Mode B ultrasonography and abdominal Doppler in crab-eating-foxes ( Cerdocyon thous )

Abstract: Annually hundreds of crab-eating foxes (Cerdocyon thous) are referred to rehabilitation centers and zoos in Brazil. The ultrasonographic study of wildlife species is an important tool for a non-invasive and accurate anatomical description and provides important information for wildlife veterinary care. The aim of the present study was to determine the characteristics of the main abdominal organs as well as the vascular indexes of the abdominal aorta and renal arteries of crab-eating foxes (Cerdocyon thous) usi… Show more

“…The ultrasound characteristics of the agouti stomach were similar to those described for pacas Cuniculus paca (Feliciano et al 2014) and wild dogs Cerdocyon thous (Heleno et al 2011). The stomach walls (0.16±0.05cm) and duodenum (0.3±0.15cm) of agoutis are thicker than those of the rabbit stomach (0.10±0.01cm) and duodenum (0.19±0.04cm) (Banzato et al 2015), but crab-eating foxes (0.39±0.05cm) (Silva et al 2014) and collared peccaries (0.42±0.28cm) (Peixoto et al 2012) have much thicker stomach walls than agoutis.…”

“…Regarding the renal morphometry, our measurements were within the maximum and minimum limits established by Banzato et al (2015) in rabbits of 2.8±0.34cm and 1.62±0.17cm for length and width, respectively, for the right kidney and 2.86±0.33cm and 1.72±0.19cm for the left kidney, length and width, respectively. The 1:1 cortex-medullar ratio observed in these wild rodents was individualized and preserved, as observed by Silva et al (2014) in crab-eating foxes (Cerdocyon thous) and by Feliciano et al (2014) in pacas (Cuniculus paca). However, a difference was observed in the cortex-medullar ratio compared with non-human primates (Cebus apella), that showed a 2:1 ratio (Alves et al 2007).…”
