Brisket edema was moderately evident with positive jugular pulsation. The complete hemogram revealed markedly increased leukocytes with neutrophils. Serum biochemistry depicts elevated creatinine phosphokinase (CPK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), potassium (K+), Total protein (TP) and aspartate amino transferase (AST/SGOT). Examination of pericardial fluid showed considerable increase in the fibrinogen level and culturing of these fluid results in growth of the staphylococcal organisms. Whereas ultrasonography revealed changes according to congestive heart failure (CHF). These results were compared with necropsy findings and histopathology.enVeterinary ScienceHaemato-biochemical and ultrasonographic changes of pericarditis in a cross bred cowIndian Journal of Veterinary ResearchArticle
