This study suggests that SIS can be used as a primary means of repair, as augmentation when the internal obturator muscle is thin and friable, or as a salvage procedure in cases of recurrence in dogs with perineal hernia.
A 10.8-year-old, spayed female toy poodle presented with an esophageal foreign body. The foreign body was removed endoscopically, and a gastrostomy tube was placed to provide nutritional support during esophageal healing. The gastrostomy tube was later removed by endoscopic retrieval of the bulb through the esophagus. Immediately afterward, the dog developed hemothorax and eventually died. It was determined that many small arterial branches were avulsed from the aorta. The involved sections of aorta histopathogically evidenced medial necrosis, which was believed to be related to a prior disruption of blood flow through the vasa vasorum.
The case of an 22-year-old man is presented, who sustained a dislocated fracture of the left acromion process and a not dislocated fracture of the left scapular body with a large subcutaneous décollement as well as a dammage of nervus axillaris occurring during a traffic accident. After resuming diagnostics by means of CT, a tension banding of the ventral part of the acromion and a plate osteosynthesis of the dorsal part was performed. 7 weeks after injury neurolysis of nervus axillaris has been done. 4 months after accident the patient shows a satisfying functional result in the Constant score. Diagnostic, treatment and functional results after operative treatment of dislocated fractures of the acromion are shown and discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
