Abstract

A 2-year-old, domestic short hair cat presented because of a 2-year history of chronic nasal discharge and chronic otitis. Examination of the oral cavity revealed a mass in the nasopharynx. For further examination, computed tomography (CT) was performed and large polyp was revealed on the nasopharyngeal area. Traction removal of the polyp was performed using a spay hook. After removal of the mass, Horner's syndrome was developed but resolved spontaneously within 14 days.

2살령, 단모종의 집고양이가 2년 동안 만성 중이염과 콧물증상을 보였다. 구강 검사시 코인두에 종괴가 발견 되었다. 추가적인 검사를 위해, 컴퓨터 단층촬영술을 시행하였고 코인두 부분에서 큰 폴립이 발견되었다. Spay hook을 이용하여 폴립의 당김제거술을 수행하였다. 종괴를 제거한 후, 호르너증후군이 나타났으나 14일 이내에 자발적으로 해소되었다.
