Abstract

A 4-year-old female Fox Terrier dog (weighting 8 kg) with history of severe abdominal distention and anorexia was presented to Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Gyeongsang National University. In physical examination, grade 4/6 systolic murmur heard at the left heart base. Electrocardiography showed right ventricular enlargement (right axis deviation and deep S wave) and right atrial enlargement (P pulmonale). Diagnostic imaging studies revealed hypertrophy of right ventricle, enlargement of right atrium and tricuspid regurgitation and turbulence in the pulmonary artery in right parastenal short axis view. Based on the diagnostic findings, the dog was diagnosed as a case of valvular pulmonic stenosis.
