Hyarulonicacid (HA) is an abundant molecule found in synovial fluid and plays an important role as a lubricant and shock absorber for the joints. Nonetheless, the effects of synovial fluid replacement with HA after canine stifle surgery remains elusive. A retrospective study was conducted on 54 small breed dogs with either medial patellar luxation (MPL) or cranial cruciate ligament ruptures (CCLR). Dogs were classified as HA (21 with MPL-HA and 16 with CCLR-HA) or control (10 with MPL-C and 7 with CCLR-C) groups. The weight bearing score, lameness score, and pain scores were compared between HA and control groups on …

This study was to investigate intraocular structures of canine absolute glaucomatous eyes using real time B-scan ultrasonography in accordance with the amplitude mode. Ten normal eyes and twenty absolute glaucomatous eyes were included in this study. Ocular biometry via closed-eye technique was performed usingthe Ultrascan®Imaging System (Alcon Surgical Laboratory,Fort Worth, USA), with a 10 MHz mechanical sector probe. Changes of intraocular structures were descriptively analyzed. Ocular biometry was measured, statistically analyzed and compared between both groups. While mean lens thickness was comparable betweennormotensive and glaucomatous eyes, mean lens equatorial length was higher in the latter group. Increased hyperechogenicity of lens …

The effect of dexmedetomidine alone and when combined with pethidine on a minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of isoflurane was determined in 24 client-owned adult male dogs before castration. Dogs were assigned to Group 1 (n = 12; dexmedetomidine, 5 µg/kg IM) or Group 2 (n = 12; dexmedetomidine, 5 µg/kgand pethidine, 5 mg/kg IM) . Sedation and response to noxious stimulation (digit clamping) were evaluated at 15 minutes after drug injection. Then, anaesthesia was induced via a face mask with isoflurane in oxygen and maintained via an endotracheal tube with an end tidal concentration of isoflurane (E´ISO%) of 1%, at …
