History:The patient presented to the referring veterinarian with a 7-month history of ill-thrift and chronic diarrhea. Histologic assessment of endoscopic duodenal biopsy samples revealed mild, diffuse, chronic, lymphoplasmacytic, and eosinophilic enteritis with villus atrophy, prompting an exploratory celiotomy 4 days later.
Gross Lesions:Multifocally scattered across the serosal surface of the ventral colon and transverse colon were innumerable, raised, moderately well-demarcated, firm, white nodules with mural infiltration. The transverse colon also had associated segmental luminal restriction.
