  • Title: A case of acute splenic vein thrombosis in a dog.
    Author: Kim J.
    Journal: J Vet Med Sci; 2019 Oct 24; 81(10):1492-1495. PubMed ID: 31406036.
    Abstract:
    An 11-year-old, castrated male, Yorkshire Terrier was presented with acute vomiting after chicken bone ingestion. The dog had been diagnosed with hyperadrenocorticism previously and showed acute splenomegaly and signs of systemic inflammatory response syndrome during hospitalization. On diagnostic imaging, acute splenic vein thrombosis was found, concurrent with pancreatitis and gastritis. The spleen showed marked enlargement and hypoechoic lacy appearances on ultrasonography, mimicking splenic torsion. On the histopathologic report, only splenic hemorrhage and congestion with large splenic vein thrombosis were identified. After splenectomy, the dog completely recovered and was discharged.
