초록
An 8-year-old castrated male Korean short hair cat was referred with chronic vomiting, diarrhea, and anorexia. The cat was diagnosed with alimentary lymphoma via fine needle aspiration. Three weeks lat-er, he was presented again with anorexia. Hepatomegaly and hyperechoic change in the liver parenchyma were observed. Computed tomography while awake was performed and revealed hypoattenuation of the hepatic parenchyma. The cat was tentatively diagnosed with feline hepatic lipidosis secondary to ali-mentary lymphoma. In the feline patient with lymphoma, hepatomegaly is important to differentiate hep-atic lipidosis from hepatic infiltration of lymphoma on liver. In the present case, fatty infiltration of the liver was identified via non-invasive, rapid, and convenient computed tomography examination in an awake cat with a lymphoma.

The cat was tentatively diagnosed with feline hepatic lipidosis secondary to ali-mentary lymphoma. In the feline patient with lymphoma, hepatomegaly is important to differentiate hep-atic lipidosis from hepatic infiltration of lymphoma on liver. In the present case, fatty infiltration of the liver was identified via non-invasive, rapid, and convenient computed tomography examination in an awake cat with a lymphoma.
