Women with only minor anatomical deviations may request plastic surgery in an attempt to compensate a feeling of inadequacy or humiliation. Psychological evaluation may be warranted to preclude a number of possible sequels: feeling of cold, shivering and shaking, lasting for days, with or without conjunctivitis and rhinitis vasomotorica; hypochondriacal and paranoid tendencies, mistrustfulness and misunderstandings in regard to the doctor. The doctor's assent to the operation and performing of the operation may increase the feeling of humiliation instead of alleviating it.

Two adult patients with opsoclonus and tremor of the whole body associated with viral infections are reported. The first man presented with mumps (parotitis, orchitis and encephalitis). Paired serum mumps titers were both 1:80. The second patient had conjunctivitis and dizziness. Acute and convalescent sera showed significant rise of poliovirus type 3 titer. Clonazepam attenuated the symptoms in both patients.

Clinical and pathologic findings of avian paramyxovirus type 1 (PMV-1) in 19 houbara bustards (Chlamydotis undulata macqueenii) imported from Pakistan into the United Arab Emirates and one captive-bred bird are reported. Clinical signs included circling, walking backward, ataxia, opisthotonos, torticollis, recumbency, head tilt, head shaking, head tremor, tucking of head under keel, nasal discharge, conjunctivitis, and diarrhea. The length of time imported birds exhibited clinical signs varied from 4 days to 18 mo after importation. Hemagglutinating antibodies against PMV-1 were detected in the sera of all 17 birds from which blood samples were collected, and PMV-1 was isolated from pooled brain, spleen, and lung tissues from two birds with acute clinical signs. There were no distinctive gross lesions at necropsy, and histologic findings were consistent with but not pathognomonic for PMV-1. All houbara bustards managed in a captive breeding and restoration program established by the National Avian Research Center have been vaccinated against PMV-1 since October 1992, and no case of PMV-1 has been reported in this collection since that time.

The objective of this study was to demonstrate the effects of prolonged exposure to 6-ANA at low dose-levels in dogs. A male and a female Beagle dog received daily oral repetitive doses of 1 mg/kg or less for 20 weeks. Both dogs showed lacrimation, conjunctivitis, reduced motility and anemia since the second week of treatment. The female dog was more affected than the male and at the end of treatment period it had tremor, hanging lower jaw, stepping gait of the hind limbs, hunched posture, and general debilitation. Post-mortem examination of the female dog revealed prominent brain edema with pressure atrophy of the dorsal cranial bones. Microscopic examination of the nervous system revealed spongiform neuropathy in both animals mainly affecting the telencephalic cortex and hippocampal fascia dentata, the substantia gelatinosa in the spinal cord and the dorsal root and autonomic ganglia. The changes were produced by vacuolation of astrocytes in the central nervous system and perineuronal satellite cells in the ganglia. Examination of the other organs revealed thymic atrophy and high hematopoietic activity of the bone marrow in both dogs. The male had severe interstitial edema and vacuolar degeneration of the testicular seminiferous tubules and the female had marked chronic pyelonephritis. This chemically induced spongiform neuropathy in dogs obviously represents a subchronic form of the "energy deprivation syndrome" induced by impaired glucose utilization. Vacuolar degeneration of the testicular seminiferous epithelium may have the same pathogenesis.

The scientific literature of the past century is reviewed on fowl plague (presently termed highly pathogenic avian influenza, HPAI) in pigeons. HPAI viruses cause epidemic disease outbreaks with high rates of losses in many avian species, particularily in chickens and turkeys. Also susceptible to disease are quails, guinea fowl, ducks, geese, ostriches, passerine birds, and birds of prey whereas conflicting reports on the susceptibility of the domestic pigeon exist. Based on literature reports and on own experiments, and applying as criteria for judgements clinically overt forms of disease, virus multiplication plus shedding and seroconversion, it is concluded that domestic pigeons are only partially susceptible to influenza A viruses of the haemagglutinin subtype H7. Infection of pigeons with H7 viruses results only in some of them in signs, virus shedding and seroconversion. Using the same criteria, pigeons appear to be even less susceptible to infection with influenza A viruses of the H5 subtype. Only one of five publications describe in 1/19 pigeons exposed to H5 influenza A virus depression one day before death, and only 2/19 multiplied and excreted virus, and 1/19 developed circulating antibodies. Consequently, pigeons play only a minor role in the epidemiology of H5 influenza viruses. In contrast, following infection with influenza A virus of the subtype H7 clinical signs in pigeons consist of conjunctivitis, tremor, paresis of wings and legs, and wet droppings. H7-infected pigeons multiply and excrete H7 viruses and develop circulating antibodies. Albeit of the status of infection, free-flying domestic pigeons can act as mechanical vectors and vehicles for long-distance transmission of any influenza A virus if plumage or feet were contaminated.
