QUESTION

Uncommon sequelae of traumatic perforation of the reticular wall in cattle is?

OPTIONS

(A) Acute local peritonitis
(B) Rupture of left gastroepiploic artery
(C) Perforation of pericardium
(D) Recovery

ANSWER

(B) Rupture of left gastroepiploic artery

EXPLANATION

A penetrating reticular foreign body commonly causes local peritonitis and may extend toward the pericardium; some cattle recover if injury is contained. Rupture of the left gastroepiploic artery is an unusual vascular consequence, so it is the uncommon sequela among these choices.
