Early sterile splenic abscess following vehicular trauma in a dog
A dog presented 24 hours following vehicular trauma. The dog presented in hypovolaemic shock and developed a progressive haemoperitoneum and anaemia over the following 2 days. Initial ultrasonography was concerning for a splenic mass, suspected to be a haematoma. The dog developed a waxing and waning fever despite broad‐spectrum antimicrobials, intermittent anorexia and abdominal pain. Exploratory celiotomy 10 days following trauma revealed a sterile splenic abscess, with complete resolution of clinical signs following splenectomy. Histopathology yielded a diagnosis of a sterile necropurulent abscess with no bacterial growth. This report suggests that a splenic abscess should be considered in post‐trauma patients with a fever, leukocytosis or abdominal pain.
期刊介绍:
Vet Record Case Reports is an online resource that publishes articles in all fields of veterinary medicine and surgery so that veterinary professionals, researchers and others can easily find important information on both common and rare conditions. Articles may be about a single animal, herd, flock or other group of animals managed together. Common cases that present a diagnostic, ethical or management challenge, or that highlight aspects of mechanisms of injury, pharmacology or histopathology are deemed of particular educational value. All articles are peer reviewed and copy edited before publication.
