A 3.5-year-old, neutered male pit bull dog was euthanized following an approximately 1-year history of intractable diarrhea and weight loss of undetermined cause. At necropsy, the dog was emaciated. The ratio of total intestinal length (duodenum to rectum) to crown-to-rump length was 2.5, in contrast to an average of 5.3 (range, 3.7-6.1) in 10 control dogs examined at necropsy. There was diffuse dilation of the intestinal lumen, consistent with congenital intestinal hypoplasia resulting in short-bowel syndrome. Histologically, the intestinal mucosal was hyperplastic, further supporting the diagnosis of short-bowel syndrome. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first case of this condition in the veterinary literature.
一只3.5岁已绝育的雄性比特斗牛犬，在经历了约1年原因不明的顽固性腹泻和体重减轻后实施了安乐死。尸检时，这只狗消瘦。总肠长（十二指肠至直肠）与顶臀长的比值为2.5，相比之下，在尸检的10只对照犬中，该比值平均为5.3（范围为3.7 - 6.1）。肠腔弥漫性扩张，符合先天性肠道发育不全导致短肠综合征。组织学上，肠黏膜增生，进一步支持短肠综合征的诊断。据作者所知，这是兽医文献中该病症的首例病例。
