Abstract
A 3.5-month old male Miniature Dachshund was brought to our hospital with hyposthenia and melena as chief complaints. Blood examination showed severe anemia with hypoproteinemia and leukocytosis. Various clinical examinations suggested presence of severe anemia and inflammation associated with hemorrhage from the digestive tract. Endoscopically, ulcerating lesions in the pyloric antrum was found and biopsy samples were taken. By exploratory laparotomy, the abdominal organs were examined and biopsy samples were taken. The gastric ulcerating lesion was excised surgically. Histopathologically, the lesion was diagnosed as chronic active gastritis with ulceration. The dog has been in a good condision since this surgical treatment.
