This abnormality was not identified on prior diagnostic investigations for hyporexia up to 3 weeks prior. A CT examination revealed a protrusion of the viscus through an area of anomalous abdominal wall thinning associated with the discontinuation of the transverse abdominis muscle in this region, rather than a true hernia. Exploratory celiotomy confirmed these findings, with the external rectus sheath and parietal peritoneum remaining intact without an overt hernia ring identified. Abdominal wall augmentation and reconstruction using internal abdominal oblique advancement and fold-over external rectus sheath imbrication resulted in complete resolution without recurrence on subsequent follow-ups. Despite gastrointestinal and muscle biopsies showing no evidence of neoplasia on histopathology, the patient developed an abdominal effusion and was diagnosed with granular lymphocyte lymphoma 4 weeks postoperatively, leading to euthanasia.Relevance and novel information: This case describes a non-traumatic abdominal wall pseudohernia in a geriatric cat, a condition which has not previously been reported. A novel reconstruction technique was used to correct the body wall anomaly, with a good short-term outcome without recurrence.","PeriodicalId":36588,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports","volume":"11 1","pages":"20551169251332826"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12062702/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144053575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A diagnosis of T-zone lymphoma was made from histopathology of an extirpated popliteal lymph node that had a marked paracortical expansion of small lymphocytes and prominent high endothelial venule proliferation. T-cell receptor gamma (TRG) molecular clonality PCR yielded a clonal rearrangement and immunohistochemistry demonstrated that the neoplastic lymphocytes expressed CD3 and did not express CD20. The cat was initially treated with two doses of intravenous vincristine and oral prednisolone followed by oral chlorambucil. The pleural effusion, lymphadenopathy, lymphocytosis, abdominal organomegaly and lethargy resolved, and the cat's appetite and body weight returned to normal. At the time of manuscript submission, the cat continued to do well, more than 24 months after presentation.Relevance and novel information: T-zone lymphoma is a common indolent lymphoma in dogs, but it has only been histopathologically described in one cat before this report.

A diagnosis of probable primary immune thrombocytopenia (pITP) was made based on profound thrombocytopenia, rapid response to glucocorticoid therapy and the absence of identified triggers for secondary immune thrombocytopenia. The patient was treated with glucocorticoids and remained in remission 18 months from diagnosis.Relevance and novel information: pITP is infrequently reported in cats and oral haematomas have not previously been documented as a presenting clinical sign. This case report serves to raise awareness of feline ITP and highlights the availability of evidence-based diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines that were published after the case was treated. While pITP can be refractory to treatment and can be associated with treatment-related morbidity, this case report demonstrates that an acceptable outcome can be achieved, albeit with a requirement for long-term treatment and regular monitoring.","PeriodicalId":36588,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports","volume":"11 1","pages":"20551169251326784"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12033422/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143988327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Abdominal radiographs and ultrasound revealed two cranial abdominal masses and another mass adjacent to the jejunum. Cytologic features of the cranial abdominal masses were consistent with exocrine pancreatic tissue. Four months later, a repeat abdominal ultrasound revealed progressive enlargement of the abdominal masses and medial iliac lymphadenopathy. On exploratory laparotomy, two abdominal masses were associated with the pancreas and incorporated large blood vessels supplying the liver, pancreas and spleen. The masses were non-resectable and incisional biopsies were obtained. The histologic features were diagnostic for a hyalinizing subtype of exocrine pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Chemotherapy was not pursued. Over 28 months after the initial detection of abdominal masses, the cat was still alive and reportedly doing well.Relevance and novel information: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of a hyalinizing subtype of pancreatic adenocarcinoma in a cat.

The cat was diagnosed with idiopathic chylothorax after serum biochemistry, thoracocentesis, cytology of pleural effusion, echocardiography and thoracic imaging were performed. After failure to respond to medical management with repeated thoracocenteses, the oral administration of rutin and a low-fat diet, the cat underwent staged interventions consisting of CT lymphangiogram, subtotal pericardiectomy and pleural access port (PAP) placement, followed by thoracic duct ligation (TDL) and cisterna chyli ablation (CCA) 2 months later.

Employing this device enabled frequent, low morbidity drainage of the pleural effusion as an alternative to repeated thoracocenteses and facilitated staging the interventions throughout management of idiopathic chylothorax in a cat.

Treatment was switched to dexamethasone (0.09 mg/kg q24h) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) (10 mg/kg q12h) was added as a steroid-sparing agent. Although dexamethasone was slowly tapered off, MMF alone successfully maintained PF in remission. After 15 weeks of treatment, blood tests showed neutropenia and thrombocytopaenia. MMF dose reduction (10 mg/kg q24h) resulted in the normalisation of haematological parameters, although a mild flare of PF occurred. The reintroduction of dexamethasone (0.09 mg/kg twice weekly) rapidly restored disease control. MMF (10 mg/kg q24h) and dexamethasone (0.045 mg/kg twice weekly) were continued as maintenance therapy. After 36 weeks, the cat remained in clinical remission without further complications.Relevance and novel information: To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first case report to describe the use of MMF in a cat with PF. MMF was well tolerated and it was able to manage clinical signs even after the discontinuation of corticosteroids. Since mild and reversible haematological abnormalities were observed, careful monitoring during MMF administration is recommended. In this case, MMF dose reductions led to flares requiring a temporary reintroduction of corticosteroids to maintain disease control. MMF could be useful as an alternative treatment in cats affected by comorbidities where corticosteroid monotherapy would pose risks.","PeriodicalId":36588,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports","volume":"11 1","pages":"20551169251321376"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11967229/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143781388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
