Abstract
A 13-year-old neutered male Lagotto Romagnolo dog had ultrasonographic and computed tomographic findings of pneumatosis intestinalis after presentation to the emergency department because of progressive diarrhea and hyporexia. Further investigations produced a diagnosis of multicentric lymphoma, and treatment with chemotherapy was commenced. Clinical remission of lymphoma was achieved and coincided with resolution of pneumatosis intestinalis on subsequent computed tomographic imaging. Key clinical message: Consider underlying pathology such as neoplasia in cases of pneumatosis intestinalis after excluding surgical emergent causes.

The Canadian Veterinary Journal (CVJ) provides a forum for the discussion of all matters relevant to the veterinary profession. The mission of the Journal is to educate by informing readers of progress in clinical veterinary medicine, clinical veterinary research, and related fields of endeavor. The key objective of The CVJ is to promote the art and science of veterinary medicine and the betterment of animal health.
A report suggesting that animals have been unnecessarily subjected to adverse, stressful, or harsh conditions or treatments will not be processed for publication. Experimental studies using animals will only be considered for publication if the studies have been approved by an institutional animal care committee, or equivalent, and the guidelines of the Canadian Council on Animal Care, or equivalent, have been followed by the author(s).
