Abscess
Its a localized infection with collection of bus in a cavity Many microrganisms may be pyogenic in action and may cause abscess
Abscess
Most of abscess begin as cellulites that become localized as an abscess form, the capillaries closed so the infection will kept localized
Abscess
If the infection is highly virulent, the clots in small blood v. may destroyed septic emboli may carried to other parts of the body proceeding abscesses, pyemia and septicemia
Abscess
When the infection occur in the tissue the bacteria on the center of the inflammatory area destroy the T. Defense become active and Leukocyte surround the infected area until local immunity is produced
Abscess
The dead bacteria and many PMNc remain in the necrotic cavity and these together with cellular debris, lymph and serum produce Suppurative or formation of pus
Abscess
The wall of abscess cavity consist of granulation T. that contain PMNc, leukocyte, lymphocyte, fibroblast and endothelial cells which activate the local immunity of the T.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis Depending on the clinical signs Exploratory puncture specially in the mature abscess
D.D
D.D Cyst Hematoma Distended synovial bursa Abdominal hernia
Treatment
Treatment
In acute mature abscess Hasten the maturation abscess by application of counter irritant Like iodine ointment 5%
Treatment
In certain cases its advisable to open the abscess as soon as its diagnose Like when the abscess localized near the vital organ or in the abdominal cavity or near the joint
Treatment
Surgical stapes The skin over the abscess should be clipped and shear and antiseptic application An open is made at the most dependant part of the swilling which is fluctuating and its better in the ventral part of the swilling to provide complete drainage of the abscess cavity
Treatment
After the pus is removed the cavity should be checked for any F.B and necrotic T. should be removed Then although flashing of the cavity should be made by suitable antiseptic like 10% povidone iodine or 1% chlor hixidene
Treatment
Then the abscess cavity should be packed completely with gauze saturated with ten. Iodine 5% This ten. Iodine gauze help in destruction of the lining membrane of abscess cavity and reduce the number of microrganisms
Treatment
The gauze is removed in 24h and then the cavity again flashed with mild antiseptic solution
Treatment
Treatment in cold abscess or chronic abscess Its developed very slowly due to chronic trauma to a certain area and it show little or no inflammatory reaction
Treatment
Sometime they gradually undergo softening and burst causing ulceration to the skin and mucous membrane The causes may be has a result of infectious dis. Like strangles, glander and T.B
Treatment
Counter irritant can be applied to render the abscess to acute form and bring the pus near the surface of the skin
