Transcatheter therapeutics have revolutionized treatment of pulmonary valve stenosis (PS). Further understanding PS intervention may help improve outcomes for different species. This study describes characteristics and immediate in children dogs undergoing balloon valvuloplasty (BPV) or transpulmonary stent implantation congenital PS. Multicenter, retrospective review from 2 pediatric 3 veterinary centers. Demographics, procedural characteristics, were assessed. Successful was defined as a...
Abstract Background Refined models of kidney disease are critical to better understand processes and study novel treatments while minimizing discomfort in research animals. The objective this was report a technique for minimally invasive partial embolism cats describe outcomes following transcatheter administration embolic microspheres with subsequent contralateral nephrectomy. Methods Eleven, apparently healthy, male, purpose‐bred underwent unilateral 0.25 or 0.5 mL microparticle (40–120...
Background Systemic hypertension and proteinuria are established adverse effects of tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment in people. Objective The objective this study was to investigate changes systolic blood pressure the incidence secondary with toceranib phosphate dogs cancer. Animals Twenty‐six control 30 cancer were evaluated for first part (baseline characteristics). For second (effect treatment), 48 client‐owned evaluated, including 20 28 various types neoplasia. Methods Prospective...
•Multimodal imaging contributes to understanding of caprine congenital heart disease.•Echocardiography is useful for identification DCJA VSD.•3D models aid in assessing vascular anomalies not noted on echocardiography.
Background: There is a lack of information regarding the association between canine acquired cardiac disease and hepatic system.Objective: Evaluate relationship parameters, survival, stages dogs with either dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) or degenerative valvular (DVD).Animals: Ninety-nine client-owned consisting 16 healthy controls diagnosed DVD (N=61) DCM (N=22) in American College Veterinary Internal Medicine stage B C disease.Methods: Retrospective study evaluating liver type disease,...
•Coronary artery anomalies may exist with congenital PS.•PS occurs in both animals and humans.•Transpulmonary stenting be considered dogs PS coronary anomalies.
Introduction: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a common defect that can be present in small and large animals at birth. Student understanding of normal abnormal cardiac anatomy imperative for proper diagnosis management CHD. Objectives were to create use three-dimensional (3D) models during workshop understand veterinary student perception 3D CHD education. We hypothesized would enhance CHD, students prefer Materials Methods: Computed tomography angiography datasets from canine patent...
Abstract Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is used for the diagnosis of intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (IHPSS). When planning transcatheter intervention, caudal vena cava (CVC) measurements are typically obtained from two‐dimensional (2D) imaging to aid in stent selection. We hypothesized that clinically applicable three‐dimensional (3D) IHPSS models can be generated, and CVC will not differ between 2D images 3D models. datasets client‐owned dogs with at University Georgia Veterinary...
•ASDs can be medically managed in dogs if interventional options are not selected.•3D modeling used for canine congenital heart disease.•3D imaging helps with preprocedural planning ASD.
Transcatheter therapeutics have revolutionized treatment of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Greater understanding corrective interventions across species can advance best practices, protocols, and outcomes while minimizing adverse events. The objective this study was to describe characteristics in children dogs undergoing transcatheter PDA occlusion.
Background Different methods to perform reference calibration of an angiographic image exist; however, a prospective comparison has yet be investigated in veterinary medicine. Objective To compare measurements using two commonly employed methods, esophageal pigtail marker catheter (EC) versus radiopaque table ruler (TR). Animals Thirty‐five client‐owned dogs undergoing transcatheter intervention. Methods Prospective study. Two EC and TR, were recorded procedures from May 2016 July 2017....
Borzoi are large, relatively uncommon sighthounds anecdotally reported to suffer from sudden death. This multicenter retrospective cohort study aimed describe the sample of presenting veterinary cardiologists for evaluation, with records searched 14 centers across a period up 20 years. The was comprised 152 client-owned Borzoi, dogs most commonly pre-breed screening in 87/152 (52%), followed by evaluation an arrhythmia 28/152 (18%). Of 131/152 (86%) that had echocardiogram performed, 85/131...
