| Summary: | Sustained polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is a type of
ventricular dysrhythmias which originated from more than
one focus in ventricle and may lead to fatal arrhythmias like
as ventricular fibrillation and sudden death. A seven days old
female Holstein calve was referred to the Large Animals Hospital
of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of Selcuk University
with a history of sudden collapse. Electrocardiography
examination showed sustained polymorphic ventricular
tachycardia. Cardiac damage suspicion confirmed by elevation
in serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase-MB
(CK-MB) and creatine phosphokinase (CPK) concentrations
as cardiac damage enzymes. |
