| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Chronic gastritis is usually proliferative rather any other type of gastric inflammation.
| |
| − | * Usually a parasitic cause.
| |
| − | * Occurs mostly in the pig and in cattle.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * '''Pig'''
| |
| − | ** Redworms (''Hyostrongylus'')
| |
| − | ** Seen mostly in sows, and are present in up to 30% of pig herds.
| |
| − | ** Small numbers produce little pathology, but large numbers cause thin sow syndrome.
| |
| − | *** Animals eat well but slowly lose condition.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * '''Cattle'''
| |
| − | ** [[Stomach and Abomasum Parasites - Pathology#Ostertagiasis|Ostertagiasis]] produces a condition similar to thin sow syndrome.

| |
| − | * Clinically see anorexia, weight loss, anaemia and associated hepatic disease.
| |
| − | * Associated with protein loss into gut.

| |
| − | ====Pathology====
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Hyperplasia of mucosa.
| |
| − | ** Mucosa thrown up into folds.
| |
| − | ** Reduced numbers of parietal cells and increased numbers of goblet cells.

| |
| − | === Chronic Atrophic Gastritis In The Dog===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Aetiology uncertain.
| |
| − | * '''Grossly:''' (may be difficult to appreciate)
| |
| − | ** Reduced mucosal thickness.
| |
| − | ** Loss of rugae.
| |
| − | * '''Histologically'''
| |
| − | ** Mucosal thinning.
| |
| − | ** Loss of gastric glands.
| |
| − | ** Diffuse inflammatory infiltrate of lymphocytes and plasma cells.
| |
| − | ** Fewer eosinophils in lamina propria.
