Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease is a chronic gastrointestinal condition in cats that shares significant clinical overlap with low-grade intestinal lymphoma. The treatment for severe IBD is largely the same as for low-grade intestinal lymphoma: prednisolone and chlorambucil.
Key Facts
- Symptoms overlap heavily with low-grade intestinal lymphoma: weight-loss, vomiting, diarrhea
- Distinguishing IBD from lymphoma requires tissue biopsy
- Treatment overlaps significantly with low-grade lymphoma protocols
- Cats on dry-food-only diets may be more prone to chronic GI issues
- Species: cats primarily discussed, but dogs also affected
