Initial treatment with procainamide had overall low efficacy. The cat was then switched to carbamazepine, which provided long-term improvement in clinical signs at a dosage of 7.4 mg/kg PO q12h with no observed clinical side effects.Relevance and novel information: To date, there is only a single case report describing the successful treatment of MC in cats, and no report describing the use of carbamazepine to treat this condition in this species. This anti-convulsant medication was shown to be anecdotally effective in the case reported. Further research is needed to categorize the metabolism, pharmacokinetics, tolerance, dose range and efficacy of carbamazepine in cats with and without MC.","PeriodicalId":36588,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports","volume":"10 2","pages":"20551169241288447"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11605756/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142773257","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}

Although this phenomenon is well documented in people, there are no previous reports in cats. Both cats in the current report had International Renal Interest Society (IRIS) stage 2 chronic kidney disease, a history of seizures (one generalized, one focal), and received gabapentin before veterinary hospital visits to alleviate anxiety (doses in the range of 11.8-16.4 mg/kg). While in the hospital, both cats were noted to have intermittent short jerks of the head that were different from the seizure activity previously noted by their owners at home. These cases appear to be the first published reports of this potential adverse effect of gabapentin in cats and risk factors in the present cases mirror those described in people.Relevance and novel information: Clinicians should be aware of the potential for this phenomenon in cats receiving recommended doses of gabapentin, and future studies should focus on the role of chronic kidney disease and other neurologic conditions as risk factors for development of this condition.","PeriodicalId":36588,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports","volume":"10 2","pages":"20551169241273634"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11605758/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142773258","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}

Medical records were retrospectively reviewed to identify cats with decreased nasal airflow and mucopurulent discharge that failed to improve on antibiotic therapy of 3 months or longer duration. Surgical debridement was followed by nasal packing using 5% povidone-iodine saturated umbilical tape, which was replaced at 24 h postoperatively. At 48 h postoperatively, the rhinotomy site was closed. Systemic therapy continued in the postoperative period. All cases were minimally responsive to previous medical management. History, signalment, clinical signs, diagnostic findings, treatment, and short- and long-term outcomes were retrieved. All cats were middle-aged with outdoor access and had clinical signs that commenced during the summer months. CT revealed turbinate destruction and soft tissue densities within the nasal passages. The otic apparatuses and calvaria were intact in all cats before surgery. A repeat CT examination revealed an improvement of the proliferative tissue identified in preoperative imaging in all cases. All cats achieved successful interruption of nasal discharge and restoration of nasal airflow with follow-up times of up to 16 months postoperatively.Relevance and novel information: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of the use of intranasal povidone-iodine packing in cats for the management of infectious rhinosinusitis.

Abdominal ultrasound examination revealed a jejunal foreign body, which was removed via enterotomy. Preoperatively, the patient was hypoglycaemic and, intraoperatively, a dopamine infusion was required to maintain a mean arterial pressure >60 mmHg. Despite glucose supplementation, the cat remained severely hypoglycaemic on recovery. Within 24 h postoperatively, despite euglycaemia and normalisation of the cardiovascular status, the patient developed progressive polyuria (up to 14 ml/kg/h). This was associated with neurological signs suggestive of diffuse brain disease, and absence of azotaemia or signs of overhydration. During the first 4 days of hospitalisation, any attempts to decrease intravenous fluid therapy were associated with hypotension, weight loss and clinical dehydration. Urine specific gravity (USG) during this time was in the range of 1.005-1.010 and failed to increase during fluid challenges. A presumptive diagnosis of central diabetes insipidus was made, and desmopressin (1 µg/cat SC) was administered on day 5 of hospitalisation. Consequently, the cat's urinary output decreased and his weight increased within 4 h. The patient required a total of four doses of desmopressin during hospitalisation, but no further doses since discharge. Urinary output on discharge was 3 ml/kg/h. Three months later, the cat's neurological signs and polyuria had completely resolved, and the USG was >1.050.Relevance and novel information: In this case, a presumptive diagnosis of central diabetes insipidus was supported by clinical progression, neurological signs and the response to desmopressin.

Herein, we report a case of PHA with infraspinatus muscle necrosis. A 5-year-old castrated male domestic shorthair cat presented with a history of polyuria and polydipsia, decreased activity, staggering gait, difficulty in jumping and inward rotation of both forelimbs. Blood examination revealed hypokalaemia, increased serum creatinine kinase activity and high serum aldosterone concentration. Abdominal ultrasonography and CT revealed an enlarged right adrenal gland. Post-contrast thoracic CT showed peripheral contrast enhancement and a non-enhanced centre in the bilateral infraspinatus muscles. From the day of initial presentation, the cat was started on oral potassium replacement therapy. On day 17, the right adrenal gland was surgically resected and the left infraspinatus muscle was biopsied. Histopathological examination confirmed the presence of an adrenocortical adenoma in the right adrenal gland and necrosis of the muscle fibres in the left infraspinatus muscle. On day 29, all clinical signs had disappeared, and the serum potassium concentration, creatinine kinase activity and aldosterone concentration had normalised. On day 57, atrophy of the bilateral infraspinatus muscles was noted, but there was no evidence of any posture or gait abnormalities.Relevance and novel information: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of possible infraspinatus muscle necrosis in a cat with PHA. It is also possible that the infrinatus muscle necrosis with hypokalaemic polymyopathy secondary to PHA was caused by compartment syndrome in the cat described here.","PeriodicalId":36588,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports","volume":"10 2","pages":"20551169241282737"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11487503/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142476730","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}

Clinical signs on presentation, investigations, description of the surgical technique, and short- and long-term follow-up were reported. Type I phimosis was diagnosed in both kittens based on the clinical, radiographic and surgical exploration findings. Modified circumferential preputioplasty using 4 and 6 mm Keyes biopsy punches was performed by the same surgeon in each case. The biopsy punch was centred over the existing narrowed preputial orifice and rotated clockwise and anticlockwise to obtain a sharp circumferential cut through the skin and submucosa of predictable diameter. The underlying mucosa was resected with micro curved scissors and mucocutaneous apposition was achieved with simple interrupted sutures placed circumferentially. Minor protrusion of the tip of the penis was recorded in the short-term follow-up (2 weeks) but resolved on the long-term follow-up (10 and 72 months). No evidence of urinary tract infection, strictures or clinical signs associated with phimosis were recorded at long-term follow-up.Relevance and novel information: This short case series describes the surgical correction of type I phimosis by circumferential preputioplasty implemented using a Keyes biopsy punch in two kittens. The technique described in this case series can be considered alongside other reported surgical techniques, and appears to provide a reliable, rapid and accurate removal of preputial skin in the two reported cases.","PeriodicalId":36588,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports","volume":"10 2","pages":"20551169241277068"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11490962/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142476731","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}
