Case Discussion
Left heart failure with asymmetric pulmonary edema. The severe generalized cardiomegaly is the main imaging sign. Differentials for this finding should include severe valvular disease or dilated cardiomyopathy. Alveolar pulmonary infiltrates are attributed to cardiogenic edema. Echocardiogram is recommended for further evaluation if clinically indicated.
Eccentric jets in dogs with mitral valve disease may cause asymmetric pulmonary edema in approximately 1/3 of cases, usually worse on the right side.
