    In spaying in small animals, continuous suture was carried out in such manner that no dead spaces might be produced in the subcutaneous and adipose tissues in the incised wound. The excessive portion of the suture material was used to perform continuous subcuticular sture and tie with the other end of the suture material. As a result, both ends of the suture material were buried in the subcutaneous tissue.
    Since no ends of the suture material appeared outside the wound, the spayed animal, especially the cat, did not lick the wound, which accelerated healing. It was not necessary to extract the suture material after the operation. No unfavorable postoperative histological reaction was found in the wound.

    Sialic acid (SA) in bovine blood was assayed by five methods: the enzyme, the resorcinol, the thiobarbituric acid, Ehrlich's, and Hess'. There were highly significant statistical correlations among the values obtained by these methods. The plasma concentration of SA measured by the enzyme method and that of mucoprotein (MP) measured by the Coomasie Brilliant Blue G-250 method were 51.6±7.6mg/dl and 111.3±33.4mg/dl, respectively, in 136 healthy adult cattle. The plasma level of SA was higher in 138 bovine neonates during 14 postnatal days than in normal adult cattle, and that of MP in the former during 35 postnatal days.
    The serum concentrations of SA and MP were measured in 206 cattle affected with some inflammatory diseases diagnosed by meat-inspecting or practicing veterinarians. They were much higher in cattle with pyemia and endocarditis verrucosa and higher in those with liver abscess, nephritis, arthritis and mastitis than in normal cattle. They showed a difinite pattern in cattle having received laparotomy during a postoperative period till repair. As indicators for the diagnosis of an inflammatory disease and for the condition of postoperative course in cattle, the assay of both substances seemed to be very useful.

    The occurrence, nature and location of foreign bodies contained in the reticulum were investigated in 2, 037 clinically healthy cows subjected to mass-screening with an X-ray car for large animals over a period from January, 1981 to November, 1982. These cows were kept in the Soya, Bekkai, Kushiro, Saroma, Ashoro and Obihiro districts of Hokkaido.
    Metallic foregin bodies (MFB), sand-like substance, and magnet were observed in the reticulum in 83.7%, 100%, and 42.0% of the cows, respectively. In 922 cows with MFB and sand-like substance in the reticulm, MFB perforating the reticular wall, MFB penetrating the “honey-comb” papilla and MFB lying free in the reticulum were seen in 1.6%, 46.2%, and 52.2% of the cows, respectively. In 746 caws with MFB, sand-like substance and magnet in the reticulum, MFB perforating the reticular wall, MFB penetrating the “honey-comb” papilla, nonferrous MFB, and all MFB attracted to magnet were noticed in 1.3%, 4.7%, 10.6%, and 83.4%, respectively. In 50.6% of 622 cows with all the MFB in the reticulum attracted to magnet, MFB attached to and projected from the magnet.
    These resulrs suggested that the oral administration of a magnet might be effective for the prevention and treatment of digestive disorders and traumatic diseases caused by MFB in the reitculum.

    A castrated hybrid pig about 5 months old weighing about 60 kg became thin, retarded in growth. Autopsy revealed abscess formation in the lungs, kidneys, and bronchial and submaxillary lymph nodes, cloudy swelling of the liver and kidneys, splenomegaly, obscurity of follicles in the spleen, and swelling of lymph nodes. Histological changes observed were suppurative catarrhal bronchitis and exudation containing abundant alveolar epithelial cells, polymorphocytes and lymphocytes in alveli. Cells of the reticuloendothelial system proliferated in the liver and spleen. Proliferation of polymorphonuclear and mononuclear cells and focal necrosis were also found in the liver. The kidneys were infiltrated with inflammatory cells and contained some abscesses with necrosis and proliferation of polymorphocytes. Lesions were absent in the brain.
    Salmonella typhi-suiswas isolated from four abscesses, which were in the lung, kidney, and bronchial and submaxillary lymph nodes, and lungs, organs, such as liver, spleen, kidneys, and superficial subinguinal, subiliac, internal iliac, popliteal and mesenteric lymph nodes.

    In 1981, two cows from two dairy farms were slaughtered for tuberculosis. They were non-visible-lesion reactors.Mycobacterium scrofulaceumwas isolated from one of them. It was derived from the mesenteric lymph node which showed tuberculous changes. This was the first report on the pathogenicity of this organism in Japan.
    The same degree of response was noticed to mammalian and avian tuberculin in guinea pigs sensitized with the isolated strain (sterilized). Therefore, a cross-reactivity was revealed between and both types of tuberculin. This organism was sensitive only to cycloserinum (CS) among 10 drugs examined.

    Cryptosporidium was detected in 4 chickens raised in layer and broiler flock. It parasitized the surface of epithelial cells of the bursa of Fabricius and trachea. Both organs showed epithelial hyperplasia and inflammatory cell infiltration. The etiologic role ofCryptosporidiumwas unknown in these cases.

    Right-sided juxtaposition of both auricles was observed in an 8-month-old Japanese black calf. The anomalous left auricle was located to the right of the aorta between the right auricle and the right anterior vena cava. The heart was associated with ventricular septal defect, double outlet right ventricle, and double anterior venae cavae. During life, two-dimensional echocardiography showed the origin of the aorta from the right ventricle.
