초록

3년령 말티즈 개(2.5Kg)가 갑작스런 심잡음, 의기소침, 식욕결핍으로 내원하였다. 혈액검사상에서 백혈구증가증과 함께 발열이 관찰되었으며 심장청진시 좌측 심첨부에서 VI/VI holosystolic murmurs가 청진되었다. 심전도에서 좌심실의 종대소견이 보였다. 진단방사선상에서 좌심방과 좌심실의 확장, 이첨판 판막의 증식이 보였으며, 이로 인해 이첨판의 역류가 관찰되었다. 이러한 임상증상과 검사 결과를 바탕으로, 본 증례는 감염성 심내막염에 의한 증식성 이첨판 역류증이라 진단하였다. 환자는 광범위 항생제, 이뇨제, 항혈전제로 치료하였다.

A 3-year-old intact female Maltese dog (2.5 kg of body weight) with the primary complaint of sudden onset of heart murmur, depression and anorexia was referred to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital of Kangwon National University. The dog was febrile with marked leukocytosis and left apical VI/VI holosystolic murmurs. The electrocardiogram implied the left ventricular enlargement. Diagnostic imaging studies revealed left atrial and ventricular dilation, severe vegetations on mitral valvular cusps with concurrent mitral regurgitation. Based on findings from clinical and diagnostic investigation, the case was diagnosed as vegetative mitral valvular regurgitation caused by infective endocarditis. The dog was successfully treated with broad spectrum antibiotics, diuretics, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor and antithrombotics.
