Bilateral hibernomas in the femoral regions of a dog
Can Vet J. 2024 Apr;65(4):367-370.ABSTRACTA 14-year-old intact male Chihuahua dog was presented with masses located between the biceps femoris and adductor muscles in both hind limbs. Based on histopathological, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural findings, we diagnosed these masses as bilateral hibernomas in the femoral regions. The dog had no evidence of recurrence or metastasis of the hibernomas through a 4-month postoperative follow-up. This is apparently the first report of bilateral hibernomas in the femoral regions of a dog. Key clinical message: Bilateral hibernomas should be considered as a differential diagn...

Comparison of sedation with dexmedetomidine administered subcutaneously at 2 different locations on the head in dogs
CONCLUSION: Our study provides evidence that SC administration of dexmedetomidine on the head, at the GV20 point or at the base of the ear, is easy and provides a sufficient level of sedation to obtain orthopedic radiographs in dogs.PMID:38562980 | PMC:PMC10945449 (Source: The Canadian Veterinary Journal)

Comedones and epidermal cysts on the abdominal skin of a dog occurring after a laparotomy
Can Vet J. 2024 Apr;65(4):371-374.ABSTRACTAn 8-year-old neutered male shih tzu dog underwent laparotomy for cystolithectomy. Ten days later, multiple various-sized cystic nodules were observed on the suture line and surrounding abdominal skin, although the surgical incision had healed well. Microscopically, various-sized cysts lined with thin walls of stratified squamous epithelium in the dermis were dilated and filled with keratin. Adnexal differentiation from the wall was not seen. Thus, the abdominal lesions were diagnosed as comedones and epidermal cysts. Herein, we describe the case of a dog with comedones and epiderm...

Basic triage in dogs and cats: Part III
CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Do not refer emergent cases before basic stabilization is completed. Many emergency cases can either be worked up by the primary veterinarian or sent to a referral clinic on an appointment basis after appropriate stabilization steps have occurred.PMID:38562973 | PMC:PMC10945444 (Source: The Canadian Veterinary Journal)

Acute kidney injury and liver disease in an American bulldog with suspected leptospirosis
Can Vet J. 2024 Apr;65(4):385-388.ABSTRACTA 6-year-old spayed female American bulldog was brought to a veterinary clinic with a 3-day history of vomiting, lethargy, anorexia, icterus, hemorrhagic diarrhea, and oliguria. The dog's clinical signs, complete blood (cell) count, serum biochemistry, urinalysis, and diagnostic imaging were indicative of acute kidney injury and acute hepatopathy consistent with leptospirosis. Treatment for leptospirosis was initiated but, due to the dog's lack of response and progression of clinical signs, euthanasia was ultimately elected after 3 d of hospitalization. The dog tested negative for ...

Severe orbital hematoma with third eyelid swelling and prolapse following a blind maxillary nerve block in a horse
Can Vet J. 2024 Apr;65(4):359-362.ABSTRACTA 20-year-old quarter horse gelding was presented for routine dental examination. Periodontal disease and luxation of tooth 108 was diagnosed and oral extraction was planned. After an unsuccessful blind maxillary nerve block, it was elected to perform the procedure under total intravenous anesthesia. Following recovery, a focal superficial corneal ulcer, severe retrobulbar swelling, mild exophthalmos, and marked swelling and prolapse of the third eyelid (nictitating membrane) were observed. Clinical signs persisted beyond 48 h despite the use of systemic anti-inflammatories and top...

Spring and fall blood concentrations of adrenocorticotropic hormone, insulin, and thyroxine in healthy horses in Saskatchewan
CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: These results highlighted the differences between spring and fall concentrations of both ACTH and insulin in healthy horses residing in the Canadian prairie provinces, which are known for extreme differences in summer and winter temperatures as well as day length. Geographically adjusted reference values are necessary to account for these variations, to improve diagnostic accuracy. This is the first published Canadian study evaluating these factors and their associations with hormone concentrations in clinically healthy animals.PMID:38562984 | PMC:PMC10945457 (Source: The Canadian Veterinary Journal)
