Felin triaditis
Triaditis er den samtidige betændelse i tre organer hos katte: leveren og galdegangene (cholangitis), bugspytkirtlen (pankreatitis) og tyndtarmen (inflammatorisk tarmsygdom). Disse organer har tætte anatomiske forbindelser hos katte, så sygdom i det ene ofte spredes til de andre. Kombinationen giver vage, men vedvarende symptomer og kan være svær at diagnosticere. Behandlingen adresserer alle tre komponenter samtidig.
