Abstract

A 10-month-old intact male Scottish Fold was presented with cardiomegaly. The cat showed exercise intolerance after birth. Radiographs showed cardiomegaly with bulging of the main pulmonary artery and dilation of pulmonary arteries. Echocardiogram revealed abnormally arisen aortic root toward right ventricle with left-to-right shunted perimembraneous ventricular septal defect located underneath the aortic root. Based on imaging studies, the cat was diagnosed as subaortic type of double outlet right ventricle (DORV) without concurrent abnormalities.
