Cystoscopy and exploratory laparotomy confirmed the absence of the uterine body and vagina, while bilateral uterine horns were present and both ureters inserted normally into the urinary bladder. These findings suggested partial persistent urogenital sinus (PPUS) rather than a complete form. Medical management failed to improve the incontinence, and urethral plication was performed without artificial urethral sphincter (AUS) implantation. The cat regained voluntary urination immediately, and continence was maintained for 741 days without recurrence or complications.Relevance and novel information: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of long-term urinary continence achieved in a cat with PPUS using urethral plication alone, without AUS implantation. The case highlights the practicality and cost-effectiveness of urethral plication as a minimally invasive alternative surgical technique for young or small cats.","PeriodicalId":36588,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports","volume":"12 1","pages":"20551169261422319"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2026-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13009817/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147515419","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}

Laryngeal ultrasonography, fluoroscopy, endoscopy and contrast-enhanced CT revealed a 1.7 cm laryngeal mass without metastasis. A biopsy obtained under laryngoscopic guidance confirmed squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The cat underwent stereotactic radiation therapy (SRT) in three 10 Gy fractions on consecutive days (total 30 Gy). Mild drooling occurred during treatment and was controlled with prednisolone.

Initial imaging revealed bronchiectasis and pneumonia in the accessory lung lobe due to an inhaled grass awn, which was successfully removed via bronchoscopy. Subsequent clinical deterioration prompted further investigation, which identified a hepatic abscess containing a vegetal foreign body. The foreign body was suspected to have migrated through the diaphragm from the respiratory system. Surgical exploration confirmed the hepatic lesion. The grass awn was localised and extracted using intraoperative ultrasonographic guidance, avoiding the need for hepatic lobectomy. The cat recovered uneventfully with long-term antibiotic therapy.Relevance and novel information: To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a hepatic abscess caused by the migration of a grass awn foreign body in a cat. It is also the first report of intraoperative ultrasonography to localise and extract a non-visible plant-based foreign body within the deep hepatic parenchyma in this species. This case highlights the value of integrating advanced imaging modalities such as CT for preoperative planning and intraoperative ultrasonography to enable targeted and minimally invasive surgical interventions.

Neurological examination, CT and video-otoscopic evaluation confirmed a right-sided peripheral vestibular syndrome secondary to otitis media. The cat received cefixime (10 mg/kg PO q24h) and methylprednisolone (1 mg/kg PO q24h) for 2 weeks, resulting in marked improvement of vestibular signs by day 4. During the physical examination, multiple firm, non-painful subcutaneous nodules of varying sizes were palpated in different body regions, unrelated to the primary neurological complaint. Laboratory analysis revealed serum calcium, ionised calcium and phosphorus concentrations within reference intervals, with a calcium-phosphorus product below the threshold for metastatic calcification. Ultrasonographic and hormonal assessments excluded metabolic, iatrogenic and dystrophic causes. Histopathological examination of an excisional biopsy from the largest lesion revealed dermal collagen fibril calcification surrounded by a hypocellular fibrous capsule and mild lymphohistiocytic inflammation, consistent with calcinosis cutis.Relevance and novel information: The clinical, laboratory and histopathological findings supported a diagnosis of multifocal idiopathic calcinosis cutis.

Initial treatment for presumed feline asthma was unsuccessful. Thoracic CT revealed an intraluminal mass at the carina and complete atelectasis of the right middle lung lobe. Endoscopy initially identified an intraluminal mass. As biopsy was considered unsafe owing to the risk of acute airway obstruction, brush cytology was performed instead; however, it was non-diagnostic. As a result of progressive obstructive respiratory failure, urgent palliative radiation therapy was initiated (6 Gy × 6 fractions weekly; total dose 36 Gy). By the fourth fraction, the cat showed marked clinical improvement, and imaging confirmed tumour shrinkage. Before the fifth fraction, endoscopic biopsies were repeated and histopathology established a diagnosis of an epithelial malignant tumour, most consistent with adenocarcinoma. Toceranib phosphate was introduced on an alternate-day schedule as adjuvant therapy. The short-term outcome was favourable, with resolution of clinical signs. The cat remained clinically well more than 150 days after the start of radiation therapy.Relevance and novel information: Primary tracheal tumours are rare in cats, and treatment protocols are not well defined. Surgical excision of masses involving the carina is technically challenging, and radiation therapy for this location has not previously been reported. In this case, a short course of hypofractionated radiation therapy rapidly alleviated airway obstruction, allowing stabilisation of ventilation and subsequent histopathological confirmation. This staged diagnostic-therapeutic approach highlights the utility of hypofractionated radiation therapy as an emergency airway-sparing treatment for cats with obstructive tracheal tumours.","PeriodicalId":36588,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports","volume":"12 1","pages":"20551169251410900"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12906626/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146207895","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}
