“…Oral affections reported in maned wolves include gingival infections (Barboza et al., 1994), gingival hyperplasia (Montali & Kelly, 1989), teeth wearing (Lopez, 2009), tooth fracture (Furtado et al., 2007), unerupted canine teeth (Pessoa et al., 2016), caries (Emily & Eisner, 2021) and oral neoplasia (McNulty et al., 2000). Dental disease is likely associated with the dietary intake of acidic and sweet fruits, and tooth fractures may be related to chewing fruits with hard stones and perhaps armadillos (Deem et al., 2012).…”

The maned wolf, Chrysocyon brachyurus, is the largest South American canid, with a natural distribution that stretches across Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. The present study reports the case of a rescued specimen of maned wolf that underwent a rehabilitation process in Paraguay, starting in October 2020 with its rescue, and finalising in May 2021 with the reintroduction. Herein, we document findings regarding the general management, biometrics, feeding and environmental enrichment; chemical immobilisation and monitoring; haematology, blood biochemistry and specific serology‐relevant pathogens; skin examination and bone marrow cytology; orthopaedic, ophthalmological and dental evaluation; abdominal and cardiac ultrasonography; radiology and copro‐parasitology. Main findings include the feeding habits of the individual and enrichment opportunities. The animal weighed 7 kg on arrival, with an estimated age of 5 months, and 18 kg on reintroduction, with an estimated age of 1 year. The animal tested negative to serologic tests for Brucella canis, Dirofilaria, canine distemper, Toxoplasmosis and canine parvovirus. Leptospira testing showed antibodies against L. grippotyphosa on both samplings, L. wolffi and L. ictero on the first sampling, and L. pomona on the second sampling. Abdominal organs were examined and measured through ultrasound evaluation and kidneys showed no alterations. Echocardiography showed preserved mitral, tricuspid and aortic valve flows, but turbulent pulmonary valve flow. Copro‐parasitology reported the presence of Lagochilascaris sp. and Balantidium sp. All the information gathered aided in diagnosing the health status of the individual, and the response to environmental enrichment helped assess the behaviour, which led to the suggestion of reintroducing the animal. These data constitute the first published health check of a maned wolf in Paraguay, which can contribute to the species’ conservation in the country. The protocol presented in this study can serve as a basis for developing an action plan for the maned wolf in Paraguay.

“…Dentes inclusos são aqueles cuja erupção não ocorreu, geralmente devido a falha nas forças de erupção e barreiras físicas, que podem levar inclusive a mau posicionamento dental do incluso (KRESSIN, 2009;EDSTROM et al, 2013;CARLE;SHOPE, 2014;DOMNICK, 2014;FULTON et al, 2014;HONZELKA et al, 2014;NIEMIEC, 2015;BABBITT et al, 2016;PESSOA et al, 2016;KUMAR et al, 2017). Os cães braquicefálicos são os mais suscetíveis a essa condição e todos os dentes podem ser afetados, porém os mais acometidos são os primeiros pré-molares mandibulares e os caninos mandibulares e maxilares (NIEMIEC, 2008;HONZELKA et al, 2014;NIEMIEC, 2015;BABBITT et al, 2016).…”

RESUMO A persistência de dentes decíduos é uma condição comum e acomete principalmente cães de raças pequenas e miniaturas. Pode levar a diversas alterações orais, sendo indicada a extração desses dentes decíduos persistentes. Dentes inclusos são aqueles cuja erupção não ocorreu, e devem ser extraídos para evitar complicações como a formação de cistos odontogênicos. Os cães braquicéfalos são os mais suscetíveis, e o cisto dentígero é o cisto odontogênico mais comum em cães. Mesmo sendo benigno, pode alcançar tamanhos significativos, levando a diversas alterações locais. Este artigo relata um de caso sobre persistência de três dentes decíduos e presença de dois dentes inclusos, sendo um deles associado a um cisto dentígero, em um cão Shuh-Tzu adulto. Discute-se diagnóstico, tratamento cirúrgico e evolução do caso. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: exodontia, extração dental, odontologia, odontologia veterinária.
