– 10 month old FS Labrador Retriever with a 6 week history of chronic intermittent vomting and weight loss; she is otherwise happy and eating

– vomits both stomach bile and food

– bloodwork unremarkable; fecal testing negative; x-rays normal (esopahagus normal)

– ultrasound showed a thickened stomach wall as you scanned toward the pyrloric antrum (thickened submucosa and muscularis) but fundus normal

– could not see evidence for a foreign body but still worried that this may be possible due age and breed

– enlarged jejunal LN’s but long and skinny and is a young dog so may be normal?

– duodenum and rest of SI tract looked normal in wall layering and thickness

What do you think of this stomach layering in such a young dog? Looks like a candidate for a full thickness biopsy?

I have a couple of clips of what I think is the pylorus taken from the right lateral side last intercostal spaces but the file is over 20MB and will not load. I can try e-mailing these direct to Sonopath. Thanks
