METABOLIC BONE DISEASE IN JUVENILE HUMBOLDT PENGUINS (SPHENISCUS HUMBOLDTI): INVESTIGATION OF IONIZED CALCIUM, PARATHYROID HORMONE, AND VITAMIN D3AS DIAGNOSTIC PARAMETERS
Abstract
Three cases of metabolic bone disease (MBD) were identified in juvenile Humboldt penguins (Spheniscus humboldti) in a zoological collection. Diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment were challenging, in part because radiographs and traditional serum biochemistries did not provide adequate information to guide appropriate clinical management. Normal values for ionized calcium (iCa), 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25-(OH) D3], and parathyroid hormone (PTH)...
