  • Laparoscopic Gastropexy As a Preventative Measure for Gastric Dilation Volvulus in Canines
    Laparoscopic Gastropexy as a Preventative Measure for Gastric Dilation Volvulus in Canines By: Erin O’Brien Advisors: Dr. Kimberly Boswell Board Certified Surgeon Southwest Michigan Animal Emergency Hospital Kalamazoo, MI Dr. Diane R. Kiino Ph.D. Kalamazoo College Health Science A paper submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts at Kalamazoo College. 2010 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Over the summer I was able to intern at the Southwest Michigan Animal Emergency Hospital in Kalamazoo, MI. It was there that I was exposed to the emergency setting in veterinary medicine but also had the chance to observe surgeries done by Board Certified Surgeon, Dr. Kimberly Boswell. I would like to thank the entire staff at SWMAEH for teaching me a tremendous amount about veterinary medicine and allowing me to get as much hands on experience as possible. It was such a privilege to complete my internship at a hospital where I was able to learn so much about veterinary medicine in only ten weeks. I would also like to thank Dr. Boswell in particular, it was a gastropexy surgery I saw her perform during my internship that inspired the topic of this paper. Additionally I would like to acknowledge my advisor Dr. Diane Kiino for providing the direction I needed in choosing my paper topic. iii ABSTRACT Gastric Dilation Volvulus (GDV) is a fatal condition in canines especially those that are large or giant breeds. GDV results from the stomach distending and twisting on itself which when left untreated causes shock and ultimately death. The only method of prevention for GDV is a gastropexy, a surgical procedure that sutures the stomach to the abdominal wall to prevent volvulus or twisting.

  • The Short Esophagus—Lengthening Techniques

Correspondence to: Reginald C. W. Bell. Institute of Esophageal and Reflux Surgery, 499 E Hampden Ave., Suite 400, Englewood, CO 80113, USA. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Conditions resulting in esophageal damage and hiatal hernia may pull the esophagogastric junction up into the mediastinum. During surgery to treat gastroesophageal reflux or hiatal hernia, routine mobilization of the esophagus may not bring the esophagogastric junction sufficiently below the diaphragm to provide adequate repair of the hernia or to enable adequate control of gastroesophageal reflux. This ‘short esophagus’ was first described in 1900, gained attention in the 1950 where various methods to treat it were developed, and remains a potential challenge for the contemporary foregut surgeon. Despite frequent discussion in current literature of the need to obtain ‘3 or more centimeters of intra-abdominal esophageal length’, the normal anatomy of the phrenoesophageal membrane, the manner in which length of the mobilized esophagus is measured, as well as the degree to which additional length is required by the bulk of an antireflux procedure are rarely discussed. Understanding of these issues as well as the extent to which esophageal shortening is due to factors such as congenital abnormality, transmural fibrosis, fibrosis limited to the esophageal adventitia, and mediastinal fixation are needed to apply precise surgical technique.

  • Advances in Flexible Endoscopy
    Advances in Flexible Endoscopy Anant Radhakrishnan, DVM KEYWORDS Flexible endoscopy Minimally invasive procedures Gastroduodenoscopy Minimally invasive surgery KEY POINTS Although some therapeutic uses exist, flexible endoscopy is primarily used as a diagnostic tool. Several novel flexible endoscopic procedures have been studied recently and show prom- ise in veterinary medicine. These procedures provide the clinician with increased diagnostic capability. As the demand for minimally invasive procedures continues to increase, flexible endos- copy is being more readily investigated for therapeutic uses. The utility of flexible endoscopy in small animal practice should increase in the future with development of the advanced procedures summarized herein. INTRODUCTION The demand for minimally invasive therapeutic measures continues to increase in hu- man and veterinary medicine. Pet owners are increasingly aware of technology and diagnostic options and often desire the same care for their pet that they may receive if hospitalized. Certain diseases, such as neoplasia, hepatobiliary disease, pancreatic disease, and gastric dilatation–volvulus, can have significant morbidity associated with them such that aggressive, invasive measures may be deemed unacceptable. Even less severe chronic illnesses such as inflammatory bowel disease can be asso- ciated with frustration for the pet owner such that more immediate and detailed infor- mation regarding their pet’s disease may prove to be beneficial. Minimally invasive procedures that can increase diagnostic and therapeutic capability with reduced pa- tient morbidity will be in demand and are therefore an area of active investigation.

    NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Stacee Daniel, ACVO Director American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists Ph: 208.466.7624 Fx: 208.466.7693 [email protected] www.ACVOeyeexam.org; www.ACVO.org 10,000 SERVICE DOGS TO RECEIVE THE GIFT OF PRESERVED SIGHT United States of America, May 12, 2008 – The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists® (ACVO®) and Pet Health Systems (PHS) are launching the ACVO® National Service Dog Eye Exam event the week of May 12th. This unprecedented event will provide free sight-saving eye exams and preventative health reports to 5,000-10,000 Service Dogs. Over 140 board certified veterinary ophthalmologists and 1,300 general veterinarians across the US will work together to provide these services at no cost to Service Dog groups including: guide dogs, handicapped assistance dogs, detection dogs and search and rescue dogs. With this event, ACVO® and PHS hope to give back to these animals who selflessly serve the public for no compensation. They will accomplish this goal while donating nearly One Million dollars in services to the 5,000- 10,000 Service Dogs anticipated to participate. An ACVO® Diplomate recently hosted a local ‘test’ event in Memphis, TN and examined 87 Service Dogs. The local event was so successful that ACVO decided to offer this program on a national scale. One seeing-eye dog, “Quest”, was diagnosed with a possible sight-robbing tumor, which would be devastating to both him and his owner, Mr. Ron McKenney. We are hopeful that through the partnership of a veterinary oncologist and veterinary ophthalmologist Quest may be able to retain his sight.
