Abstract

A 3-year-old male castrated domestic ferret presented with a 24 h history of lethargy, weakness, and anorexia. The ferret was tachypneic, painful, dehydrated, pale, and obtunded on physical examination. Radiographs and thoracic CT were utilized to diagnose a 360° right cranial lung lobe torsion (LLT) with secondary pneumothorax and pleural effusion. This was confirmed on gross necropsy and histopathology. The LLT was suspected to be secondary to previous trauma based on chronic bilateral rib fractures. Lung lobe torsions are life-threatening conditions infrequently described in veterinary medicine. Based on our review of the literature, this is the first description of an LLT in a ferret.

一只家养雪貂（Mustela putorius furo）的右颅肺叶扭转。

一只 3 岁的雄性阉割家貂在 24 小时内出现嗜睡、虚弱和厌食症状。经体格检查，该雪貂呼吸急促、疼痛、脱水、面色苍白、乏力。X光片和胸部CT诊断为右侧头颅肺叶360°扭转（LLT），继发气胸和胸腔积液。尸体解剖和组织病理学检查证实了这一点。根据双侧肋骨的慢性骨折情况，肺叶扭转被怀疑是继发于之前的外伤。肺叶扭转是一种危及生命的疾病，在兽医学中很少见。根据我们的文献综述，这是首次描述雪貂肺叶扭转。
