  • Title: Subclinical intestinal duplication in a cat.
    Author: Radlinsky MA, Biller DS, Nietfeld J, Enwiller T.
    Journal: J Feline Med Surg; 2005 Aug; 7(4):223-6. PubMed ID: 16055007.
    Abstract:
    An abdominal mass was identified upon palpation of the abdomen in a normal, asymptomatic, 1-year-old female domestic shorthair cat presented for elective ovariohysterectomy. Radiographic and ultrasound examinations demonstrated a well-circumscribed caudal abdominal mass. Ultrasound guided needle aspiration cytology was consistent with an accumulation of squamous epithelial cells. The mass was associated with the jejunum and was excised via resection anastomosis of the intestinal segment after ovariohysterectomy. Histologic examination provided the diagnosis of an intestinal duplication lined with epithelium typical of that in the esophagus. The cat recovered without complications.
