Radical cystectomy with cutaneous ureterostomy is a viable salvage procedure for urinary diversion after cystectomy in dogs with invasive bladder neoplasia. Postoperative management and quality of life were considered acceptable by most owners. Future studies are warranted to evaluate survival time in a larger number of animals.

The effect of applying high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) on the instrumental parameters of color and texture and sensory characteristics of alligator meat were evaluated. Samples of alligator tail meat were sliced, vacuum-packed, pressurized and distributed into four groups: control, treated with 200 MPa/10 min, 300 MPa/10 min and 400 MPa/10 min, then stored at 4°C±1°C for 45 days. Instrumental color, texture profile and a sensory profiling using quantitative descriptive analysis were carried out on the 1st, 15th, 30th and 45th days of storage. HHP was shown to affect the color and texture of the product, and the sensory descriptors (p<0.05). The results suggest that high pressure is a promising technology for the processing of alligator meat, especially low pressures (200 MPa) which can have positive effects on the quality of the product.

RESUMO.A quimioterapia metronômica vem ganhando espaço na medicina veterinária graças a sua facilidade em realizar o tratamento e o seu baixo custo, assim os proprietários estão aceitando com mais facilidade em submeter os seus animais a esse tratamento.

O foco desse tratamento consiste na melhoria da qualidade de vida do paciente e conseguir curar ou controlar a sua doença.Palavras chave: Quimioterapia, metronômica, carcinoma, gato Metronomic chemotherapy for treatment of tumor of transition carcinomatosis cells in the region of vesical trigon in cate: Case report ABSTRACT.
