  • Title: Dual-phase computed tomography angiography of intestinal carcinoid tumor as a lead point for cecocolic intussusception in a dog.
    Author: Yoon S, Lee SK, Lee J, Baek YB, Cho KO, Choi J.
    Journal: J Vet Med Sci; 2019 Jun 28; 81(6):928-932. PubMed ID: 30996205.
    Abstract:
    In an 8-year-old Labrador Retriever with progressive anorexia, constipation, and depression, CT revealed intussusception of the cecum into the ascending colon and a small cecal mass showing strong enhancement on arterial phase. The ileocecocolic junction was surgically resected and histologically diagnosed as cecocolic intussusception with carcinoid tumor. The carcinoid tumor worked as a lead point of intussusception in this case. Dual phasic CT is useful to assess the presence of gastrointestinal tumors as lead points in old dogs with intussusception.
