Osteossíntese de tibiotarso através de configuração tieinem Gavião Asa-De-Telha (Parabuteo unicinctus) - Relato de Caso / Tibiotarsus osteosynthesis in Harris's hawk using tie-in – a case report

The method of fixation should be well tolerated and its application must be made in theshortest possible surgery and anesthesia times. This report describes the surgicalmanagement of a Harris's hawk who, on orthopedic examination, had functional impotenceof the pelvic limb right. A transverse complete fracture of the tibiotarsus was observed onradiographic examination. Closed fracture reduction was chosen and osteosynthesis withhybrid external fixator with tied-in intramedullary pin. After 30 days it was bone healingwas confirmed.

Laceração de traqueia em cão – Relato de Caso / Laceration of Trachea in dog - Case report

Tracheal laceration can have several causes, among them by run over, bite, projectile andiatrogeny. Tracheal lesions, although uncommon in companion animals, deserve specialattention, since, depending on the severity, they may cause death to the affected patients.The treatment may be conservative or surgical, being the choice dependent on thepresentation of the patient. This study is a case report of a laceration of the trachea in a dogby trampling, whose treatment of choice was the surgical one due to the critical state inwhich the animal presented itself. It all went well, the animal recovered quickly and well.

Hipercrescimento dentário e má oclusão em Porquinho-da-Índia (Cavia porcellus) / Dental overgrowth and malocclusion in guinea pig (Cavia porcellus)

Dental overgrowth and malocclusion are a common problems in the clinic of rodentsraised as companion animals. A guinea pig was attended in a private clinic with clinicalsigns compatible with dental overgrowth and malocclusion, condition that wasdiagnosed by radiography. Despite attempts at treatment, the animal was affected bymany relapses and was euthanized.

Diagnóstico presuntivo de Osteomielite em coelho (Oryctolagus cuniculus) / Presumptive diagnosis of rabbit Osteomyelitis (Oryctolagus cuniculus)

A variety of organisms have been implicated in bone infections such as bacteria and fungi.A male rabbit, with a history of locomotion difficulty, with the presence of a foot injury inboth posterior limbs, characterizing bubble foot, which were already ulcerated, edema inthe tarsal joints, besides the presence of pus in the region. An x-ray of the posterior limbswas requested, with areas of osteolysis being observed. The animal's history andradiographic result were used to give a presumptive diagnosis of osteomyelitis. Astreatment, enrofloxacin therapy was instituted, in addition to cleansing the pododermitewith iodine at 1%. The animal did not present improvement in the clinical picture, beingsubmitted to euthanasia.

Obstrução intestinal associada à ingestão de corpos estranhos em tartaruga-de-espora-africana (Centrochelys sulcata) / Intestinal obstruction associated with ingestion of foreign bodies in African spurred tortoise (Centrochelys sulcata)

The ingestion of foreign bodies by captive reptiles is related to the maintenance of these animals in unsuitable places. This report refers to the description of ingestion cases of weird foreign bodies by one African spurred tortoise (Centrochelys sulcata), from keepers in Ceará, Brazil. The animal is housed freely with other animals, when it came to so sudden death without previous clinical care. Macroscopic changes were: Hydropericardium ascites with reddish exudate hemorrhagic, gastroenteritis metallic object and ulcers in the stomach, food compression and undigested plastic bag in the small intestine. The presence of the metallic object produces the lining of the stomach laceration and bleeding. Exacerbating the situation by compaction of food and plastic bag. We conclude that the ingestion of foreign bodies especially metal objects can trigger fatal consequences to the turtles and the care with environment management and nutrition are important points in prevention.(AU)
