“…Unlike after passage through the inguinal ring, the vas deferens is distinctly separate from other structures of the spermatic cord in this location. Damage to the testicular artery and vein must be avoided as testicular atrophy will occur causing gonadal hormone levels to be similar to traditional orchiectomy (Hsu et al, 1993;Mathon et al, 2011;Tavares et al, 2021). A vessel-sealing device is passed through a second opening in the port and is used to simultaneously cut and seal the structure.…”

“…One of the most frequent procedures carried out in veterinary practice is elective sterilisation of dogs (Mayhew & Brown, 2007 ). Laparoscopic ovariectomy is a technique with several benefits and is safe and reliable in dogs (Van Goethem et al., 2003 ; Van Nimwegen et al., 2005 ; Wenkel et al., 2005 ; Cicirelli et al., 2022 ; Radford et al., 2021 ; Leonardi et al., 2020 ; Tavares et al., 2021 ).…”

Background: Studies in human medicine have concluded that acetazolamide reduces pain associated with carbon dioxide insufflation during laparoscopic surgery. However, there are no published reports regarding the use of acetazolamide for this purpose in companion animals, despite the increasing popularity of laparoscopic techniques in veterinary medicine due to their advantages over open surgeries.Objectives: Thirty mixed-breed female dogs were included in the study and randomly assigned to one of three groups: OVE (median celiotomy ovariectomy; n = 10), OVEL (laparoscopic ovariectomy, n = 10) and OVELA (laparoscopic ovariectomy with acetazolamide preoperative administration; n = 10). Experienced surgeons performed all procedures, and the anaesthetic and analgesic protocols were identical for all animals.Acetazolamide was administered orally (at a dose of 25 mg/kg) 2 h prior to induction in the OVELA group. Postoperative pain was evaluated using serum cortisol, salivary cortisol, and the University of Melbourne Pain Scale (UMPS) Score.Results: Any statistical differences were observed in the UMPS scores when the OVELA group was compared to the OVEL group at 1 h after surgery (p = 0.515), 12 h (p = 0.375) and 24 h (p = 0.242). Animals undergoing open surgery (OVE group) had significantly higher pain scores at all times after surgery when compared with OVEL and OVELA groups. A high positive correlation (r = 0.792; p = 0.01) was found between serum and saliva cortisol concentrations. Mean saliva cortisol concentration was not significantly lower for the OVELA group compared to the other groups.Conclusions: This study found evidence that preoperative administration of acetazolamide may be beneficial in managing postoperative pain in dogs after laparoscopic surgeries. However, further research with a larger sample size is needed to confirm this and to determine if acetazolamide should be included in a multimodal postoperative analgesia protocol for laparoscopic ovariectomy in dogs.
