Gastroesophageal intussusception in a 50 days old german shepherd dog

We describe the clinical, radiographic, ultrasonographic and gross pathologic examinations of a 50 days old German Shepherd dog with gastroesophageal intussusception associated with esophageal dilatation. The dog was presented 10 days after weaning with a history of regurgitation, persistent vomiting, hematemesis and dyspnea.Upon admission, the dog was lethargic with signs of shock and died just prior to surgery.
