“…Lateral exteriorisation of the tongue after extubation could have been a contributing factor. Emergence delirium or dysphoria can occur in geriatric animals2; however, this was not observed in this case. The dog had a presumptive diagnosis of degenerative myelopathy before anaesthesia, based on clinical signs (tetraparesis and urinary incontinence).…”

This report describes a 13-year-old, 41.5 kg, male neutered, Rhodesian ridgeback that had lacerated its tongue on postanaesthetic recovery after administration of bilateral inferior alveolar nerve blocks (IANBs). IANBs are a commonly used locoregional anaesthesia technique for oral and dental procedures. An often-mentioned complication is tongue laceration; however, there are no case reports of such events in the literature for cats or dogs. To the author’s knowledge, this is the first case report of such an event. This complication was attributed to the administration of bilateral IANBs using 1.5 ml of 0.5 per cent bupivacaine per block. Other differentials included lateral tongue positioning on extubation, emergence delirium or dysphoria and a presumptive degenerative myelopathy.

“…This procedure may even be performed with just mild sedation and/or local anesthesia . This minimizes anesthetic risks, which is particularly important as most eyelid masses occur in older canine patients, who often have comorbidities putting them at increased anesthetic risk . Debulking and cryotherapy is often a less expensive procedure than traditional surgical options, thereby making it a more accessible treatment for many patients.…”

“…12 This minimizes anesthetic risks, which is particularly important as most eyelid masses occur in older canine patients, 1-3 who often have comorbidities putting them at increased anesthetic risk. 19 Debulking and cryotherapy is often a less expensive procedure than traditional surgical options, thereby making it a more accessible treatment for many patients. This procedure is efficacious for both small and large eyelid masses, even when a large percentage of the eyelid margin is involved.…”

“…In the present study, safe and efficient technique of collection, sample storage, expanding and preserving BM-MSC in critically endangered Arabian leopard was demonstrated. Anesthesia of geriatric patient with concurrent diseases always increase the risk ofcomplications often seen in the older patient; these include hypotension, bradycardia, hypoxemia, and prolonged recovery (Baetge and Matthews, 2012). Previously published reports described different anesthetic protocols for leopards including: dexmedetomidine (0.015 mg/kg), ketamine (3 mg/kg), and midazolam (0.1 mg/kg) in combination with isoflurane (Malmlov et al, 2014).…”

The Arabian leopard (Panthera pardus nimr) is critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, with an effective population of 150-250 across its entire range in the Arabian Peninsula. Isolation and preservation of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells is beneficial both for medical and research purposes. The optimal protocol for collection, handling, culturing and preserving the Arabian leopard mesenchymal stem cells acquired from bone marrow was established. Anesthesia with combination of medetomidine and tiletamine-zozalepam is the safest option even for old animals with concurrent disease including chronic kidney disease.
