A three year old female Rottweiler dog was presented with clinical signs of chronic diarrhoea, severe weight loss and sporadic vomiting. Histopathology revealed intestinal lymphangiectasia with lipogranulomatous lymphangitis. Intestinal lymphangiectasia represents a pathological dilatation of the intestinal lymph vessels and is the most common cause of protein-losing enteropathy in the dog. This paper reports a clinical case with a short review of literature.
