Abstract
|
|
|
This report describes a three-month-old Korean domestic kitten presented with dehydration and poor body condition.
Physical examination revealed abdominal distension. Rectal diagnosis was unachievable due to the small rectum diameter. X-rayradiography and endoscopy confirmed presence of abdominal distension and indicated a stricture located 1.5 cm from the anus. Aballoon was gently inserted into the rectum and inflated several times followed by triamcinolone injection. Four months later, sameprocedures were repeated. This report is the first to describe the use of balloon dilation of a rectal stricture followed by intralesionaltriamcinolone injection in a small cat with poor condition.
