Research on tissue preservation, including cortical bone, skin, nerves, and vessels in glycerol bone honey, has shown positive results. On the other hand, relatively few studies have been performed fascia comparisons between different preservation methods remain scarce. This vitro study compared biomechanical properties of five preserving lata. The control group underwent testing immediately after decellularization, while groups were stored glycerol, deep freezer, lyophilizer, liquid...

A Shetland sheepdog was referred to us for splenomegaly. Blood examination revealed elevated activities of hepatic enzymes. Computed tomography a hypoattenuated splenic mass and large (size: 97 × 81 31 mm) connected the left lateral lobe by pedicle iso-attenuating normal parenchyma. Imaging findings liver were consistent with benign changes. Surgical resection definitive diagnosis through histopathological assessment performed. Intraoperatively, partial torsion observed. thoracoabdominal...

Inter-individual variations in drug responses are major concerns cancer treatment human and veterinary oncology. Consequently, preclinical models have been proposed to predict determine optimal individualized therapy. We aimed evaluate the clinical utility of vitro sensitivity testing using a patient-derived cell culture model select appropriate adjuvant therapies for dogs with solid tumors. screened medical records 126 suspected tumors, including 33 tumors (guided group, 16; empirical 17)....

To evaluate additional effect electroacupuncture, treated conventional medicines alone were compared to medicine. Medical records 80 reviewed this investigation classified into two groups undergoing different methods: (1) medicine (Group C, n = 37) (2) combined CE, 43)....

Two sexually intact male Bengal cats, one a 4-month-old weighing 2.8 kg and the other, 3-month-old 2.0 kg, were presented to University of Missouri-Columbia Veterinary Teaching Hospital for evaluation respiratory distress. On initial presentation, both cats dyspneic, exercise intolerant, had marked concave deformation caudal sternum. Surgical correction pectus excavatum was performed using cylindrical external splint U-shaped splint. Post-operative thoracic radiography revealed that there...

Objective To evaluate the effects of topical zinc gluconate on healing, analgesia, and bacterial growth full‐thickness rat skin wounds. Study Design Experimental study. Animals Male Wistar rats (n = 98) Methods One round 2 cm × surgically created wound dorsum each received 1 following randomized treatments: in carrier solution, saline (0.9% NaCl) chlorhexidine, chlorhexidine + gluconate, corticosteroid, no treatment. At 4 21 days, biopsy samples were taken for histopathology. Bacterial...

6 dogs and a cat were evaluated because of caudal colonic rectal masses.Tumors identified in the portion colon (n = 2), area colorectal junction (2), or rectum (3).In all 7 animals, bilateral pubic ischial osteotomy was performed to provide exposure associated tumor. Masses successfully removed, animals able ambulate normally within 3 days after surgery. No complications with procedure identified.Findings suggested that provided sufficient for resection intrapelvic tumors minimal complications.

Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) is the most common malignant tumor of canine urinary tract and tends to have a poor prognosis due its invasive potential. Recent studies reported that up 80% urothelial has BRAF V595E mutation, which homologous human V600E mutation. Activating mutation an actionable target for developing effective therapeutic agents inhibiting BRAF/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway in cancer as well cancer. We established novel TCC lines from two tissues one...

A six-year-old intact female Maltese dog weighing 3.8 kg presented with a history of mild lameness and swelling on both forelimbs. Radiographic computed tomographic views revealed an extensive periosteal reaction in all four limbs large round mass the right middle lung lobe. total lobectomy was performed pulmonary adenosquamous carcinoma histologically confirmed. diagnosis hypertrophic osteopathy (HO) secondary to tumor made. Periosteal proliferation decreased significantly after surgery;...

Abstract A 15‐year‐old Cocker Spaniel was referred to for the evaluation of left forelimb lameness. Radiographic and computed tomography examinations revealed osteolysis proximal third, fourth fifth metacarpal bones pathological fractures bone. Histopathological examination via bone biopsy did not provide a definitive diagnosis, owner elected limb‐sparing surgery. The digits were amputated. Subsequently, autologous grafts performed on lytic area third bones. dog showed improvement in gait 7...

The intravenous administration of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AdMSCs) in veterinary medicine is an attractive treatment option. On the other hand, it can result severe complications, including pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE).

Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common malignant liver tumor in dogs. Although surgical resection a major treatment option for canine HCC, there are no distinct strategies unresectable subtypes or adjuvant chemotherapy tumors with positive margins. We aimed to establish and characterize novel HCC cell lines from patients. Methods The cellular morphology, general growth features tumorigenicity of established were evaluated. also examined sensitivity multi-target tyrosine...

A 7-month-old, 4.3-kg, spayed female bichon frise was referred for evaluation of chronic urinary incontinence. Abdominal radiographs revealed calculi within the right kidney and ureter. An ultrasound a small kidney. abdominal computed tomography scan with contrast that left ureter extramurally ectopic, inserting into proximal urethra. intramural ectopic identified during cystotomy. Ureteronephrectomy performed on right, ureteroneocystostomy left. telephone conversation owner 4 months after...

We report here the clinical presentation, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and successful surgical management associated with triceps tendon avulsion in a dog. A definitive diagnosis of was made based on MRI evidence displacement tendon. Surgical correction performed two horizontal mattress sutures using polyester tunnels drilled olecranon to reattach proximal olecranon. At 9 months, there no lameness left thoracic limb. This is first case describe evaluation for avulsion.

An 11-year-old, female Maltese was presented for evaluation of a mammary gland tumour. abdominal sonographic examination showed an echogenic, fluid-filled, dilated uterus; pyometra also diagnosed. Ovariohysterectomy and unilateral mastectomy performed the dog recovered uneventfully. However, 11 h later, dog's condition suddenly deteriorated it died on day after surgery. Bacillus circulans megaterium were isolated from its uterine content; these species had not been reported previously in...

Primary cranial mediastinal hemangiosarcomas are uncommon tumors. A 30-kg, 2-year-old, intact female German shepherd was presented for evaluation of cachexia and respiratory distress a few days' duration. Lateral radiographic projection the thorax revealed significant pleural effusion. Computed tomography mass effect adjacent to heart.
