A seven-year-old, male, intact samoyed with chronic diarrhoea was diagnosed as having a regional granulomatous enterocolitis confined primarily to the distal ileum and caecum. Radiographic and histopathological findings revealed that the most severe inflammatory changes involved the caecum. Long-term corticosteroid management, a short course of metronidazole, and a three-month period of treatment with azathioprine failed to adequately control the diarrhoea. Surgical resection of the caecum eventually helped resolve the condition.
