Abstract

A five-year-old rabbit was evaluated for a 7 to 8 month history of regurgitation, weight loss, and hyporexia. Previously performed whole body radiographs, plasma biochemistry results and complete blood count revealed had no significant abnormalities. A computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a circumferential caudal esophageal thickening. The animal received supportive care until euthanasia was performed 6 weeks later. Caudal esophageal smooth muscle hypertrophy was diagnosed on necropsy. This case indicates that regurgitation can occur in rabbits and advanced imaging can investigate the underlying cause.

摘要

对一只5岁的兔子进行了评估，它有7至8个月的反流、体重减轻和食欲减退病史。此前进行的全身X光片、血浆生化检查结果和全血细胞计数均未发现明显异常。计算机断层扫描（CT）显示食管尾部有环状增厚。这只动物接受了支持性护理，直到6周后实施安乐死。尸检诊断为食管尾部平滑肌肥大。该病例表明兔子可能会出现反流，先进的影像学检查可以探究其潜在病因。
