“…The dog's quality of life greatly improved after the final revision and it was able to breathe through its nasal passages, sleep normally and have a normal level of activity. Sneezing after nasal planum resection is reported as a complication but epistaxis is not reported . The episodes of epistaxis were always associated with sneezing in this dog and was considered a complication of planum resection rather than the corrective surgery per se, perhaps exacerbated by the dry climate of Colorado.…”

“…The purse‐string must not be pulled too tight or the skin may heal across the nasal aperture. Alternatively and preferably, simple interrupted sutures of 4‐0 or 5‐0 suture material can be used to appose the skin and nasal mucosa . Use of a rolling figure‐of‐eight suture passed through a hole drilled in the maxilla is also described, allowing the skin to roll around and cover the cut edge of the bone.…”

“…Nasal planum resection alone or combined with incisivectomy or bilateral rostral maxillectomy is used to remove neoplasms of the nasal planum or those affecting both nasal planum and incisive bone, respectively . The most compromising postoperative complication is stenosis of the nasal aperture . This report describes one‐stage, transposition of superior labial mucosal flaps to correct stenosis of the nares in a dog that had previous bilateral rostral maxillectomy and nasal planum resection.…”

The review summarises the peer-reviewed literature relating to our understanding of feline cutaneous SCC. Unfortunately, the literature is limited and in need of updating in areas.
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.
