Metal projectile injuries in cats: review of 65 cases (2012–2014)

The objective of this study was to compare the prevalence of different types of injuries caused by various types of projectiles amongst urban, suburban and rural cats of different ages in order to predict the type of injury sustained. For the period 1 January 2012 to 30 April 2014, the medical records of cats with metal projectile injuries (PIs) were searched from the archive of the university’s small animal diagnostic imaging centre. Age, sex, owner address, admission during a weekend or on a working day, month of admission, projectile position (head and neck ; thoracic region ; abdominal region, including lumbosacral spine ; forelimbs ; and hindlimbs, including tail), number of projectiles, presence of a wound and fracture related to the projectile, and the type of projectile were recorded for each cat. Sixty-five cats with PIs were admitted during the defined period. In 38.5% of cats the projectiles found upon radiograph were incidental findings. The frequency of PIs peaked in March. Airgun projectiles were found in 80.0% of the cats. PIs in two or more body regions were found in 29.2% of the cats. Among the cats that had only been shot in one body region, the projectile was most frequently found in the abdominal region, including the lumbosacral spine (41.3%). Conclusions and relevance: These results might prompt clinicians to evaluate closely and screen for feline PIs in emergency situations.
