The foregoing sections feature many viral and bacterial infectious diseases of the gastrointestinal tract of rabbits, which often occur in combination and affect the overall enteric physiology of the rabbit in a syndrome known as dysbiosis.

It is a challenge for the pathologist to discern primary from secondary etiologies in rabbit enteric dis­ease. A simple measure of dysbiosis is Gram stain and semiquantitative aerobic culture of the upper small intestine and cecum for E. coli, which is rarely present in the normal rabbit gut.

  14. Congenital malformations of lower gastrointestinal tract may be divided into three categories—(a) small bowel malformations, e.g. atresia, malrotation, etc., (b) colorectal malformations, e.g. Hirschsprung disease or anorectal anomalies, and (c) abdominal wall defects with gut herniation.

  20. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (ART) with protease inhibitors (PIs) and nucleoside analogue inhibitors of viral reverse transcrip­tase (NRTI) allowed a major reduction in the severity and morbidity of HIV infection; however, these drugs were associated with the occurrence of secondary effects collec­tively termed “ART-related lipodystrophy or metabolic syndrome.”
