A 6-month-old female Pekingese was euthanized due to poor progrosis after 1 month history of neurologic signs that include depression, ataxia, urination and defecation difficulty. At necropsy, no significant gross abnormalities were noted Histologically, neuronal vacuolation was noted in the brain, primarily cerebellum and occasionally in the brain stem area. Neuronal necrosis and secondary axonal swelling were also observed. Differential diagnoses were able to rule out other diseases which can induce neuronal vacuolation such as lysosomal storage disease, prion infection, and postvaccinal change.

An 8-year-old intact male Pekingese (weighing 13 kg) was presented for evaluation of chronic coughing. Thoracic radiography found a redundant tissue swelling (protruded on expiration and collapsed on inspiration) on the ventral neck just cranial to the thoracic inlet. Fluoroscopy also identified that the cranial portion of the right/left cranial lung lobe was seen to protrude through the thoracic inlet into the ventral neck on expiration. On the echocardiogram, there were no abnormal jets in all cardiac valves and no dilation in all cardiac chambers. Based on diagnostic imaging studies, the case was diagnosed as cervical lung lobe herniation.

Pectus excavatum (PE) is a ventral chest wall deformity, also known as funnel chest, sunken chest, chondrosternal depression or koilosternia. The 4 months old, 1.3 kg intact-female Pekingese dog was evaluated for acute semicoma and convulsion. The client reported that this patient have had chronic loss of appetite, intermittent dyspnea and palpable sunken breast. The other littermates did not show any abnormalities. On physical examination, cachexia (BCS 1/5), concave sternum, flatten thoracic cavity and cardiac murmur were observed. On radiographic study, the caudal sternum cave to vertebrae and narrowing thoracic cavity. The severities of thoracic deformity were evaluated by deformation indices such as-Frontosagittal index (FSI) and vertebral index (VI). Moderate to severe PE was founded by the radiological measurements.

A 6-year-old female Pekingese dog, weighing 3.85 kg was presented with regurgitation, ptyalism, weight loss and anorexia. The dog was cachexic and severely dehydrated. Physical examination of the dog confirmed upper respiratory noise, which was classified as a stridor most apparent on inspiration, respiratory effort with stenotic nares. Upper respiratory signs were thought to be caused by brachycephalic syndrome. On the lateral thoracic radiograph, the caudal one third of the esophagus was visible as a soft tissue band. CT revealed oval-shaped, soft tissue attenuating mass in size of $2.3{\times}1.0{\times}1.1cm$ arising from caudal one third of the esophagus. The mass was protruding from esophageal wall to lumen and irregular margined with heterogenous contrast enhancement. The wall of cardia and fundus was focally thickened. Gastric lymph node was enlarged with contrast enhancing. On histopathologic examination, esophageal mass was confirmed as papillary adenocarcinoma, and the gastric sample showed the same result. In human, adenocarcinoma commonly occur in esophagus and cardia, but it has not been commonly reported in veterinary medicine. This report described computed tomographic features of adenocarcinoma of the esophagocardia region in a Pekingese dog with brachycephalic syndrome.

This study was performed to establish a new parameter for estimating gestational age and predicting parturition day by ultrasonographic measurement of deep portion of telencephalic vesicle (DPTV) diameter in small dogs. Fetal head diameter (HD) and DPTV diameter were measured in 15 pregnant Pekingese bitches, from Day 15 to the parturition day, and evaluated the correlation between gestational age. HD was measured from day 29 of pregnancy to parturition day and increased from $4.9{\pm}2mm$ to $25.5{\pm}0.7mm$. Especially, from day 38 of pregnancy to parturition day, HD uniformly increased about 0.6 mm per day and was significantly and linearly relative to gestational age during this period ($r^2$ >0.99). DPTV diameter was measured from day 35 to day 60 of pregnancy and increased from $3.2{\pm}0.9mm$ to $11.5{\pm}0.7mm$. Especially from day 38 to day 60 of pregnancy, DPTV diameter uniformly increased about 1 mm per 3 days and was significantly and linearly relative to gestational age during this period ($r^2$ >0.99). In conclusion, DPTV diameter could to be a useful parameter for the estimation of gestational age and the prediction of parturition day when used alone or in combination with HD during the second half of pregnancy.

A 5-year-old Pekingese bitch was presented with a history of vaginal bleeding and copulation before 4-week. Ovarian remnant syndrome was diagnosed on the clinical changes, vaginal cytology and exploratory laparotomy. An abdominal mass was diagnosed on radiography, ultrasonography and Computed Tomography. The remnant of ovarian tissue and an abdominal mass were removed surgically under general anesthesia. Ultrasonographic examination of the removed ovarian tissue (water bath scanning) revealed three corpora lutea. The condition resolved following surgical excision of the remaining ovarian tissue and an abdominal purulent mass.

11살 수컷 페키니즈가 10일간의 발작을 주증으로 내원하였다. 내원 15일전 파행으로 지역병원에서 소염제를 처방 받았었고 10일 전 간헐적 전신발작을 시작으로 내원 2일 전에는 실조와 정신둔감이 함께 발생하였다. 혈액검사와 영상학적 검사상 특이소견은 관찰되지 않았으나, 신경계 검사상 위협반사와 동공 빛 반사가 떨어짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 내원 9시간 후 호흡곤란이 발생하였고 그 후 12시간 후 보호자의 요청으로 안락사를 실시하였다. 부검상 가로 단면에서 확장된 종양으로 인해 현저한 중심선 이동을 관찰할 수 있었다. 조직학적 분석을 통해 신경아교세포의 거짓 울타리화된 괴사와 미세혈관의 증식을 확인할 수 있었다. 면역염색 결과 종양 부위에서 GFAP, PCNA, Iba-a 에 염색된 세포가 관찰되었다. 이와 같은 결과를 바탕으로 아교모세포종으로 진단되었다. 원발성 두강내 종양은 수의학에서 흔하지 않다. 이번 증례는 페키니즈견에서 아교모세포종의 임상적, 조직학적 발견에 대한 보고이다.

12살령 중성화 수컷 페키니즈 개가 허약, 운동불내성과 2주전부터 시작한 기침을 주증으로 내원하였다. 신체검사에서 좌측 수축기성 심잡음(grade II/VI) 이 확인되었고, 심장초음파 검사에서 심낭수와 좌심방 주변 심기저부에 종괴가 관찰되었다. 심낭수천자 후에는 흉부방사선 상에서도 좌심방 옆으로 종괴가 확인되었다. 사후 부검을 통한 조직학적 검사 및 면역조직화학 염색을 통해 대동맥체 종양으로 진단되었다. 본 환축은 진단 후 내과적 치료만을 받았으며, 심낭수의 재발 없이 234일을 생존하였다.

간헐적인 기절과 운동 불내성의 주요증상을 호소하는 4살 령의 중성화된 암컷 페키니즈 개 (체중 3.6 kg)가 내원하였다. 신체검사상 지속적인 맥박 결손을 가진 아주 불규칙한 심박동(irregularly irregular heart rhythm)이 나타났다. 12 유도 표면 심전도에서는 동방결절 기능 부전군을 의미하는 간헐적인 방실 접합부 이탈박동과 함께 특이적인 동정지가 나타났다. 본 환자에 대한 심장 박동수 반응형의 양극성 심장 박동조절기(VVIR type)를 이용한 영구적 경정맥형 심박 조율시술은 우심실 내에서 실시되었다. 심장 박동기 장착 이후, 환자의 임상증상은 눈에 띠게 호전되었다. 시술이후 아직까지 기절의 증상은 더 이상 나타나지 않고 있다.
