Bilateral inflammatory polyps (IP) in cats are more common than previously thought, affecting 24% of cases. Advanced imaging is crucial for diagnosing these feline ear conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Otolaryngology
  • Feline Health

Background:

  • Feline inflammatory polyps (IP) are typically reported as solitary growths.
  • The occurrence of bilateral IP in cats may be underestimated in previous literature.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the prevalence of bilateral feline inflammatory polyps (IP).
  • To identify potential risk factors associated with bilateral IP in cats.
  • To analyze data from a 10-year period at a veterinary teaching hospital.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study of 25 cats with histologically confirmed IP.
  • Analysis of medical records from 2005-2015.
  • Keywords: "feline polyp", "ventral bulla osteotomy", "inflammatory polyp ear canal", "nasopharyngeal polyp".

Main Results:

  • 24% (6 of 25) of cats presented with bilateral IP.
  • Advanced imaging (CT) identified the second polyp in 4 of 6 bilateral cases.
  • No significant differences were found in clinical signs, URI history, complications, or recurrence between unilateral and bilateral groups.

Conclusions:

  • Bilateral feline IP occur more frequently than previously reported.
  • Advanced imaging techniques are valuable for diagnosing bilateral IP.
  • This study establishes a prevalence for bilateral IP in the feline population.
