An Abyssinian cat presented with epistaxis, melaena and retinal vascular changes. Plasma protein levels were markedly elevated and a monoclonal gammopathy was present on serum protein electrophoresis. Based on these laboratory findings, hyperviscosity syndrome was assumed to be responsible for the clinical signs. The cat responded initially to fluid therapy, but relapsed and then developed unilateral exophthalmia. The animal was euthanased and an extramedullary plasmacytoma of the right orbit was diagnosed at postmortem examination.
一只阿比西尼亚猫出现鼻出血、黑便和视网膜血管变化。血浆蛋白水平显著升高，血清蛋白电泳显示存在单克隆丙种球蛋白病。基于这些实验室检查结果，推测高黏滞综合征是导致临床症状的原因。这只猫最初对液体疗法有反应，但病情复发，随后出现单侧眼球突出。该动物实施了安乐死，尸检诊断为右眼眶髓外浆细胞瘤。
