There are many indications for an intravenous excretory urogram. However, where intravenous access is not available, the intraosseous route to the circulation may be an alternative. We found that safe and diagnostic excretory urograms could be obtained in rabbits following the injection of different contrast media via the intraosseous route. In fact, these excretory urograms were indistinguishable from ones obtained by the conventional intravenous route. While the rabbits did not develop any abnormal clinical signs following the procedure, there were postmortem histologic lesions of osteochondrosis in 5 of 22 (22.7%) tibias receiving an intraosseous needle, but in none of the 14 tibias that did not receive an intraosseous needle. Further, the use of diatrizoate was associated with the development of osteochondrosis while the use of iopamidol was not.  相似文献   

SUBTRACTION PORTAL VENOGRAPHY

Photographic subtraction was made of 38 canine portal venograms to remove the images of the overlying abdominal structures and enhance the radiographic contrast of portal veins. The improved visual quality of the subtracted portogram aided in the detection of portosystemic shunts and intrahepatic portal veins. The subtraction studies revealed portosystemic shunts not detected on the initial portal venogram.  相似文献   

Evaluation of Internal Obturator Muscle Transposition in Treatment of Perineal Hernia in Dogs     

ELIZABETH M. HARDIE DVM    RONALD J. KOLATA DVM  MS  DipACVS    THOMAS D. EARLEY DVM  MS    CLARENCE A. RAWLINGS DVM  PhD  DipACVS  EDWARD J. GORGACZ VMD  PhD 《Veterinary surgery : VS》1983,12(2):69-72

A technique that utilizes transposition of the internal obturator muscle for repair of perineal hernias was evaluated. Forty-two male dogs were followed for at least one year after surgery. The repair failed in only one animal, a dog with previously operated bilateral hernias. Microangiography demonstrated an adequate blood supply to the transposed internal obturator muscles of two dogs examined at three weeks and three months after surgery.  相似文献   

Arthroscopic Treatment of Osteochondritis Dissecans in the Canine Shoulder   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

MYRON W. PERSON DVM  MS 《Veterinary surgery : VS》1989,18(3):175-189

Twenty-three shoulders of 21 dogs were treated arthroscopically for osteochondritis dissecans (OCD). Thirteen dogs had bilateral lesions detectable radiographically; however, only two dogs had arthroscopic surgery on both shoulders. Arthroscopic procedures included removal of the osteochondral flap, curettage of the subchondral defect, and partial synovectomy. Fourteen dogs were using the treated limb within 1 day and eight dogs within 2 days, although some lameness may have persisted for several weeks. Force plate evaluation was effective for comparison of preoperative and postoperative mean peak force/body weight (PF/BW) values. Improvement was detected objectively in 9 of the 10 dogs returned for postoperative force plate analysis. All owners were satisfied with the cosmetic results and the rapid return to function.  相似文献   

Pancreatic Polypeptide and Insulin-Secreting Tumor in a Dog With Duodenal Ulcers and Hypertrophic Gastritis     

Carole A. Zerbe DVM  MS    Timothy R. Boosinger DVM  PhD    J. H. Grabau DVM    J. M. Pletcher DVM  Thomas M. O''Dorisio MD 《Journal of veterinary internal medicine / American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine》1989,3(3):178-182

A 7-year-old spayed female Cocker Spaniel was hospitalized with a history of chronic vomiting, anorexia, and weight loss. Laboratory abnormalities included leukocytosis, metabolic alkalosis, hypoglycemia, hypoproteinemia, and hyperinsulinemia. Gastroscopy and ultrasonography revealed multiple gastric masses and a possible pancreatic mass, respectively. Examination of tissues obtained at necropsy showed a pancreatic adenocarcinoma with hepatic metastasis, gastric hypertrophy, and multiple duodenal ulcers. Immunocytochemical staining of the neoplasia was positive for pancreatic polypeptide (PP) and insulin and negative for gastrin, calcitonin, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), serotonin, L-enkephalin, chromagranin, glucagon, and somatostatin. Subsequent serum gastrin and PP assays showed a fasting hypergastrinemia with a normal response of gastrin to provocative testing and extremely increased PP values. The high PP values may have resulted in the vomiting and gastrointestinal ulceration. A PP-secreting tumor has not previously been reported in the dog.  相似文献   

Evaluation of the Tibia as a Source of Autogenous Cancellous Bone in the Horse     

MICHAEL J. BOERO DVM  MS    J. EUGENE SCHNEIDER DVM    JACOB E. MOSIER DVM  MS  DiplomateACVIM    MARK M. GUFFY DVM  MS  DiplomateACVR    HUGH C. BUTLER DVM  MS  DiplomateACVS  HORST W. LEIPOLD PhD 《Veterinary surgery : VS》1989,18(4):322-327

A 1 cm defect was created in the proximal medial cortex of 12 tibiae, cancellous bone was removed from the site, and the bones were fractured by loading in torsion. The fractures did not occur through the donor sites and the fracture patterns and loads to fracture were similar for the treated tibiae and their untreated mates. Cancellous bone was harvested from the proximal medial aspect of both tibiae in nine adult horses. The soft tissue wounds were monitored for more than 10 days in seven horses and healing of the osseous defects was evaluated radiographically at regular intervals to month 6 in two horses. The site provided convenient access with the horses in lateral or dorsal recumbency, the anatomic landmarks were reliable, and the surgical procedure was simple and short. Complications occurred in only three incisions.  相似文献   

CONTRAST ECHOAORTOGRAPHY AS AN AID IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF RIGHT-TO-LEFT SHUNTING PATENT DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS     

John-Karl  Goodwin  DVM  Merrilee  Holland  DVM  MS 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》1995,36(2):157-159

Contrast echocardiography has traditionally been used in conjunction with conventional echocardiography to document right-to-left intracardiac shunting congenital anomalies. This technique does not clearly demonstrate shunting of blood in patients with right-to-left patent ductus arteriosus, as the shunt is extracardiac. We used a variation of contrast echocardiography, contrast echoaortography, to confirm the presence of a right-to-left shunting patent ductus arteriosus in two dogs.  相似文献   

Distribution of Topical Agents in the Frontal Sinuses and Nasal Cavity of Dogs: Comparison Between Current Protocols for Treatment of Nasal Aspergillosis and a New Noninvasive Technique   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

ELISABETH F. RICHARDSON DVM  KYLE G. MATHEWS DVM  MS 《Veterinary surgery : VS》1995,24(6):476-483

To document and compare patterns of distribution of topically applied antifungal medication, heads from 42 canine cadavers were assigned to seven treatment groups which included two current surgical treatment protocols for nasal aspergillosis, and a new, noninvasive method. Catheters (8 Fr) were placed through trephine holes into the frontal sinuses and nasal cavity. Dilute dye was injected through the catheters and the heads were sectioned sagittally. The administration of 5 mL of dye into the lateral frontal sinus and nasal cavity (group IA, 10 mL total) was compared with 25 mL injected through catheters placed bilaterally in the lateral frontal sinus and nasal cavity (group II, 100 mL total). Both were compared with the administration of 50 mL of dye through a catheter placed in the dorsal nasal meatus via each nostril (group III). The heads in group III had significantly ( P <.05) better dye distribution to all cavities than group IA and better distribution to the rostral frontal sinus than group II. Groups IV to VI were designed to show the pattern of distribution of dye to the contralateral nasal cavity and frontal sinuses. In all groups, dye injected into the lateral frontal sinus did not cross into the ipsilateral rostral frontal sinus or vice versa unless the transverse septum dividing the compartments had been penetrated during trephination.  相似文献

SONOGRAPHY OF THE EQUINE PALMAR METACARPAL SOFT TISSUES   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

John W.  Pharr  DVM  MS  Thomas G.  Nyland  DVM 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》1984,25(6):265-273

It was hypothesized that ultrasonography may be a sensitive method for identifying pathologic changes in the tendons and ligaments of the palmar metacarpus of the horse. The palmar meta-carpi of equine cadavers and live horses were examined sonographically. The advantages and disadvantages of various ultrasound scanning techniques and the normal appearance of longitudinal and transverse palmar metacarpal sonograms are described.  相似文献
