  • Title: Intestinal sclerosis with pseudo-obstruction in three dogs.
    Author: Moore R, Carpenter J.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1984 Apr 01; 184(7):830-3. PubMed ID: 6725118.
    Abstract:
    Intestinal sclerosis causing chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction was diagnosed in 3 dogs. The pseudo-obstruction was characterized by vomiting and weight loss of 2 weeks' to 3 months' duration. A patent intestinal lumen was determined by contrast radiography and verified at surgery. Intestinal biopsy revealed diffuse atrophy, fibrosis, and mononuclear cell infiltration of the tunica muscularis. Each dog was euthanatized because of a progressive, deteriorating clinical course.
