The position and contour would suggest splenoazygos but can’t be sure. Bile acids are up I imagine? everythign is there for ehpss sounds like ameroid time assumign BAs are high to finish the profile.

Yes post bile acids elevated.

Yes post bile acids elevated. I am hoping this one will get referred. Owner has pet insurance so highly possible. Funny the liver is not small but I guess that would be a good thing if the shunt is to be occluded.

Cats with shunts often have

Cats with shunts often have normal liver size unlike dogs. Dogs with shunts always have microhepatica. We need to do a cat shunt study characterizing them thats for sure. So many shunts so little time lol.

Good to know. Any association

Good to know. Any association with a medullary rim sign and shunts in cats that you know of?

I believe there is but can’t

I believe there is but can’t quote numbers. It would make sense to fit with swollen kidneys in dogs with renal mineralization.
