Astrocytoma in a cat

M D Komarnisky. Can Vet J. 1985 Aug.

Abstract

The presenting signs of a mature, spayed female, domestic shorthair cat with a thalamic astrocytoma were polyuria, polydipsia and behavioral changes of several months duration, followed by pacing and depression. Dexamethasone therapy temporarily improved the cat's mental status. A diagnosis of brain tumor was confirmed by postmortem examination.
