A 9-month-old Holstein heifer with a history of severely poor growth presented with diarrhoea. On physical examination, a metallic pinging sound was heard on the simultaneous percussion and auscultation of the left trunk. On the cranial abdominal radiography, the contour of a gas-filled balloon-like abomasum wall was delineated, which elevated to the dorsal abdomen. Radiopaque sand at the bottom of the abomasum had been pulled up caudodorsally by the gas-filled abomasum. After surgery, the gas-filled balloon-like appearance of the abomasum wall disappeared and the radiopaque sand was located in the normal position. To our knowledge, no reports on a displaced abomasum on plain radiographs are available. The radiographic findings described herein are characteristic imaging findings of a displaced abomasum. Abdominal radiography could be a new option as an auxiliary diagnostic approach for a displaced abomasum.
一头9个月大的荷斯坦小母牛，有严重生长发育不良史，出现腹泻症状。体格检查时，在左侧躯干同时进行叩诊和听诊可听到金属样叩击音。在腹部 cranial 位X线片上，可勾勒出充满气体的气球样皱胃壁轮廓，其向背侧腹部抬高。皱胃底部的不透X线的沙子被充满气体的皱胃向尾背侧拉起。手术后，皱胃壁的气球样充气外观消失，不透X线的沙子位于正常位置。据我们所知，尚无关于皱胃移位在平片上表现的报道。本文所述的影像学表现是皱胃移位的特征性影像学表现。腹部X线摄影可能成为皱胃移位辅助诊断的新选择。
