Abstract
A four month old, Domestic Short Haired female
kitten was presented to the referral hospital,
Department of Veterinary Clinical Medicine,
Madras Veterinary College, TANUVAS,
Chennai, with a history of dull, stunted growth,
hyporexia, polyuria, and distended abdomen.
Rough hair coat, dehydration and pale mucosa
were observed upon clinical examination. Plain
survey radiographs revealed renomegaly with
fluid shadow. Abdominal ultrasonography
showed bilateral enlargement of kidneys,
multiple, large anechoic areas separated by thin
septum, occupied almost 90% of renal parenchyma
and confirmed as a polycystic kidney
disease.
