A 2-month-old Shiba Inu was presented to an emergency veterinary clinic with decreased activity and was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension secondary to a ventricular septal defect. The dog was referred to the TUAT Veterinary Medical Center for further evaluation. During treatment, a diverticulum was incidentally identified at the apex of the left ventricle. While the diverticulum caused no clinical symptoms, a cardiac synchronous computed tomography (CT) scan was performed to accurately assess its anatomical location and size. This case highlights the value of advanced imaging techniques in diagnosing complex congenital cardiac anomalies.
一只2个月大的柴犬因活动减少被送至一家急诊兽医诊所,被诊断为继发于室间隔缺损的肺动脉高压。这只狗被转诊至东京农业大学兽医医学中心作进一步评估。在治疗过程中,偶然在左心室心尖处发现一个憩室。虽然该憩室未引起临床症状,但仍进行了心脏同步计算机断层扫描(CT)以准确评估其解剖位置和大小。该病例突出了先进成像技术在诊断复杂先天性心脏异常中的价值。
