Abstract

A 6-month-old female Malinois dog was presented with a history of vomiting, anorexia, and abdominal discomfort. During the abdominal examination, several foreign bodies were palpated in the stomach. Abdominal radiographs revealed radiolucent linear foreign bodies in the stomach. The physical examination and radiographic findings were suggestive of pyloric obstruction. Diagnosis of jejunal intussusception was made during the exploratory celiotomy. The manual reduction of intussusception and removal of the foreign bodies in the stomach and small intestine were performed at surgery. The recovery was uneventful and the dog had no further clinical signs 4 months post-operatively.
