Goiter in Camels

This presentation provides a detailed overview of goiter in camels, an endocrine disorder characterized by abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland. It examines the classification, geographic distribution, risk factors, and major causes, particularly iodine deficiency, goitrogenic feed, maternal nutritional status, and thyroid hormone synthesis abnormalities. The presentation also explains the underlying pathophysiology, clinical signs, differential diagnoses, and diagnostic methods. Treatment and prevention strategies, including iodine supplementation, supportive care, maternal nutrition, and herd monitoring, are discussed alongside the economic and veterinary impact of the disorder and complementary regenerative approaches for animal health.
