Use of direct near ‐infrared fluorescent lymphography for thoracoscopic thoracic duct identification in 15 dogs with chylothorax
ConclusionNIRFL is a viable technique to aid in TD identification during thoracoscopy. High contrast NIRF illumination of the TD can be achieved with successful intraparenchymal injection of ICG into the popliteal lymph node. (Source: Veterinary Surgery)

Epicardial exposure provided by a novel thoracoscopic pericardectomy technique compared to standard pericardial window
ConclusionThoracoscopic PW+F is a novel technique that improves the exposure of the epicardium compared to standard PW. While PW+F can be performed successfully and in an efficient manner, the surgeon must be aware of the risk of iatrogenic trauma to thoracic structures when using electrosurgery.
Clinical relevancePW+F offers a relatively safe, efficient, and effective minimally invasive method that improves the exposure of the epicardium compared to PW. (Source: Veterinary Surgery)

Arterial anomalies of the celiac trunk and median arcuate ligament compression in dogs and cats assessed by computed tomography angiography
ConclusionAnomalies of the celiac trunk are apparent on CTA and may impact surgical or image‐guided intervention. Compression at the origin of the CA was apparent on imaging, similar to the median arcuate ligament syndrome in people, although the significance of this finding in dogs is unknown.

The impact of postdischarge surveillance on surgical site infection diagnosis
ConclusionUnderstanding the incidence of SSI with feedback to surgeons is an important aspect of an infection control program and has been shown to reduce SSI risks. Without active postoperative surveillance, 27.8% of SSIs would have gone unknown to surgeons. Implementing active surveillance will allow accurate reporting of incidence of SSIs in veterinary hospitals. (Source: Veterinary Surgery)
