Abstract
|
|
|
|
A 4-year-old spayed female Miniature Pinscher was presented with a 3.5-year history of elevated liver enzymes level. Continuous elevation of liver enzymes was found on repeated blood examinations and the dog was referred for further evaluation. The abdominal ultrasonography revealed that the gallbladder could not be visualized in any plane. The absence of gallbladder was suspected on ultrasonography. Computed tomography (CT) confirmed gallbladder agenesis (GBA). This is the first reported case of diagnosis of GBA in Miniature Pinscher by using CT.
