This study aimed to determine the ultrasonographic features and reference values of the abdominal anatomy in mixed-breed dwarf rabbits. Complete abdominal ultrasonographic examination was performed in 21 mixed-breed rabbits (12 males and 9 females) referred for examination to the Department of Animal Medicine, Production and Health, University of Padua, Italy. All animals were sedated during the procedure. The ultrasonographic anatomy of the abdomen was determined, including measurement (mean±SD) of the right kidney (length 2.87±0.34 mm; width 1.62±0.17 mm; height 1.66±0.14 mm) and left kidney (length 2.86±0.33 mm; width 1.72±0.19; height 1.58±0.15 mm), left adrenal gland (width 0.38±0.11 mm; length 0.71±0.14), right adrenal gland (width 0.34±0.08 mm; length 0.73±0.15 mm) and thickness of the walls of the stomach (0.10±0.01 mm), pylorus (0.28±0.04 mm), duodenum (0.19±0.04 mm), sacculus rotundus (0.22±0.06 mm), caecum (0.08±0.01 mm), appendix (0.19±0.04 mm), spiral loop of the ascending colon (0.14±0.04 mm) and distal colon (0.10±0.02 mm). A significant positive correlation between bodyweight and kidney size, adrenal gland length, stomach wall and sacculus rotundus wall was detected.
本研究旨在确定杂种矮兔腹部解剖结构的超声特征及参考值。对转诊至意大利帕多瓦大学动物医学、生产与健康系进行检查的21只杂种兔（12只雄性和9只雌性）进行了完整的腹部超声检查。所有动物在检查过程中均实施了镇静。确定了腹部的超声解剖结构，包括右肾（长2.87±0.34 mm；宽1.62±0.17 mm；高1.66±0.14 mm）、左肾（长2.86±0.33 mm；宽1.72±0.19；高1.58±0.15 mm）、左肾上腺（宽0.38±0.11 mm；长0.71±0.14）、右肾上腺（宽0.34±0.08 mm；长0.73±0.15 mm）以及胃壁（0.10±0.01 mm）、幽门（0.28±0.04 mm）、十二指肠（0.19±0.04 mm）、圆小囊（0.22±0.06 mm）、盲肠（0.08±0.01 mm）、阑尾（0.19±0.04 mm）、升结肠螺旋袢（0.14±0.04 mm）和远侧结肠（0.10±0.02 mm）的厚度测量（均值±标准差）。检测到体重与肾脏大小、肾上腺长度、胃壁和圆小囊壁之间存在显著正相关。
