Abstract

|
|
|
A 9-year-old, mixed-breed, castrated male dog presented with a one-week history of severe vomiting. Abdominal radiography showed a dilated small intestine loop. Abdominal ultrasonography showed small-intestinedistension up to 5 cm in diameter without mechanical obstruction. During exploratory laparotomy, an aperistaltic ilealsegment was resected. There was no narrowed cavity in the resected plane. Histopathologic and immunohistochemicalfindings confirmed visceral myopathy due to intestinal adenocarcinoma in the ileum and revealed partial destructionof the longitudinal and circular muscles with fibrosis. Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction caused by adenocarcinomawas diagnosed after considering the above investigative results.
