“…Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), a fetal blood vessel between pulmonary artery and aorta that has to be closed in hours right after birth triggered by first breath of life, may result life threatening heart failure or even sudden death depend on size of the ductus [1] . PDA has been reported as a most common congenital heart defect in dogs and cats, however there is limited information on diagnostic procedure of PDA by use of three-dimensional computed tomography angiography (3D-CTA) in cats [1,2] .…”

“…Although surgical ligation is associated with a higher rate of major intraoperative complication, both procedures have comparable rate of survival to hospital discharge in dogs (17). Perioperative or intraoperative complication rate of surgical ligation ranges from 15.1 to 26.7% in cats (18,19). Intraoperative hemorrhage is the most common complication and occurs in 6.1 to 13.3% of feline patients (18,19).…”

Life-Threatening Hemorrhage During Patent Ductus Arteriosus Ligation in a Cat: Xenotransfusion With Canine Blood

A 13-month-old Sphynx cat was referred for patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) ligation. A left thoracotomy was performed and the PDA was efficiently ligated. Immediately after chest tube placement, it presented extensive intrathoracic bleeding from the caudal intercostal artery. In view of the absolute necessity of a blood transfusion and given that compatible feline blood was not available, xenotransfusion of canine blood was administered to the cat and resulted in a positive outcome.

“…Congenital heart defects in cats include ventricular septal defect (VSD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), subaortic stenosis (SAS), tetralogy of Fallot (a combination of pulmonary artery stenosis, intraventricular septal defect, right ventricular hypertrophy and an overriding aorta), dysplasia of the mitral or tricuspid valve, and diaphragmatic pericardial hernia. No breed predisposition has been reported for these defects (1,8,13,15). Acquired diseases are much more common in cats.…”

SummaryThe survey included 514 cats brought to the Department of Small Animals within 5 years. The cats were examined cardiologically (clinical examination, echocardiography and electrocardiographic examination) and then divided into cats with cardiac changes and cats with problems other than heart disease. The study was designed to show the most common cardiac disease in cats and the breeds represented. The study found that the most prevalent cardiac diseases in cats were cardiomyopathies, which were found in 16% of all cats examined, while congenital malformations were found in 8% of the cats. Cats of 19 different breeds were represented, most of which were European Shorthair cats and Maine Coons. The European Shorthair breed had the largest number of healthy cats (40.9% of all healthy cats) as well as the largest number of cats with congenital heart disease (35.9% of all cats with congenital heart disease) and the largest number of cats with cardiomyopathies (50.6% of all cats with cardiomyopathies).
