“…Intussusception can be detected at any age or breed of dogs; however, some breeds such as German Shepherds are more susceptible. This condition is infrequently seen in cats [6,10]. We describe here a case of intussusception in a 1-yearold, male mongrel dog.…”

“…Discussion Intussusceptions are defined as a telescoping of one portion of the intestines (intussusceptum) into other portions of the intestinal tract (intusscepiens) (Levitt and Bauer, 1992). Reported causes of intussusceptions in various species include gastrointestinal parasites, gastroenteritis of various etiologies, intestinal masses or neoplasms, abdominal surgery, and may also be idiopathic (Applewhite et al, 2001;Burkitt et al, 2009). The underlyling cause for the intussuception was not identified in the case reported in this manuscript.…”

An approximately four-year-old male castrated guinea pig (Cavia porcellus) was presented for painful defecation with a 24-hour history of hyporexia and intermittent episodes of rolling behavior. Upon presentation the patient was quiet, alert, and responsive, and mildly hypothermic. Abdominal palpation revealed an approximately 2-cm long oblong mass within the caudal abdomen. Abdominal radiographs revealed gastric dilation without volvulus and a peritoneal mass effect. The patient was euthanized following gastric reflux of brown malodorous fluid from his nares and oral cavity. A necropsy was performed and revealed a jejuno-jejunal intussusception causing mechanical gastrointestinal ileus, and gastric dilatation without volvulus. While non-obstructive gastrointestinal stasis is common and obstructive ileus is uncommon in guinea pigs, this report shows that intestinal intussusception is a differential in guinea pigs with ileus and gastric dilatation.

ABSTRACT:In human medicine, the association between intussusceptions and inflammatory bowel disease is well known, even if referred to only in case reports or a small series of patients. The exact cause of intussusceptions, in general, is unknown; however, any lesion in the bowel wall or irritant in the lumen that alters the normal peristaltic pattern may initiate invagination. In Crohn's disease the lead point may be dysrhytmic contractions secondary to the on-going inflammatory process of a thickened, inflamed segment of bowel wall. In veterinary medicine, the information available related to the association of intussusceptions and inflammatory bowel disease is limited. The present study is the first reported case of a dog in which ileocolic intussusception and histiocytic ulcerative colitis appear to be associated. Moreover, this is also the first description of the involvement of the caecum in canine histiocytic ulcerative colitis. Herein, we document a condition previously reported in humans with inflammatory bowel disease, and we believe that this work contributes to identifying the similarities between human and canine inflammatory bowel disease.
