Snippet: Half of the D. immitis seropositive cats (n=24) were further submitted to thoracic radiographies and echocardiography. Of them, lung radiographic changes compatible with heartworm were present in 79.2% of the cats (bronchial pattern, unstructured interstitial pattern, vascular pattern with enlargement of pulmonary arteries, lung hyperinflation) but no abnormalities were present in the cardiac silhouette in any of the animals. Radiographic abnorma.....
Document: Half of the D. immitis seropositive cats (n=24) were further submitted to thoracic radiographies and echocardiography. Of them, lung radiographic changes compatible with heartworm were present in 79.2% of the cats (bronchial pattern, unstructured interstitial pattern, vascular pattern with enlargement of pulmonary arteries, lung hyperinflation) but no abnormalities were present in the cardiac silhouette in any of the animals. Radiographic abnormalities were displayed in 100% of symptomatic cats and 68.7% of the asymptomatic cats (P<0.05). Presence of adult worms was observed by echography in 6.25% (n=3) of the cats; of them, 2 were asymptomatic and 1 presented normal thoracic radiographies. One cat was indoor, one cat was outdoor and one cat was indoor/outdoor.
