12.5-year-old tuxedo male cat
2021-06-01

12.5-year-old tuxedo male cat "Han-Ji" (the name means “sweet potato”), whose Feline chronic gingivostomatitis (FCGS) was cured as of June 1, 2021, returns for a follow-up appointment three months after completing the MGRS treatment.

At the time of Han-Ji's initial visit to our hospital for treatment with Dr. Chung-Wei Chen, he was already 11 years old and had undergone a full mouth extraction (with no retained roots). However, his FCGS condition remained severe: his gingiva and oral mucosa were visibly inflamed and swollen, he experienced a loss of appetite due to pain, and his white blood cell count was twice the normal level.
 

For details on the process of Han-Ji's Mucogingival Replacement Surgery (MGRS), please refer to this previous article: https://www.hellopeter.com.tw/content-87.html

On March 2, 2021, Han-Ji's MGRS treatment was officially completed, and a clear contrast between pre- and post-surgery can be observed, indicating the resolution of FCGS and non-inflamed gingiva and oral mucosa.
 


On March 2, 2021, Han-Ji, who recovered from stomatitis, had a weight of 3.7kg.


On June 1, 2021, three months after the conclusion of the MGRS treatment, Han-Ji returned for a follow-up appointment. His FCGS had not recurred, his gingival color was healthy, his weight had increased to 4.85kg, and his white blood cell count had begun to decrease.
 


Our hospital will continue to monitor the prognosis of each case.
