Feline alimentary lymphoma
Alimentary lymphoma - and its particular diagnostic challenges As discussed in part 1, alimentary lymphoma (AL) in cats can be considered clinically as low-grade (LGAL), intermediate- or high-grade (I/HGAL) or, the less commonly identified, large granular lym-phocyte lymphoma (LGLL). These diseases differ in clinical presenta-tion, techniques required for diagnosis, response to treatment and ...
Abstract Practical relevance Accurate diagnosis of the distinct subtypes of alimentary lymphoma (AL) that occur in cats is important as there are major differences between them in clinical presentation, treatment and prognosis. Unlike intermediate- and high-grade alimentary lymphoma (I/HGAL) and large granular lymphocyte lymphoma (LGLL), which can often be diagnosed by aspiration cytology ...

Diagnosis and Treatment of Feline Alimentary Lymphomas
Abstract Any old cat with weight loss and chronic gastrointestinal signs should be evaluated thoroughly for systemic illnesses including alimentary lymphoma . Today we see more alimentary form lymphomas in cats than we saw before because of decreased incidences of FeLV infection and anterior mediastinal lymphomas , and probably because we see more aged cats in the clinics. Feline alimentary ...
