Hepatic Cyst

Sonopath Forum

Black jack is a 12 year old DSH that belongs to a long time client that moved out of state. She drove in for me to evaluate Blackjack. I did lab work and abdominal x-rays. The labs were all normal. The abdominal x-rays were WNL except for what I interpreted as hepatomegally. The chest x-rays were WNL

Black Jack recently experienced an episode of LUTD but seems to be doing well now. Labs run at Banfield indicated a non regenerative anemia with a HCT around 20. My labs indicated a HCT of 46.

I am posting 2 separate sets of cines/1 still .jpg.

I am posting 2 separate sets of cines/1 still .jpg.

The first cine is the bladder in transverse view. I was wondering if the outpocketing of the bladder wall on the ventral surface of the bladder is a dilated ureter coming into the bladder. Seems like I never paid much attention to ureters coming in from a transverse orientation. If what I am seeing is not a ureter- then what is this.

Second set of Cines is the liver. When I first started looking I thought I was looking at the gallbladder. I am posting 1 video with what is the gallbladder. This appears to me to be a very large hepatic cyst. RI/RO would be cystic fluid, purulent material (no indication of this on the CBC and no fever). This could also be a hematoma. If that is a hematoma could that have been the cause of the anemia seen at Banfield.

Any feedback would be appreciated.
