Squamous cell carcinoma in goats of two farmers in the State of Pará is described. Prevalence, correlation with the pigmentation of the perineal area and macro and microscopic characteristics of the lesions were studied. The tumors on the perineum were of varied development degrees, diameters and forms. On one farm, in the county of Viseu, from a total of 347 goats, 20 presented the neoplasia (5.8%). On the second farm, in the county of Garrafão do Norte, three cases of squamous cell carcinoma in a herd of 400 goats (0.75 %) were observed. The tumor was only observed in animals in which the perineal area was despigmented. The high incidence of this tumor appears to be due, to lack of pigmentation at the períneo and the high and short tail of the goats, that exposes the area to intense of ultraviolet radiation in the tropics.

A study of the skin diseases in sheep and goats in the semiarid of the states of Paraíba, Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Norte, Northeastern Brazil was performed. From January 2000 to November 2006, 656 cases in goats and 324 in sheep were presented to the Veterinary Hospital of the Federal University of Campina Grande in Patos, Paraíba. Additionally mailed in biopsy or necropsy skin samples from 31 goats and 45 sheep were studied histologically. Skin diseases were diagnosed in 35 goats (5.33% of all cases in this species) and 45 sheep (13.88% of the cases in this species). The most frequent skin disease was myiasis (10 cases in goats and 7 in sheep), followed by contagious echtyma (8 cases in goats and 2 in sheep), squamous cell carcinoma (4 cases in goats and 5 in sheep), dermatophylosis (8 cases in sheep), and allergic dermatitis (1 case in goats and 1 in sheep). Two cases of pythiosis in sheep, two cases of epidermolysis bullosa in goats, one case of poisoning by Brachiaria brizantha (photosensitization) and another by Leucaena leucocephala (alopecia) in sheep, and one case of papillomatosis, one of pemphigus foliaceous, one of protothecosis and one of rhabdomyosarcoma in goats were also diagnosed. In 4 cases in sheep and 19 in goats the etiologic diagnosis was not obtained. With the information of the occurrence and epidemiology of the skin diseases is possible to determine efficient control measures.

#33 - Neoplasias do trato alimentar superior de bovinos associadas ao consumo espontâneo de samambaia (Pteridium aquilinum)
Abstract in English:
ABSTRACT.- Moreira Souto M.A., Kommers G.D., Barros C.S.L., Piazer J.V.M., Rech R.R., Riet-Correa F. & Schild A.L. 2006. [Neoplasms of the upper digestive tract of cattle associated with spontaneous ingestion of bracken fern (Pteridium aquilinum).] Neoplasias do trato alimentar superior de bovinos associadas ao consumo espontâneo de samambaia (Pteridium aquilinum). Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira 26(2):112-122. Departamento de Patologia, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, 97105-900 Santa Maria, RS, Brazil. E-mail: glaukommers@yahoo.com
Thirty bovine with neoplasms of the upper digestive tract (UDT) associated with spontaneous ingestion of bracken fern (Pteridium aquilinum) were studied. They were from 27 farms, located in the municipalities of Jaguari (23) and Nova Esperança do Sul (4), Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The total cattle population in those farms was 1,090 and large amounts of bracken fern were found in the pastures. Twenty-six of the affected cattle were cows and four were castrated males, 3-13 years of age; most of them were 7-8 years old (46,6%). Clinical signs observed in the affected animals were progressive weight loss, absence of ruminal movements, cough, dysphagia, regurgitation, halitosis, diarrhea, and bloat. Less frequent signs were selective appetite, dyspnea, and salivation. Two bovine died and 28 were submitted to euthanasia in advanced stage of disease and necropsied. The main gross and microscopic alterations were found in identical areas of the UDT. They consisted of papillomas, transforming papillomas, and squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). Metastases of SCCs to regional lymph nodes and other organs, such as liver and lungs, were also observed (18/30). Twenty-nine bovine had papillomas of various sizes in several areas of the UDT. The digestive papillomatosis ranged from mild (45%), to moderate (38%), to severe (17%). Three developing phases were observed microscopically in the examined papillomas: an early growing phase, a developing phase, and a regressing phase. In 16 cases, there was malignant transformation of papillomas into SCCs. The SCCs were solitary (12/30) or multiple (18/30) and were histologically well, moderately, or poorly differentiated. Grouping the distribution of SCCs of larger extension in the UDT into cranial region (base of the tongue, pharynx/oropharynx, and epiglottis), medial region (esophagus), and caudal region (cardia and rumen), the distribution was cranial in 39%, middle in 16%, and caudal in 45% of the cases. By the same grouping criteria, but considering the total number of times SCCs of varied extensions were diagnosed in the cranial, middle, and caudal regions, the percentages changed to 34%, 26%, and 40%, respectively. The epidemiological and histomorphological evidences found in this study are in agreement with the observations that point out the co-carcinogenesis between bovine papillomavirus type 4 infection and chemicals of bracken fern in the pathogenesis of the SCCs in the UDT of cattle. However, the presence of pre-neoplastic changes and SCCs in situ or in early stages of development, independently of the presence of papillomas, clearly indicates the possibility of development of SCCs from normal epithelium, probably due to the direct action of the chemical carcinogens contained in bracken fern.

Por meio de revisão da literatura pertinente foram coligidos e são apresentados os principais dados relativos aos aspectos epidemiológicos, toxicológicos, clínicos, anátomo e histopatológicos observados nos casos de intoxicação pelo princípio radiomimético de Pteridium aquilinum (L.) Kuhn. São abordados a Hematúria Enzoótica Bovina (HEB), os Carcinomas das Vias Digestivas Superiores (CVDS), a Diátese Hemorrágica (DH), os Tumores Intestinais (TI) e a Degeneração Progressiva da Retina (DPR), com ênfase proporcional à importância de cada entidade. Esse estudo objetiva chamar a atenção para o especial significado dessa planta para a pecuária, em função dos prejuízos econômicos por ela determinados e, também, pelo provável risco que ela representa para a saúde humana.
#35 - Squamous cell carcinomas in_sheep on a farm in southem Brazil
Abstract in English:
Squamous cell carcinomas in Polwarth sheep were studied during two years on a farm in southern Brazil. The first case was observed in December 1977. From this date to March 1980, 14 additional sheep in a flock of 792 were affected. Eighteen neoplasms were observed in 15 sheep. Twelve of them were located on the muzzle, three on the ears, two on the eyelids and one on the lower lip. Nine neoplasms were surgically removed and only one recidivated during the observation period. Macroscopic and histologic appearance of the neoplasms are described. No metastases were detected in six necropsied sheep. The high incidence of neoplasms was assumed to be a consequence of the large percentage of old sheep in the flock.
Abstract in Portuguese:
A ocorrência de carcinomas epidermóides em ovinos da raça Ideal foi estudada, durante um período de dois anos, em um estabelecimento do município de Jaguarão, Rio Grande do Sul. O primeiro caso foi observado em um carneiro em dezembro de 1977. A partir desta data, até março de 1980, em um rebanho de 792 ovelhas de mais de 4 anos, 15 animais apresentaram a neoplasia, observando-se 18 tumores, com 12 localizações no focinho, três nas orelhas, duas nas pálpebras e uma no lábio inferior. Macroscopicamente, os tumores eram caracterizados por uma área ulcerada coberta por crosta de tecido necrótico, com superfície de corte de aspecto granuloso e branco-amarelado em 17 casos, e notava-se que as neoplasias infiltravam-se nos tecidos circundantes; histologicamente, as lesões tinham características de blastomas bem diferenciados, em 17 casos, com formação de quantidade considerável de queratina, com estroma abundante e infiltrado por linfócitos. Em nove animais a neoplasia foi extirpada cirurgicamente, ocorrendo recidiva somente em um caso durante o período de observação. Os seis ovinos necropsiados não apresentaram evidências de metástases nas observações macroscópica e histológica. A alta incidência da neoplasia (1,8%) foi atribuída ao elevado percentual de animais velhos na constituição do rebanho estudado.
#36 - Cholangiocellular carcinoma with biliary parasitism by Platynosomum fastosum
Abstract in English:
This is the first description of adenocarcinomas of the bile ducts of the cat (Felix cattus domesticus), naturally infected with the parasite Platynosornum fastosurn. The studies were based on four old female cats. The authors hypothesize a relationship between the parasites and the neoplasms, which is suggested by the appearance of neoplasms at the sites of parasitism. In a series of neoplasms diagnosed in cats in Brazil over a 20 year period by the authors, only 5 were primary to the liver, 4 of those being the duct carcinomas described. These findings are analagous to those reported in humans, cats and dogs parasitized by Clonorchis sinensis or Opistorchis felineus. The relatively advanced age of the animals studied and the long survival of certain trematodes in the biliary ducts indicate a chronic state of the lesions and their subsequent development into cancer.
Abstract in Portuguese:
Os autores fazem a primeira descrição de adenocarcinomas de dutos biliares em gatos (Felix cattus domesticus) com parasitismo dutal por Platynosomum fastosum. A observação é baseada em quatro casos e os animais tinham respectivamente 8,9 e 13 anos de idade, não havendo indicações da idade no 4º caso. Todos os animais eram fêmeas. Os autores concluem pela interdependência entre a parasitose e as neoplasias surgidas, o que é patenteado pelo aparecimento das mesmas ao nível dos sítios parasitados; de outro lado, em uma série de neoplasias diagnosticadas em gatos pelos autores ao longo de 20 anos, apenas cinco eram primárias do fígado, quatro dos quais eram os carcinomas dutais ora descritos. O problema apresenta analogia com os carcinomas de dutos biliares registrados em humanos, gatos e cães parasitados por Clonorchis sinensis ou por Opistorchis felineus. A idade relativamente avançada dos animais estudados e a sobrevivência longa de certos trematódeos das vias biliares indicam uma cronicidade de lesões dutais e a sua posterior cancerização.
