Fused kidneys

Hope someone has seen this before. In fact, I did a search for fused kidneys and found another entry, but that cat has had a renal transplant, so not quite my patient.  This is a young cat, gradual onset, unwell, pyrexia and abdo pain.

Assessing anaesthetic risk by echo

Hi everyone, What is your approach to dogs with cardiac murmurs and anaesthesia ?
