  • Title: Rectal prolapse of an ileocaecal neoplasm associated with intussusception in a cat.
    Author: Demetriou JL, Welsh EM.
    Journal: J Feline Med Surg; 1999 Dec; 1(4):253-6. PubMed ID: 11714242.
    Abstract:
    Intussusception associated with lymphoma of the ileocaecocolic junction was diagnosed in a 12-year-old female domestic short-haired cat that presented with a 3-week history of diarrhoea and a protruding anal mass. Surgical exploration revealed an ileocolonic intussusception proximal to the mass at the ileocaecal junction which was excised. A diagnosis of ileocaecocolic lymphosarcoma was made and euthanasia was later performed. This is an unusual case of an ileocaecal junction tumour that manifested as a rectal prolapse associated with intussusception in a cat.
