A 17-year-old, castrated male Maltese was presented with chronic polyphagia and a 2-week history of tenesmus, diarrhea, hematochezia, weight loss, and ribbon-like feces. Pneumatosis coli was diagnosed by abdominal radiography. Concurrent hyperadrenocorticism was suspected. The clinical signs of colorectal disease resolved within 2 days of initiating a lowresidue diet and oral metronidazole. Pneumatosis coli should be considered as a differential diagnosis for colorectal disease in dogs.
一只17岁、已去势的雄性马尔济斯犬出现慢性多食，伴有2周的里急后重、腹泻、便血、体重减轻及带状粪便病史。通过腹部X线摄影诊断为结肠积气。怀疑同时存在肾上腺皮质功能亢进。在开始低渣饮食和口服甲硝唑后2天内，结肠直肠疾病的临床症状得到缓解。结肠积气应被视为犬结肠直肠疾病的鉴别诊断之一。
