Abstract
Objectives: To report the compartmental location of feline aural inflammatory polyps within the tympanic bulla.
Materials and methods: Nine client-owned cats with clinical signs and middle ear filling consistent with feline aural inflammatory polyps were prospectively pre-selected and underwent unilateral or bilateral ventral bulla osteotomy. Preoperative and surgical findings, complications and outcomes were recorded. Tissues obtained from the ventromedial compartment and from the dorsolateral compartment of the tympanic bulla were submitted separately for histological examination. Definitively selected cats were those having feline aural inflammatory polyps in at least one compartment of their operated tympanic bulla.
Results: Ten ventral bulla osteotomies were performed on nine cats. Feline aural inflammatory polyps were histologically diagnosed in both compartments of all tympanic bullas. There were no intraoperative complications. Apart from Horner's syndrome on the ipsilateral eye following surgeries, post-operative complications were rare. This is the first study that documents the presence of feline aural inflammatory polyps in both compartments of the tympanic bulla in all cats with aural involvement.
Clinical significance: Should a complete excision of feline aural inflammatory polyps be desired, complete debridement of both compartments of the tympanic bulla is required. Traction-avulsion techniques using approaches of tympanic bulla with no visit of the ventromedial compartment may not completely resolve the condition.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Small Animal Practice (JSAP) is a monthly peer-reviewed publication integrating clinical research papers and case reports from international sources, covering all aspects of medicine and surgery relating to dogs, cats and other small animals. These papers facilitate the dissemination and implementation of new ideas and techniques relating to clinical veterinary practice, with the ultimate aim of promoting best practice. JSAP publishes high quality original articles, as well as other scientific and educational information. New developments are placed in perspective, encompassing new concepts and peer commentary. The target audience is veterinarians primarily engaged in the practise of small animal medicine and surgery.
In addition to original articles, JSAP will publish invited editorials (relating to a manuscript in the same issue or a topic of current interest), review articles, which provide in-depth discussion of important clinical issues, and other scientific and educational information from around the world.
The final decision on publication of a manuscript rests with the Editorial Board and ultimately with the Editor. All papers, regardless of type, represent the opinion of the authors and not necessarily that of the Editor, the Association or the Publisher.
The Journal of Small Animal Practice is published on behalf of the British Small Animal Veterinary Association and is also the official scientific journal of the World Small Animal Veterinary Association
