Plexiform vascularisation of a retropharyngeal lymph node in a cat.
Plexiform vascularisation of a retropharyngeal lymph node is described in an adult cat. The cat presented with a chronic history of inspiratory stridor and a slowly growing mass in the cranial cervical area. Clinical signs resolved after excision of the affected node. This appears to be the first clinical report of plexiform vascularisation of a retropharyngeal lymph node and its treatment in a cat.
