Abstract
يك رأس گوساله هلشتاين نر 40 روزه با تاريخچه عدم توانايي در حركت دادن زبان همراه با داشتن مشكل در شير خوردن به كلينيك ارجاع گرديد. در معاينه كلينيكي، درست در وسط ناحيه جلويي زبان يك بريدگي كوچك آشكار بود. به علاوه يك لايه نازك بافتي بين سطح شكمي زبان و كف حفره دهان مشاهده گرديد. در گوساله مزبور بيماري آنكيلوز ناكامل سطح شكمي زبان تشخيص داده شد. براي درمان، فرنوپلاستي افقي و عمودي انجام شد. يك روز بعد از عمل، حيوان زبان خود را به خوبي حركت ميداد. نتيجه اين عمل نشان داد كه عمده علائم كلينيكي از جمله مشكلات حين خوردن و آشاميدن به خاطر محدوديت در حركت زبان بوده است. عمل فرنوپلاستي ميتواند باعث بهبودي در حركت زبان گردد.
Abstract
A 40-day-old male Holstein breed calf with a complaint of inability of moving the tongue in and out as well as difficulties with breastfeeding was referred to the veterinary clinic. A notch in the middle of the tongue tip was evident during oral examination. In addition, a thin tissue band between the ventral surface of the tongue and floor of the oral cavity was seen in the calf. A diagnosis of partial ventral ankyloglossia was made. Horizontal to vertical frenuloplasty was performed to correct the ankyloglossia. The day after the surgery, greater mobility of the tongue was evident. It was concluded that most of the clinical signs, including problems during eating and breastfeeding were due to limitation of tongue movements. Horizontal to vertical frenuloplasty may improve clinical full function of tongue movement.
