Yetişkin Bir Kedide Primer Hipotroidizm

Öz

Bu olgunun materyalini aynı miktarda günlük mama verilmesine rağmen kilo artışı meydana gelen 10 yaşındaki melez ırkı dişi kedi oluşturdu. Klinik muayene, anamnez, laboratuar sonuçları ve troid paneli parametrelerinin sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi sonucunda kedilerde nadir görülen hipotroid hastalığı belirlendi. Tedavisinde levotroksin kullanıldı ve 1,5 ay sonra kontrol değerlerinde parametreler normal aralıklar arasında elde edildi. Sonuç olarak son yıllarda önceki yıllara göre kedilerde hipotroid olabileceği görüşü veteriner endokrinolojisinde daha çok önem kazanmıştır.
