A 3-year-old male French Buldog was referred for evaluation of a sudden right thoracic limb lameness. Radiographic and histopathologic examination gave the diagnosis of simple bone cysts of the humeral supracondylar region with a pathologic supra- and intercondylar fracture of the right humerus. The osteosynthesis of the fractures was performed with a lag screw Ø 3.5 mm, bone cement, and 3 Steinman pins. After 5 weeks a second surgery was required because of the destabilization of the intercondylar fracture. The osteosynthesis of the intercondylar fracture was carried out with 2 lag screws Ø 2.7 mm. The dog did not experience any complications associated with the second surgical procedure. The outcome was very good with insignificant lameness.
Intervertebral Hansen type I disc extrusion is a common neurological disease in chondrodystrophoid dogs. This lesion occurs most frequently at the thoracolumbar part of the spine. The aim of this study was to describe clinical problems attributable to simultaneous disc extrusion in the Th12-13 and Th13-L1 intervertebral spaces in two shorthaired Dachshunds (6-year-old female and 9-year-old male). Both dogs lost the ability to walk suddenly, after a period of running or jumping. The diagnosis was based on clinical examination results, myelography (female dog) or myelo-CT (male dog). The dogs were treated by decompressive surgery. The female dog was euthanized during the operation because of myelomalacia. The male regained neurological function five weeks after the surgery. These two cases demonstrate the need to include double intervertebral disc extrusion in a differential diagnosis of chondrodystrophoid dogs with the palsy of pelvic limbs.
The aim of this study was the assessment of the usefulness of the ultrasound-guided method during injections into the Th₄- Th₇ intercostal nerve area in dogs, as well as comparison of the liquid deposition precision obtained using anatomical and ultrasound- guided methods. The study has been performed on fresh cadavers of 20 dogs. A mixture of black ink and iodinated contrast medium was injected. The procedure was performed by anatomical method at the right side and ultrasound-guided at the left side. Subsequently, thoracic radiograph in dorsal recumbency and post-mortem examination were performed. A spread of the contrast media mixture was assessed on radiographs and during post-mortem examinations. Eighty injections were done in 20 dogs with the use of each method. The assessment method of the accurate placement of the contrast medium mixture in the area of the intercostal nerve, based on X-ray examination, was consistent with necropsy findings. Probability of the precise liquid placement was two times greater in case of ultrasound-guided method than in case of anatomical one. These differences were statistically significant. Ultrasound viewing improved considerably the precision of injection of the contrast medium mixture in the area of intercostal nerves. This technique is simple and easy to master and it increases effectiveness and safety of performed procedures. The comparison of both methods on cadavers enables a choice of an appropriate anaesthesia technique in living animals.
