A 6-year-old, intact female cat presented with sudden collapse. Clinical examinations indicated severe regenerative anemia and a large abdominal mass containing fluid. An exploratory laparotomy revealed a large cystic lesion at the cranial end of the right uterine horn. Ovariohysterectomy was performed, and the cat made a full recovery. The cystic lesion contained a blood clot and 102 mL of blood. Histological examination confirmed that the hemorrhagic lesion was located within the fallopian tube. The thickened uterus with severe vasodilation was histologically diagnosed as endometrial hyperplasia with congestion. This is the first reported case of hematosalpinx in a cat, a rare condition previously described in humans.
一只6岁未绝育的雌性猫突然出现虚脱。临床检查显示严重的再生性贫血和一个含有液体的巨大腹部肿块。剖腹探查发现右子宫角前端有一个大的囊性病变。进行了卵巢子宫切除术,这只猫完全康复。囊性病变内有一个血凝块和102毫升血液。组织学检查证实出血性病变位于输卵管内。子宫增厚伴有严重血管扩张,组织学诊断为子宫内膜增生伴充血。这是首例报道的猫输卵管积血病例,这种罕见病症此前仅在人类中有过描述。
