Sample Questions

Question 1
A 6-year-old Golden Retriever is presented with lethargy, polyuria, and polydipsia. A complete blood count (CBC) and serum chemistry panel are performed. The CBC is unremarkable. The chemistry panel reveals a blood glucose of 450 mg/dL (normal: 75-120 mg/dL) and elevated liver enzymes. A urinalysis shows 4+ glucosuria and 2+ ketonuria. Which of the following is the most likely pathologic process responsible for these findings?
Immune-mediated destruction of pancreatic beta cells
Neoplastic proliferation of adrenal cortical cells
Renal tubular insensitivity to antidiuretic hormone
Glycogen storage disease in hepatocytes
Question 2
A biopsy from a skin mass on an 8-year-old Boxer is submitted for histopathology. The pathologist describes 'sheets of round cells with distinct cell borders, abundant eosinophilic granular cytoplasm, and central, round nuclei.' There is minimal pleomorphism and a low mitotic rate. Mast cell granules are not observed with routine H&E staining but would likely be prominent with which special stain?
Prussian Blue
Toluidine Blue
Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS)
Masson's Trichrome
Question 3
Which of the following sets of clinical pathology findings is most consistent with a diagnosis of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)?
Increased platelet count, prolonged PT, prolonged aPTT, decreased FDPs
Thrombocytopenia, prolonged PT, prolonged aPTT, elevated FDPs
Thrombocytopenia, shortened PT, shortened aPTT, normal FDPs
Normal platelet count, normal PT, normal aPTT, elevated FDPs
Question 4
A dairy cow dies after a short period of ataxia, bellowing, and convulsions. At necropsy, the brain appears grossly normal. However, histopathology of the cerebral cortex reveals laminar cortical necrosis, characterized by a layer of dead, eosinophilic neurons. This finding is most pathognomonic for which condition?
Listeriosis
Rabies
Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy
Polioencephalomalacia
Question 5
A laboratory is performing a crossmatch for a feline blood transfusion. The donor is blood type A and the recipient is blood type B. What is the most likely outcome if this transfusion proceeds without a crossmatch?
A mild, delayed hemolytic reaction due to low-titer isoantibodies.
A severe, acute hemolytic transfusion reaction.
No reaction, as type A is a universal donor in cats.
Graft-versus-host disease.
