Tumors originating from the uterine tube are exceedingly rare in dogs, with limited clinical and therapeutic data available. This report illustrates a case of adenoma one-year-and-two-month-old intact female Pomeranian presented severe abdominal distension. Diagnostic imaging revealed large mass compressing left kidney, suspected to originate reproductive organs. Surgical excision mass, accompanied by ovariohysterectomy, was performed without complications. The tumor, measuring 30 cm...

Abstract Background Prostatic cancer is uncommon in dogs. Dogs with prostatic carcinoma have been reported to a poor prognosis. Information regarding prognosis various surgery options as well surgical vs. medical treatment lacking. This retrospective study compares the outcomes of management dogs adenocarcinoma and assesses patients who underwent total prostatectomy (TP) prostatocystectomy (TPC). The records 41 adenocarcinoma, between February 2008 June 2019, were reviewed for information on...

This prospective case study aimed to clarify the clinical significance of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for differential diagnosis canine adrenal tumors. Forty-three client-owned dogs with tumors were included. All underwent CEUS, which was evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively. The peak signal intensity (PI), time (TPI), mean transit (MTT), upslope, downslope calculated each time-intensity curve. histopathological resected mass compared CEUS findings parameters. Enhancement...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common form of in cats, and heart failure occurs as diastolic dysfunction progresses. HCM cats broadly classified non-obstructive obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, depending on the presence or absence outflow tract obstruction. Measurement intraventricular pressure differences (IVPD) using Color M-mode (CMM) has attracted attention reliable index it correlates with catheterization, gold standard for assessment performance. Since, IVPD affected by...

To describe the clinical, diagnostic, and pathological features postoperative prognosis of canine combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA).14 privately owned dogs that underwent surgical treatment.The medical records, including signalment, clinical signs, blood test, urine analysis, computed tomography (CT) findings, intraoperative were retrospectively reviewed in with cHCC-CCA.Of 306 removal hepatic masses, 14 (4.6%) pathologically confirmed to have cHCC-CCA. Median age body...

Abstract Background Surgical resection is the treatment of choice for canine adrenal pheochromocytomas (PHEOs). Information on en bloc PHEO with tumour thrombus, right hepatic division and segmental caudal vena cava (CVC) running through limited. Objective To describe preemptively planned an extensive involving division, caval thrombus CVC in a dog Budd−Chiari‐like syndrome (BCLS). Methods A 13‐year‐old castrated male miniature dachshund was referred surgical due to anorexia, lethargy severe...

Perineal hernia (PH) in dogs is caused by the separation of anal septal muscles and displacement pelvic/abdominal organs under perineal skin. Reconstruction pelvic septum surgical repositioning only curative treatment.To describe procedure outcomes repair using pedunculated tunica vaginalis communis (TVC) for PH dogs.Intact male diagnosed with were included this study. For surgery, each dog was positioned Trendelenburg position. Castration performed open technique, followed colopexy...

To investigate the intraoperative identification and complete resection of pulmonary masses, to evaluate lymph node metastasis malignant tumors in dogs using indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging.Forty with masses were included, all which underwent surgical treatment. ICG imaging was performed on before lobectomy margins after lobectomy. In addition, excised nodes evaluated shaded box. The findings compared histopathological diagnosis.Of 44 nodules resected from 40 dogs, 32...

There is limited information regarding percutaneous transvenous coil embolization (PTCE) for single extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (PSS). This study aimed to describe the procedure and outcome of PTCE in dogs with a PSS. Forty-two privately owned were included this study. All diagnosed PSS by computed tomography (CT). Preoperative CT images used evaluate diameter placement. A multipurpose balloon catheter was percutaneously inserted into via jugular vein, retrograde portography (TRP)...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common form of in cats, and heart failure occurs as diastolic dysfunction progresses. HCM cats broadly classified non-obstructive obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, depending on the presence or absence outflow tract obstruction. Measurement intraventricular pressure differences (IVPD) using color M-mode (CMM) has attracted attention reliable index it correlates with catheterization, gold standard for assessment performance. Because IVPD affected...

Angiogenesis plays an important role in the proliferation and metastasis mechanisms of malignant tumors. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a group cytokines that contribute to angiogenesis vasculogenesis. This study aimed investigate serum VEGF-A concentrations dogs with various proliferative diseases. A total 202 were histopathologically diagnosed diseases included study. Serum measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Median as follows: healthy dogs, 4 pg/ml [0-21 pg/ml];...

Canine primary lung adenocarcinoma (CPLA) is suspected by radiography or computed tomography; however, since there are no tumour markers, early diagnosis difficult, and the prognosis poor due to increased volume. Nectin-4 has been reported be expressed in human lung, ovarian, pancreatic cancers promotes growth. It a marker prognostic factor, oncolytic virotherapy being investigated using nectin-4 as therapeutic target.The purpose of this study was investigate expression CPLA its clinical...

Two dogs with anorexia and rapid weight loss were referred to our hospital due a right renal mass several pulmonary nodules. Both underwent needle core biopsy of the mass, followed by transarterial chemoembolisation mass. A catheter was inserted from femoral artery advanced into artery. suspension carboplatin (100 mg/m2 ) equivalent lipiodol administered via multipurpose catheter. Immediately after, under fluoroscopic guidance, pulse injections small amounts gelatin particles (diameter 1 mm)...

Near-infrared fluorescence imaging using indocyanine green (ICG) is clinically applied to intraoperatively identify hepatic masses in humans. In addition, it reported be effective for assessing complete resection human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, there limited information on ICG canine HCC, and its clinical usefulness still unclear. Therefore, the purpose of this study was evaluate intraoperative identification status surgical margin near-infrared imaging. This included 104 dogs...

To evaluate the clinical impact on quantitative analysis of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) single extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (PSS) in dogs.21 client-owned dogs with PSS and 5 healthy Beagles.In all dogs, CEUS was performed to calculate rising time (RT), rate (RR), portal vein-to-hepatic parenchyma transit (ΔHP-PV) from time-intensity curve obtained hepatic vein. All group underwent preoperative CT angiography (CTA) surgery. The variables were compared those (control group)...

A 9-year-old spayed female crossbreed cat with chief complaints of anorexia and hypersalivation had high serum concentrations ammonia fasting postprandial total bile acid. Therefore, she was referred to our hospital. On the first evaluation, haematology, chemistry, radiography ultrasonography findings suggested that a congenital portosystemic shunt. CT revealed shunt vessel from left gastric vein pulmonary vein. During median celiotomy sternotomy, gross mesenteric portography abnormal...

Abstract An 11‐year‐old neutered male toy poodle was referred to our hospital due a mass formation in the right cranial abdomen without any clinical signs. A gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) suspected based on diagnostic imaging and cytology. Imatinib administered; however, size did not change, thus duodenal resection performed Day 65. The antimesenteric border of proximal duodenum; therefore, major minor papillae were preserved, defect duodenum reconstructed with pediculated jejunal...
