is this kidney in the abessinean cat normal or to dense in the center/pelvis -amyloidosis?


hi out there – 

I have a seven year old male Abessinian cat with a high SDMA (IDEXX 23µg/dl) and a CREA of 211µmol/l , UREA and Phos normal; he trinks more and looses some weigth, but is in a good mood and is eating well;

do you see any singn on the ulttrasound poictures and on the videos of amyloidosis, – is the “dense” center of the kidneys normal or suspicious?

thanks a lot!

it is my – the vets cat…

  1. Im seeing thickened cortices,

    Im seeing thickened cortices, microinfarcts, trace pyelectasia, and irregular contour fits more with interstitial nephrosis but you can fna the renal cortex and ask for special staining I think congo red not sure for amyloid. Amyloid dumps protein as well so need significant proteinuria

    • thank you very much for your

      thank you very much for your comment – first I will make a urine analysis to look for proteinuria
