However, this has not been a problem in the two dogs where long term information is available. Excision of the fractured sesamoid bone offers a more rapid return to function but results in a potentially weakened area. These factors will delay healing and encourage the production of mineralised callus. It was a further five weeks before the dog became sound In addition, as sesamoid bones lack a periosteum, they have a low osteogenic potential.
Hospital Association 28,318-322 An abundance of mineralised callus is evident. BELL, W., FEENEY, A., O'BRIEN, J., CAYWOOD, D. Euthanasia was performed when neurological signs recurred. There was a dramatic improvement and the dog remained well for 19 months after completion of treatment. External beam radiation therapy using Co", was given in 10 fractions. Most of the tumour was unresectable on surgical exploration.
A computed tomography scan showed a mass in the right side of the spinal canal at T1T2. Neurological deficits of the right side worsened. The dog then developed hindlimb stiffness and had difficulty going up steps.
American VeterinaryMedical Association 201, 1911-1912Įxternal beam radiation therapy for recurrent intra-spinal meninginoma in a dog AN eight-year-old Dandie Dinmont terrier-cross was sign-free for 15 months after apparent removal of an intradural-extramedullary meninginoma at T1-T2 at surgery. The histological appearance is similar to that seen in cats. Biopsy diagnosis of the mass was adrenocortical carcinoma. Exploratory surgery uncovered a mass at the cranial aspect of the right kidney, involving the adrenal gland, aorta and caudal vena cava. Abdominal radiographs showed loss of serosal detail. A similar mass, removed previously, consisted of mammary hyperplasia. The abdomen was larger than normal and there were two large mammary masses. Concurrent mammary gland hyperplasia and adrenocortical carcinoma in a domestic ferret A FIVE-year-old domestic ferret had a threemonth history of alopecia over the back. Either form of treatment offers an excellent prognosis. They may be treated surgically or managed conservatively. In conclusion, fractures of the lateral fabella appear to be spontaneous and unassociated with any form of external trauma.
