| |
| − | *Occurs in many species
| |
| − | *Very stretchy and loose skin that tears easily
| |
| − | *Due to variety of defects of enzyme necessary for collagen synthesis or processing
| |
| − | *Histologically:
| |
| − | **Varies depending on cause
| |
| − | **May appear normal
| |
| − | **Collagen bundles varied in shape, size and their organisation

| |
| − | *Also called '''Red Foot Disease'''
| |
| − | *Occurs in sheep, dogs, cattle and horses
| |
| − | *Development of cutaneous blisters
| |
| − | *Varies depending on hereditary cause
| |
| − | *Affected animals tend not to survive
| |
| − | *Lesions appear at surfaces that are easily damaged, ''e.g.'' oral mucosa, feet
| |
| − | *Microscopically:
| |
| − | **Epidermal vesicular disease
| |
| − | **Healing displaces lesions more dorsally
| |
| − | **May become infected and form [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|pustules]]

| |
| − | *Microscopically:
| |
| − | **Enlarged primary follicles and wool fibres
| |

| |
| − | *Inherited cutaneous disease
| |
| − | *Occurs in dogs and cattle
| |
| − | *Grossly:
| |
| − | **Thickened skin due to [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|hyperkeratosis]]
| |
| − | **May crack resembling fish scales
| |
| − | *Increased adherence of keratocytes preventing normal desquamation
| |
| − | *In cattle occurs in two forms:
| |
| − | **Ichthiosis fetalis - fatal, stillborn calves or die within days of birth
| |
| − | **Ichthiosis congenita - folded and thickened skin, fissures and partial [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|alopecia]]

| |
| − | *Also called '''Pityriasis Rosea'''
| |
| − | *Occurs in pigs
| |
| − | *Symmetric lesions on the abdomen, loin and medial thigh
| |
| − | *Start as small [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|papules]] covered by brown [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|crusts]]
| |
| − | *-> lesions join and spread -> umbilicated [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|plaques]] containing white centres with erythematous and scaly borders
| |
| − | *Similar to [[Skin Infectious - Pathology|dermatophytosis]]
| |
| − | *Histologically:
| |
| − | **Epidermal hyperplasia, [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|parakeratosis]], epidermal [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|pustules]] and superficial perivascular dermatitis

| |
| − | *In dogs:
| |
| − | **Fatal acrodermatitis
| |
| − | **Lesions start between digits and on foot pads -> severe interdigital pyoderma -> [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|paronychia]] and [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|hyperkeratosis]] of pads
| |
| − | **May also occur on pinnae, elbows, muzzle, hocks or become generalised with [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|crusting, ulceration]] and secondary pyoderma
| |
| − | **Histologically:
| |
| − | ***Hyperkeratosis and bacterial pustular dermatitis
