- Abstract
Eosinophilic gastritis is a rare type of gastritis seen in cats and dogs, and it is still not completely understood. The patient was an 8-year-old Persian cat presenting with increasingly chronic vomiting. An endoscopic visualization of the stomach was performed after a physical examination, blood tests and imaging. During the endoscopic examination of the stomach, nodular pseudo-polyps diffusely disturbed in the antrum region and protruding toward the lumen were macroscopically observed. After examining the biopsy samples taken from these structures, the patient was diagnosed with eosinophilic gastritis.
