of the large distended, gas-filled structures were emphysematous pyometra, gastric distension-volvulus (GDV), or severe mechanical ileus. The smaller gas-filled structure was most likely a part of the emphysematous pyometra or mechanical ileus
Emphysematous changes consolidating into subpleural blebs were observed along the margins of all lung lobes, with the ventral margins of the left cranial, right cranial, and right middle lung lobes most affected. Partial lobectomies of the ventral aspects of
radiographic diagnosis is emphysematous cystitis with a mass in the caudal aspect of the urinary bladder and probable urethral thickening. Figure 2— Same radiographic views as in Figure 1 . A large volume of gas (white asterisk) is seen in the cranial

considerations for the constellation of findings were ruminal perforation and septic peritonitis, secondary to severe progressive gastrointestinal stasis and emphysematous rumenitis. Figure 3 Follow-up left (A) and right (B) lateral abdominal radiographic

surgery were performed. The right caudal lung lobe was diffusely emphysematous and had a large bulla ( Figure 4 ). The other lung lobes appeared grossly normal. A right caudal lung lobectomy and placement of a thoracic tube were performed. The dog
, sharply marginated fragment displaced slightly caudodistally ( Figure 2 ). Soft tissue swelling and an emphysematous tract leading from the skin wound toward the elbow joint are visible. An additional flexed proximocaudal-distocaudal radiographic view
been proposed to explain the vesicular gas radiographic pattern, including incomplete lobar consolidation following acute torsion associated with the presence of air trapped within the alveoli, formation of emphysematous bullae as the result of
of the diaphragm. Differential diagnoses include congenital lobar emphysema, pulmonary and bronchogenic cysts, pulmonary blebs, and emphysematous bullae. Figure 2— Same radiographic images as in Figure 1 . Multiple rounded, multilobulated
