| 中文描述 | 荷蘭成年的Meuse-Rhine-Yssel牛以及日本好斯坦種-黑白花母牛形成肌肉萎縮,以組織學證實有退化的肌肉纖維為特色.損傷於橫膈趨於惡化,但是其他肌肉也被涉及.這不是由於維他命E或硒缺乏造成的.藉由受影響的組織作組織學檢查來診斷.沒有治療方法;懷疑是遺傳導致的,並且這被與擴張的心肌病相關. |
| 英文描述 | Adult Meuse-Rhine-Yssel cattle in the Netherland and Holstein-Friesian cows in Japan developed a muscular dystrophy characterized by histologically evident degeneration of muscle fibers. Lesions are worst in the diaphragm, but other muscle is also involved. This is not due to vitamin E or Se deficiency. Dx by histologic exam of affected tissue. No treatment was described; a genetic cause is suspected, and this has been associated with dilated cardiomyopathy. |
