建议进行腹部超声检查以排除肝叶扭转。对于患有肝叶扭转的兔子，建议及时诊断并进行肝叶切除术以获得最佳预后。
