Suffering in Silence: approach to feline chronic triaditis with Dr Fabio Procoli

Join ISFM and IDEXX for a free webinar on feline triaditis. Feline triaditis describes a syndrome characterised by the concurrent presence of pancreatitis, cholangitis and chronic enteropathy. Its prevalence varies, but it is reported in up to 30% to 50% of cats diagnosed with pancreatitis and inflammatory liver disease. Whilst definitive diagnosis requires histologic confirmation of inflammation in each organ, this may not be always possible. In addition, clinical suspicion can be challenging as clinical signs vary with each individual case and are often vague, a-specific and overlapping with other diseases increasing the risk of this syndrome being overlooked and appropriate management being delayed. The speaker will review the pathophysiology of this disease, discuss a practical diagnostic approach and ultimately a comprehensive evidence based treatment strategy with the help of real case examples. Learning Outcomes: Understand the pathophysiology of this complex yet prevalent clinical syndrome Learn the importance of a step wise logical diagnostic approach Learn the diagnostic performance and pitfalls of available diagnostic tests Learn a multimodal patient centred treatment approach to maximise patient welfare and outcome.
