“…Stapled anastomosis have had healing quality equal to or better than hand‐sewn anastomoses and are faster to create as long as the staple line is not oversewn 2,11,22 . Whereas reinforcing the ends of the staple line with a “keeper” or stay suture is important for strength, inverting the staple line is not recommended 3,4,8,10,12 …”

“…Surgeons are more aware of the factors that influence survival after intestinal surgery and are increasingly better able to manage these factors 1–9 . The use of surgical staples for intestinal resection and anastomosis is one effective method to decrease operative time in metabolically compromised patients with devitalized intestine 2–5,8–12 . Small intestinal anastomosis can be performed using a stapled side‐to‐side technique 2,9–11 or a closed one‐stage stapled functional end‐to‐end jejunojejunostomy 10 …”

“…The use of stapling devices has significantly improved gastrointestinal surgery in the horse since the first report of their use (Gideon 1975). Important considerations include the condition of the bowel as well as the cost associated with such devices (Edwards and Daniel 1996). Gastrointestinal stapling devices are frequently used in equine abdominal surgery for enterotomy closure, resection and anastomosis, or haemostatic applications, and can reduce surgery time and contamination of the abdomen (Edwards and Daniel 1996; Blackford and Blackford 2006).…”

Summary In this report we describe a 3‐week‐old Paint horse filly that presented with rectal bleeding associated with a protruding mass. Rectal bleeding in neonates can be caused by infectious agents, trauma, congenital defects, rectal tears or tumours. Histopathology was performed on an avulsed piece of tissue. A second mass was identified endoscopically and was removed using a stapling instrument per rectum under endoscopic guidance and laparoscopic assistance. The mass was diagnosed as a rectal hamartoma. Recovery was uneventful.

Zusammenfassung Gegenstand und Ziel: Das Bestreben, die routinemäßige Kastration der gesunden Hündin als Elektiveingriff so schonend wie möglich für das Tier zu gestalten, führte zur Entwicklung verschiedener laparoskopischer Operationsverfahren, deren Akzeptanz jedoch bislang hinter den Erwartungen zurückgeblieben ist. In der vorliegenden Arbeit soll durch Einsatz neuer oder verbesserter minimal invasiver Technologien gezeigt werden, wie das Operations-Prozedere optimiert werden kann. Material und Methoden: Zwischen Juni 2001 und Dezember 2003 wurden 28 Hündinnen ovariohysterektomiert (n = 27) oder ovariektomiert (n = 1). Die Eingriffe erfolgten unter Zuhilfenahme von optischen Trokaren, verschiedenen Blut-und Gewebekoagulationssystemen (Hochfrequenzstrom, Ultraschall) sowie endoskopischen Klammernahtgeräten. Ergebnisse: Alle minimal invasiven Operationen verliefen erfolgreich. Die Dauer des Eingriffs betrug durchschnittlich 57 Minuten. In keinem Fall war ein Konvertieren zum offenen chirurgischen Vorgehen notwendig. Sechs Monate bis zweieinhalb Jahre post operationem zeigte keine der Hündinnen Symptome einer Läufigkeit oder Harninkontinenz. Schlussfolgerungen und klinische Relevanz: Die Vorteile der minimal invasiven Operationsmethode konnten vor allem wegen der verwendeten neuen Technologien (z. B. modifizierte HF-Technik Ligasure®) eindrucksvoll unter Beweis gestellt werden. Die beschriebene standardisierte Vorgehensweise zur laparoskopischen Ovariohysterektomie der Hündin vereinfacht den Eingriff und steigert so die chirurgische Effizienz gegenüber der konventionellen Laparotomie.
