A 12-year-old spayed female Yorkshire Terrier with intermittent vomiting was diagnosed with regional granulomatous enteritis through histopathological examination. On ultrasonography and computed tomography, a focal thickened duodenal wall showed a mass-like appearance with indistinct wall layers. Marked uptake of (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose was observed from the mass on positron emission tomography-computed tomography. Regional granulomatous enteritis is a rare form of inflammatory bowel disease and may have imaging features similar to intestinal tumors. This is the first study describing the diagnostic imaging features of ultrasonography, computed tomography and positron emission tomography-computed tomography for regional granulomatous enteritis in a dog.
一只12岁已绝育的雌性约克夏梗犬，伴有间歇性呕吐，经组织病理学检查诊断为局部肉芽肿性肠炎。在超声检查和计算机断层扫描中，十二指肠壁局灶性增厚呈现出肿块样外观，壁层不清晰。在正电子发射断层扫描 - 计算机断层扫描中，该肿块显示出明显的（18）F - 氟脱氧葡萄糖摄取。局部肉芽肿性肠炎是炎症性肠病的一种罕见形式，可能具有与肠道肿瘤相似的影像学特征。这是第一项描述犬局部肉芽肿性肠炎的超声、计算机断层扫描和正电子发射断层扫描 - 计算机断层扫描诊断影像学特征的研究。
