「Concordia Case Sharing」腸息肉病例分享

A few months ago, we welcomed 8 Jai, an 11-year-old American Shorthair, to our hospital. He had a mass in the duodenum, which we confirmed through ultrasound and CT scan. Both the pet parents and Dr. Elaine were concerned, as masses in the digestive tract are usually malignant. As such, endoscopy was used to confirm Dr. Elaine’s suspicion of a benign polyp, an uncommon condition: having enough information is crucial to draw up a suitable and effective treatment plan. 

幾個月前，康迪亞醫院診治了一隻11歲的美國短毛貓——8仔。根據超聲波和CT電腦掃瞄的檢查結果，均顯示牠的十二指腸內存在腫塊。8仔的主人和Dr. Elaine 都十分擔心，由於消化道中的腫塊通常都是惡性的。幸而Dr. Elaine 使用了內窺鏡設備，替8仔進行檢查，懷疑該腫塊是不常見的腸道息肉。在診斷過程中，充足的醫療數據對醫生制定到位和有效的治療方案十分重要。

With further diagnosis, Dr. Elaine removed the polyp in surgery. Further testing also confirmed that the polyp was benign, and that the excision was complete. We are happy to report that 8 Jai is now on the right road to recovery, and can lead a normal life with his family!

基於以上的檢查結果，Dr. Elaine 最終通過手術方法替8仔切除了腸道的腫塊，而其後的化驗也證實了息肉是良性的，並且已完全地切除。我們很高興地在此與大家分享，8仔現在正走上康復之路，並可以與家人過著正常的生活！
