“…The greatest prevalence of primary lung adenocarcinoma was noted in elderly domestic European cats (Koblik, 1986;Hahn and McEntee, 1997;Nunley et al, 2015;Stacie et al, 2015), to which grouping our case also belonged. So far, only 10 cases of primary lung cancers leading to the occurrence of SSP in cats have been presented (Erin et al, 2012;Debra and Deborah, 2014;George et al, 2017) of which four were adenocarcinomas (Erin et al, 2012;George et al, 2017). In general, SP in cats is not a common finding, and to the authors' knowledge there are only three studies that have presented cases of cat pneumothorax (Erin et al, 2012;Debra and Deborah, 2014;George et al, 2017), and the rest are isolated cases.…”

“…Pneumothorax is the accumulation of gas in the pleural space followed by the collapse of the lungs and can be classified as open or closed, and as traumatic, spontaneous or iatrogenic (Elisa, 2001;Erin et al, 2012,). Traumatic pneumothorax is the most common cause of pneumothorax in dogs and probably in cats (Erin et al, 2012;Debra and Deborah, 2014). SP occurs in cases where there is no trauma in the patient history, but it remains of unclear pathogenesis, and can be primary (lung tissue is unchanged) or secondary (there is airways disease and or lung parenchyma).…”

Lung adenocarcinoma as a cause of spontaneous pneumothorax in a cat

et al. 2021

A 15-year-old indoor/outdoor female, neutered, domestic European short haired cat was presented to our clinic with a history of neck-elongation and wheezing during inspiration/expiration. The first signs of respiratory disease occurred two weeks before the clinical presentation. After taking of clinical history, clinical examination and basic laboratory tests (complete blood count, blood smear, snap Feline Immunodeficiency Virus / Feline Leukemia Virus Combo test), a lung x-ray was performed showing the presence of left lung atelectasis and pneumothorax. The primary causes of lung atelectasis were not determined. Given that the general condition of the cat was very bad, she was put in an oxygen cage, thoracocentesis was performed, but the animal's condition did not improve, and 24 hours after clinical presentation, the cat died. Autopsy revealed the presence of a tumor mass on the caudal lobe of the right lung, tumor formation in the area of trachea bifurcation and changes in the liver in the form of four round structures of different sizes. Histopathologically, the existence of primary undifferentiated lung adenocarcinoma with metastases on the liver and trachea was determined.

RESUMOO pneumotórax é a presença de gás no espaço pleural, podendo ser de origem traumática ou espontânea. O pneumotórax espontâneo primário ocorre quando não se observa causa traumática ou moléstia pulmonar subjacente e já no pneumotórax espontâneo secundário observam-se doenças de vias aéreas ou pulmonares primárias, que levam à hiperinsuflação do pulmão. Admite-se que a causa do pneumotórax espontâneo primário seja a ruptura de bolha ou cisto subpleurais. Não há relatos de pneumotórax espontâneo primário em felinos e dos poucos sobre pneumotórax espontâneo secundário, nenhum tem como afecção de base a doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica. Os sinais clínicos do pneumotórax são agudos, cursando com dispneia, taquipneia e cianose. O tratamento pode ser cirúrgico e corresponde inicialmente no alívio da dispneia por toracocentese ou adaptação de dreno torácico. O prognóstico do pneumotórax espontâneo tende a ser reservado a desfavorável. Relata-se o primeiro caso de pneumotórax espontâneo em felino gerado por doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Bronquite Crônica, Dispneia, Felinos Pulmão. SPONTANEOUS PNEUMOTHORAX SECONDARY TO CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE IN FELINEABSTRACT Pneumothorax is the presence of gas in the pleural space, and may be of traumatic or spontaneous origin. Primary spontaneous pneumothorax occurs when there is no traumatic cause or underlying lung disease, and in the secondary spontaneous pneumothorax, primary airway or pulmonary diseases, which lead to hyperinflation of the lung, are observed. It is assumed that the cause of primary spontaneous pneumothorax is a subpleural blister or cyst rupture. There are no reports of primary spontaneous pneumothorax in felines and of the few of secondary spontaneous pneumothorax, none of them is based on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The clinical signs of pneumothorax are acute, leading to dyspnea, tachypnea and cyanosis. The treatment may be surgical and initially corresponds to the relief of the
