  • Title: Congenital cystic disease of the liver and kidney in a pygmy goat.
    Author: Newman SJ, Leichner T, Crisman M, Ramos J.
    Journal: J Vet Diagn Invest; 2000 Jul; 12(4):374-8. PubMed ID: 10907871.
    Abstract:
    A 1-month-old pygmy goat was presented with abdominal distension and hematuria. Anemia, leukocytosis, and increased bilirubin and blood urea nitrogen levels suggested renal and hepatic disease. Radiographs revealed bilateral renomegaly, and ultrasound confirmed bilateral hydronephrosis. Necropsy findings determined that the renomegaly was due in part to edema and marked cystic tubular distension. Similarly, intrahepatic bile ducts were ectatic. The character and distribution of the gross and histologic lesions were consistent with a polycystic disorder, presumably congenital, affecting the liver and the kidney.
