Uraemia
- In terminal renal failure animal may present with painful ulcers in mouth, which become secondarily infected with Fusiformis.
- High concentrations of toxic materials in the blood results in degeneration of small arterioles.
- In the mouth, this damage to the blood supply can cause epithelial necrosis.
- Usually seen as erosions along the ventrolateral borders of the tongue and on the cheeks, especially opposite the teeth.
- In some cases there may be more extensive necrosis which may involve subepithelial tissue
- for example, the tip of the tongue may slough.
- Most commonly seen in dog sometimes in cat.

- May also cause epithelial necrosis and sloughing.

Ulcers Following Trauma
- Any animal that is exposed to coarse feed or sharp things in food can suffer from ulcers in mouth.
- They often become secondarily infected with production of metastatic infection that may result in large abscess on point of jaw.
- i.e. trauma on tongue may lead to secondary infection that may lead to abscess in drainage lymph node.
- Deep ulcers may occur as a result of trauma in any species.
- These readily become secondarily infected by Fusiformis.
- Produces a fibrin-covered ulcer.
- Responds to antibiotics, but may leave a defect or scar in mucosa.
