An 8‐year‐old mixed breed dog, was referred for lethargy, abdominal discomfort, hematemesis, and melena. Abdominal ultrasound revealed mineralization of the “right splenic vein” with collateral spiraling and a suspected splenic duplication. Computed tomography confirmed the duplication along with torsion of the splenic pedicle. Exploratory laparotomy confirmed the splenic torsion associated with congestion of the gastrointestinal vessels, indicative of a chronic onset of secondary regional splenic vein hypertension.

A 2‐year‐old female American Akita was referred for CT of the pelvis and hindlimbs due to a left hindlimb lameness after a left total hip replacement. Referral radiographs and CT images demonstrated amorphous soft‐tissue and mineral opacities surrounding the proximal femur and the prosthetic stem, consistent with the “cloud sign” reported as a characteristic of metallosis in humans. Dorsomedial displacement of the prosthetic head, multiple foci of geographic osteolysis alongside the “cloud sign”, presumed pseudotumor lesions, and medial iliac lymphadenopathy were also identified with CT. Metallosis was confirmed based on ultrasound‐guided cytology, revision surgery, and histopathology.

A two-year-old, intact female, domestic fawn-colored dwarf lop rabbit was presented with apathy and anorexia. Clinical examination revealed hypothermia, tachycardia, and abdominal pain. Routine hematology, biochemistry, radiographic and ultrasonographic examinations were performed. Radiographic evaluation demonstrated pneumoperitoneum, generalized small intestinal distention and marked focal dilation of the descending colon by amorphous and partially mineralized material. Ultrasonography confirmed the presence of free gas along with abdominal effusion. Exploratory laparotomy revealed focal perforation of the descending colon associated with mural abscess formation containing fecal material and pus. The severity of the lesions and multiple adhesions to adjacent organs (urinary bladder and uterus) led to the decision for intraoperative euthanasia. This case report describes clinical, imaging and surgical findings of pneumoperitoneum related to septic peritonitis secondary to colonic perforation in a domestic rabbit.
