Abstract

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