Pansteatitis is caused by the consumption of high levels of unsaturated fatty acids and/or the insufficient intake of vitamin E, leading to inflammation of adipose tissue. This disease has been related to fish-based diets. However, non-conventional diets must also be considered. The authors present case records of two cats with pansteatitis, for which diet consisted mostly of pig's brain, comparing them with eight cases of disease in cats eating mainly oily fish. Cats fed pig's brain did not show clinical signs, while cats eating oily fish presented inappetence, depression, reluctance to move and subcutaneous nodules painful on palpation. Cats eating pig's brain did not show any change in blood parameters, while cats fed oily fish presented leukocytosis and anaemia. Histological examination confirmed pansteatitis in all cats, independently of the diet. All animals except one of the cats eating oily fish recovered after medical treatment and change of the feeding regime.
胰腺周围炎是由摄入大量不饱和脂肪酸和/或维生素E摄入不足引起的，导致脂肪组织发炎。这种疾病与以鱼类为主的饮食有关。然而，非传统饮食也必须加以考虑。作者介绍了两只患有胰腺周围炎的猫的病例记录，它们的饮食主要是猪脑，并将其与八例主要食用油性鱼类的猫的病例进行了比较。喂食猪脑的猫没有出现临床症状，而食用油性鱼类的猫则出现食欲不振、抑郁、不愿活动以及触诊时疼痛的皮下结节。喂食猪脑的猫血液参数没有任何变化，而喂食油性鱼类的猫出现白细胞增多和贫血。组织学检查证实所有猫都患有胰腺周围炎，与饮食无关。除了一只食用油性鱼类的猫之外，所有动物在接受治疗和改变喂养方式后都康复了。
