Hepatic myelolipoma incarcerated in a peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia in a cat

Abstract: Hepatic myelolipoma incarcerated in a peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia was diagnosed in an 11-year-old, desexed female Persian cat. The cat was initially referred for investigation of tachypnoea and dyspnoea. Peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia is a common incidental finding in cats and is usually asymptomatic. Myelolipoma is an extremely rare benign tumour, composed of extramedullary haematopoietic cells and adipose tissue. Myelolipomas are hypothesised to result from metaplastic alteration, ra… Show more

“…In human beings, myelolipomas are usually found in the adrenal gland, and are observed in middle-aged to elderly patients, affecting females more often than males (Sato et al 2007). In animals, it has only been reported in nonhuman primates (Bingham et al 1976;Narama et al 1985;Kakinuma et al 1994;Yanai et al 1996), dogs (Zimmer and Stair 1983;Spangler et al 1994;Prater et al 1998;Newman et al 2000;Tursi et al 2005;Al-Rukibat and Bani Ismail 2006;Morandi et al 2007;Ueno et al 2007; Kamiie et al 2009), domestic cats (Gourley et al 1971;Sander and Langham 1972;Schuh 1987;McCaw et al 1990;Wouda et al 2010), a wild felid (Lombard et al 1968), and some birds (Latimer and Rakich 1995;Suzuki et al 2010). In both human beings and animals, extra-adrenal myelolipomas are very rare (Kakinuma et al 1994;Takizawa et al 1995).…”

“…The rare combination of a hepatic myelolipoma incarcerated in a peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia is described in an 11-year-old desexed female Persian cat. 6 Peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia is a structural developmental anomaly in which there is communication between the pericardial sac and the abdominal cavity. It is a common incidental finding in cats and is usually asymptomatic.…”

“…Normally, the diagnosis occurs when the tumour reaches considerable proportions. In literature, cases of myelolipoma are reported mainly in the spleen of dogs, cats and ferrets but also in adrenal glands of non-human primates and in cutaneous tissue and liver of exotic birds (Sander and Langham 1972, King 1993, Kakinuma and others 1994, Spangler and others 1994, Latimer and Rakich 1995, Li and others 1996, Prater and others 1998, Al-Rukibat and Bani Ismail 2006, Wouda and others 2010, Carrillo and others 2012). Differential diagnoses for a splenic mass are benign lesions such as nodular hyperplasia, extramedullary haematopoiesis, haematoma, splenic myelolipoma and malignancies such as hemangiosarcoma, other sarcomas, round cell neoplasms and metastases.…”
