Abstract

A 10-year-old spayed female Yorkshire terrier presented with vomiting, and anorexia. Obstructive choledocholith with concurrent pancreatitis and hepatorenal syndrome was diagnosed based on analyses of the blood profiles, abdominal radiographs, ultrasonography and CT. Choledoliths were removed from the common bile duct, yet the patient died suddenly 10 days after surgery. Recurrent choledolithiasis has not been reported in a cholecystectomized dog and this report focuses on the imaging features of ultrasonography and CT of recurrent choledoliths.

10년령의 중성화 암컷 요크셔 테리어가 구토와 식욕부진으로 내원하였다. 신체검사, 혈액검사 및 복부 방사선 초음파검사와 컴퓨터단층촬영 검사 결과 췌장염, 간신증후군을 동반한 폐쇄성 총담관결석으로 진단되었다. 수술적으로 총담관결적을 제거하였으나, 10일 후 사망하였다. 본 증례를 통하여 담낭절제술을 한 환자에서 재발성 담관 결석, 췌장염과 같은 합병증에 대한 정기적인 모니터링이 필요하고, 진단 및 수술에 대한 정확한 평가를 위해 CT가 유용함을 알수 있었다.
