An 11-year-old male neutered domestic shorthair cat was presented for investigation of weight loss and inappetence. On physical examination there was palpable enlargement and thickening of many bones, and this finding was confirmed radiographically. PROPOSED DIAGNOSIS: Based on clinical, radiological and histopathological findings, a polyostotic bone disease, best described as generalised idiopathic hyperostosis, was diagnosed. This condition has not been reported in cats previously. Canine and human diseases with similarities to this presentation are discussed.
一只11岁已绝育的雄性家养短毛猫因体重减轻和食欲不振前来接受检查。体格检查时发现许多骨骼可触及肿大和增厚,影像学检查证实了这一发现。拟诊:根据临床、放射学和组织病理学检查结果,诊断为多骨型骨病,最恰当的描述为全身性特发性骨质增生。此前猫类中尚未有这种病症的报道。文中还讨论了与该病症表现相似的犬类和人类疾病。
