Triaditis in Cats: A Multifaceted Syndrome or a Convenient Label?

Abstract:
The term "triaditis" represents concurrent inflammatory diseases of the pancreas, hepatobiliary system, and small intestines in cats. This combination of inflammatory disorders appears to be clinically prevalent, and their co-existence may influence diagnostic or therapeutic strategies. The exact origin of the term triaditis in veterinary medicine is undetermined, but some of the earliest references to its potential existence were noted in the 1980s and 1990s. Despite the long-standing recognition of concurrent digestive-associated inflammatory disease in cats ('triaditis'), it is unknown whether this reflects a causative or associative relationship.
