Result of Endoscopically Assisted Gastropexy in Dogs

Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the use of endoscopy jointly with gastropexy in dogs as a potential mean to aid prevention and evaluation of the long-term effi ciency of this procedure for gastric dilatation-volvulus.The study was performed on ten healthy adult medium-and large-breed dogs. The dogs had no abnormal fi nding upon physical examination and each underwent an endoscopically assisted gastropexy procedure. After surgery all dogs were in good condition. The surgical procedure was followed by x… Show more

“…The surgical procedure itself took less time than in the COV group as it lasted only from 15 to 20 minutes. Short anaesthesia time and closed abdomen in LOV group were probably the reasons for good maintenance of body temperature in this group of dogs [20,21]. Dogs from the LOV group were fully awake one hour after the end of surgery and moved with a steady gait.…”

“…According to different authors, the benefi ts of percutaneous tube gastropexy include: being a minimally invasive procedure as it minimizes the number and size of surgical incisions, with a shorter anesthesia procedure; and less degree of postoperative pain and requirements for analgesia; incidence of incision complications, days of hospitalization, and cost [15]; and also the possibility of enteral nutrition [10,11]. However, a relative disadvantage is the limitation of to do only a unilateral gastropexy (left-side); contraindications of performing a percutaneous gastropexy for this case would include situations where the gastric wall is compromised or adhesions are formed, which increase the risk of gastric perforation, other limitation is that the assessment and correction of esophageal hiatal abnormalities is not possible with this method [10,11].…”
