A retrospective study was performed to investigate the frequency of identification and characteristics of oesophageal disease in cats, including assessment of the utility of diagnostic techniques and clinical outcome. Thirty-three cats met the inclusion criteria, giving an in-clinic frequency of 33/2894 (approximately 1%) of feline referral cases. Vomiting and/or regurgitation were the most common presenting signs described, although a number of cats (6/33) showed neither. Useful diagnostic modalities included plain radiography, fluoroscopy, barium radiography and endoscopy. A wide range of diseases was reported including congenital disease, oesophagitis, foreign body obstruction, neoplasia, extraluminal compression and hypomotility disorder. Five of six cats with acquired oesophageal strictures had recently received doxycycline per os.
进行了一项回顾性研究，以调查猫食管疾病的确诊频率及特征，包括评估诊断技术的效用和临床结果。33只猫符合纳入标准，在猫转诊病例中，门诊确诊频率为33/2894（约1%）。呕吐和/或反流是最常见的症状描述，不过有一些猫（6/33）并无这些症状。有用的诊断方法包括X线平片、荧光镜检查、钡剂造影和内窥镜检查。报告的疾病种类繁多，包括先天性疾病、食管炎、异物梗阻、肿瘤、管腔外压迫和动力不足障碍。6只获得性食管狭窄的猫中有5只最近口服了强力霉素。
