A 12-day-old Brown Kiwi (Apteryx mantelli) was presented with anorexia, torticollis, head-tilt, and coelomic distension. Radiographs showed an ill-defined, fat-opaque, coelomic mass displacing viscera craniodorsally. Curvilinear mineral opacities were superimposed over the ventral aspect of the mass. Computed tomography demonstrated the presence of mineral within the periphery of a fat attenuating mass consistent with a retained yolk sac. A deutectomy (yolk sac excision) was performed. Histopathology of the excised tissue confirmed the diagnosis of a retained yolk sac with multifocal mineralization.
一只12日龄的褐几维鸟(褐几维)出现厌食、斜颈、头部倾斜和腹部膨胀症状。X光片显示有一个边界不清、脂肪密度高的腹腔肿块,将内脏向颅背侧推移。曲线状的矿物质密度影叠加在肿块腹侧。计算机断层扫描显示在一个脂肪衰减性肿块周边存在矿物质,符合残留卵黄囊的表现。实施了卵黄囊切除术(卵黄囊切除)。切除组织的组织病理学检查证实为残留卵黄囊伴多灶性矿化。
