Cat ascites

Sonopath Forum

  • 12 year old cat
  • Vomiting, inappetance
  • I think there is chronic gallbladder/pancreas disease and cystic liver masses 
  • Now with lymphadenopathy, effusion (blood tinged) and nodular omentum, splenomegaly
  • Neoplasia vs severe inflammation, cytology of lymph nodes, spleen and fluid pending
  • Can you see where this may have originated from?
