An adult female domestic shorthair cat was evaluated for chronic upper
respiratory disease
and vomiting. A diagnosis of idiopathic megaesophagus with intermittent gastroesophageal
intussusception
(GEI) was made based on radiographic and endoscopic examinations. The GEI was manually reduced by use of a stomach tube during the endoscopic procedure. An incisional gastropexy was performed to prevent recurrence. Gastroesophageal intussusception is a rare condition in cats. In dogs it is usually associated with rapid progression of clinical signs, culminating in death. In this cat, the condition was associated with chronic signs, probably due to the intermittent nature of the GEI.
