Article Synopsis
- The study details a case where a feline meningioma was detected during surgery using a technique called photodynamic detection (PDD) with 5-aminolaevulinic acid (5-ALA), which produced fluorescent signals indicating the tumor's presence.
- An MRI revealed an extra-axial mass in the cat's brain, and during surgery, PDD helped achieve a successful and precise tumor removal by highlighting the tumor tissue.
- This case is significant as it marks the first reported use of 5-ALA for detecting and guiding the resection of brain tumors in cats, suggesting its potential effectiveness for similar procedures in veterinary medicine.
