Abstract

A 2 month-old female cat, mixed breed, was referred for difficulty moving and severe enlargement of the mandible and limbs. Polyostotic cortical hyperostosis was diagnosed based on diagnostic imaging and histopathological changes of the mandible and limbs. Marked cortical bone thickening was detected on radiographs and CT scan images. The diaphyses of both radii and ulnae, together with the mandibular rami and bodies, were most severely affected. The many similarities shared with the human condition, Caffey's disease, are discussed.

Abstract

An intracranial metallic foreign body (sewing needle) was diagnosed in an 11-month-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Clinical evaluation showed drooling and chewing, but an otherwise normal neurological examination. Skull radiographs showed a metallic foreign body extending from the pharynx into the skull. A CT scan confirmed the presence of a foreign body crossing the right foramen lacerum into the brain. The needle was removed surgically with the aid of fluoroscopy. No complications were noted, except for transient right Horner's syndrome, most likely due to partial damage of the sympathetic postganglionic fibres that lie in the region of the tympanic bulla following surgery. The owner reported the dog being healthy 3 months after surgery., (© 2021 British Small Animal Veterinary Association.)
