Abstract

Case summary: A 1-year-old domestic shorthair queen with five neonates was referred for umbilical cord entwinement in three kittens 24 h after parturition. The owner noticed the kittens were stuck to each other 3 h before admission. Despite a conservative treatment approach, prolonged ischaemia led to dry gangrenous changes in one of the kitten's metatarsi.

Relevance and novel information: This and other neonatal complications in cats are rarely reported. Primiparity is a known factor contributing to postpartum complications. Furthermore, inexperienced owners require more assistance in mitigating these challenges. Therefore, further research and collaboration among breeders, owners and veterinary professionals are imperative in order to accurately determine the prevalence of this condition in kittens and develop effective strategies to address it.

出生 1 天的小猫自发性脐带缠绕。

病例摘要：一只 1 岁大的家养短毛猫王有 5 只新生儿，因 3 只小猫产后 24 小时脐带缠绕而转诊。入院前 3 小时，猫主人发现小猫们互相粘连在一起。尽管采取了保守治疗方法，但由于缺血时间过长，其中一只小猫的跖部出现了干性坏疽病变：猫的这种并发症和其他新生儿并发症很少见报道。初产妇是导致产后并发症的一个已知因素。此外，缺乏经验的饲养者需要更多的帮助来应对这些挑战。因此，必须在饲养者、主人和兽医专业人员之间开展进一步的研究和合作，以准确确定这种情况在幼猫中的流行程度，并制定有效的应对策略。
