摘要
Although real-time ultrasonography is feasible in awake cats, cats are frequently anesthetized with propofol, if they are uncooperative or during perioperative ultrasonographic examinations. Propofol induces hypotension in cats and may cause venous vasodilation that redistributes blood volume in abdominal organs and organomegaly. In this paper, ultrasonographic adrenal measurements are compared before and during intravenous propofol anesthesia in healthy cats. No significant effect of propofol anesthesia on adrenal size was found, and the observed differences were small and clinically irrelevant. Therefore, it can be concluded that propofol anesthesia does not prevent ultrasonographic diagnosis of adrenomegaly.
