Amphibians are a diverse class of animals with a unique life cycle. Intrinsic and extrinsic factors contribute to the wide variability in normal hematologic parameters. Reference values are scarce, and normal hematology of many species is poorly understood.

Knowledge of the anatomy of the amphibian eye is important to differentiate normal from abnormal. Special features of the amphibian eye mark the transition from aquatic to terrestrial life. The most often reported spontaneous ocular disease in the anurans (frogs and toads) is lipid keratopathy. An experimental study showed that high dietary cholesterol

Amphibians are commonly kept in laboratory and zoological facilities and are becoming more frequent as pets. However, many amphibian species are declining in the wild owing to a variety of infectious and noninfectious diseases. This article reviews the current state of knowledge of mycobacteriosis in amphibian species, including pathogenesis, clinical ...

Amphibians are susceptible to a multitude of skin disorders, many of which can appear grossly similar. The most common clinical presentations include hyperemia, discoloration, dermal mass, ulceration, and necrosis. Many amphibian skin diseases are related to captive husbandry. The diagnostic process starts with environmental evaluations, a full history,

Amphibian surgery has been especially described in research. Since the last decade, interest for captive amphibians has increased, so have the indications for surgical intervention. Clinicians should not hesitate to advocate such manipulations. Amphibian surgeries have no overwhelming obstacles.

Despite advances in exotic animal endoscopy, descriptions involving amphibians are scarce. Amphibian endoscopy shares some similarities with reptiles, especially in lizards. Selected procedures are discussed, including stomatoscopy, gastroscopy, coelioscopy, and biopsy of coelomic organs and lesions.

Spontaneous neoplasia is rare in all three orders of Amphibia. Tumors are documented in most major organ systems, and some have various underlying etiologies, including viral infection, environmental contaminants, and genetic predisposition. Currently,treatment options are limited to removal of the predisposing condition(s), palliative care, surgical ...

Bisalbuminemia in an amphibian
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1985Improved electrophoretic resolution revealed two albumin-like proteins in Taricha granulosa plasma (bisalbuminemia). The Taricha proteins were compared to mammalian, avian and reptilian serum albumins regarding molecular weight, amino acid composition, isoelectric character, solubility and the binding of hemin and dyes.
