- Fibrin strands between the loops of the small intestine, adhered to the lateral lobe of the liver. Suggest peritonitis.
- Stomach was distended with ingesta (normal given she had eaten a day or so before euth)
- Patchy congestion of the gastric mucosa
- Mesenteric lymph nodes were congested (but not enlarged)
- Petechial (sp?) hemorrhage of the mucosa of the distal small intestine and the spiral colon
- Diffusely enlarged spleen (may be due to euth with barbiturates)
- Lungs were congested and rubbery
- Left ventricle of the heart was mildly dilated
- Adrenal cortex congested
- Rabies test negative
Nutshell (to this point): Some systemic infection going on. No clear indication of cause of neurological symptoms.
Hopefully more will be revealed from the the tests that are currently in progress.
Will keep you posted.
