| traumatic gastritis | A condition of cattle, caused by the penetration of the stomach wall, usually the reticulum, by any kind of sharp object (usually metallic) which has been swallowed. Synonym: hardware disease, traumatic reticuloperitonitis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| eosinophilic gastritis | <radiology> Eosinophilic infiltration of mucosa, submucosa, and muscularis of small bowel with or without stomach, stomach (almost always limited to antrum): enlarged gastric rugae, cobblestone nodules, polyps (=mucosal type), rigid wall with narrowed antrum/pylorus, bulky inramural mass up to 9 cm (=muscular type), wet stomach, ulcers rare, may have ascites, small bowel (predominantly jejunum), thickening and distortion of folds (=mucosal type), effacement of mucosa and narrowing of lumen (=muscular type), prognosis: tendency to spontaneous remission, treatment: steroids; removal of sensitizing agent (12 Dec 1998) |
| erosive gastritis | <gastroenterology> A form of severe inflammation of the stomach that can result in erosions in the lining of the stomach. Complications include perforation, penetration (into a surrounding organ) and haemorrhage. (27 Sep 1997) |
| exfoliative gastritis | Gastritis with excessive shedding of mucosal epithelial cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute interstitial nephritis | <nephrology> A relatively uncommon condition which is characterised by inflammation of the renal tubules, glomeruli and surrounding tissue. Interstitial nephritis is usually be temporary and often associated with the use of a particular medication. Chronic and progressive forms do exist. Drugs that have been associated with interstitial nephritis include penicillins, ampicillin, sulpha drugs, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, furosemide and thiazide diuretics. May result in mild kidney dysfunction or acute renal failure. Treatment may be with corticosteroids. Incidence: 1 in 25,000. (29 Dec 1997) |
| acute interstitial pneumonia | A severe and usually fatal form of pneumonia occurring primarily in infants usually considered a form of hypersensitivity pneumonitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute interstitial pneumonitis | Usually considered a form of hypersensitivity pneumonitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apical interstitial lung disease | <radiology> A radiological diagnosis where fibrosis is seen in the apices (upper sections) of the lungs. Likely causes include: cystic fibrosis, ankylosing spondylitis, sarcoidosis, silicosis, eosinophlic granuloma, TB and fungus, particularly aspergillus infection. (25 Jun 1999) |
| basilar interstitial lung disease | <radiology> B bronchiectasis, A asbestosis, D drugs / DIP, L lymphangitic metastasis / LAM, A aspiration, S sarcoidosis, S scleroderma (12 Dec 1998) |
| chronic interstitial hepatitis | An obsolete term for cirrhosis of the liver. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chronic interstitial hypertrophic neuropathy | dejerine-Sottas disease |
| chronic interstitial salpingitis | Salpingitis in which fibrosis or mononuclear cell infiltration involves all layers of the fallopian or eustachian tube. Synonym: pachysalpingitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pneumonia, atypical interstitial, of cattle | A cattle disease of uncertain cause, probably an allergic reaction. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pneumonia, progressive interstitial, of sheep | Chronic respiratory disease caused by the visna-maedi virus. It was formerly believed to be identical with jaagsiekte (pulmonary adenomatosis, ovine) but is now recognised as a separate entity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cystitis, interstitial | Disease that involves inflammation or irritation of the bladder wall. This inflammation can lead to scarring and stiffening of the bladder, and even ulcerations and bleeding. Diagnosis is based on symptoms, findings on cystoscopy and biopsy, and eliminating other treatable causes such as infection. Because doctors do not know what causes IC, treatments are aimed at relieving symptoms. most people are helped for variable periods of time by one or a combination of treatments. (12 Dec 1998) |
