Summary

A 10-year-old cat with renal adenoma experienced weight loss and appetite decrease. Surgical removal of the kidney tumor led to improvement, but a distinct lung cancer was found later.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Renal adenomas are benign epithelial tumors of the kidney.
  • Neoplasms in domestic animals can present diagnostic challenges.

Observation:

  • A 10-year-old feline patient presented with clinical signs of decreased appetite and weight loss.
  • Diagnostic imaging and subsequent histopathology confirmed a renal adenoma.

Findings:

  • Surgical nephrectomy was performed, leading to initial clinical improvement.
  • Seven months post-surgery, the cat experienced mortality, with necropsy revealing pulmonary papillary adenocarcinoma.
  • Histopathological analysis indicated the pulmonary neoplasm was distinct from the primary renal tumor.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of thorough post-operative monitoring in veterinary oncology.
  • The distinct nature of the renal and pulmonary neoplasms suggests separate oncogenic events.
  • Further research into feline neoplasia and potential co-existing tumors is warranted.
