40-day-old mixed male puppy was presented with a 10-day history of tenesmus and extensive ulcerative lesion of perineum. At physical examination, the dog was voiding mainly from an orifice in the perineal fistula. On fistulogram, a urethroperineal fistula was diagnosed. The dog was treated by wet dressing for wound management and antibiotics for 4weeks. Subsequently, the patient improved and no complication or recurrence was presented.

성인의 선천성 식도 기관지루는 드문 질환이고 그 중 Braimbridge 제III형은 매우 드물다. 본 교실은 폐내형 기관지성 낭종을 동반한 선천성 식도 기관지루(제III형) 1례를 경험하였다. 환자는 38세 남자로 내원 3일전부터 시작된 기침과 복통을 주소로 내원하였다. 식도조영술상 식도와 우폐하엽의 낭성 병변사이에 누관이 발견되었다. 누공절제술과 우폐하엽과 우폐중엽 절제술을 시행하였고 수술후 경과는 별 문제가 없었다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of dacryoscintigraphy with Tc-99 m Pertechnetate, which is useful in functional nasolacrimal duct obstruction diagnosis in human medical science, by applying it to normal dogs. Dacryoscintigraphy was performed on six clinically healthy beagle dogs to confirm normal passage of their lacrimal ducts. The scintigraphic images of both lacrimal system were obtained at 5 min, 10 min, and 20 min after Tc-99 m Pertechnetate administration, respectively. If lacrimal duct does not come into view within 20 min, delayed images at 30min, 45min and 60 min were gained. After drawing ROI of left and right canaliculus, lacrimal sac, and nasolacrimal duct acquired after dacryoscintigraphy, we measured each counting rate and developed a counting rate table for each time interval. Of the total of 12 places, 10 (83.3%) showed patency within 20 min, and 11 (91.6%) showed patency within 30 min. In one dog, a functional obstruction of right lacrimal canal was observed. Dacryoscintigraphy could provide useful information about functional and anatomical lacrimal duct obstruction in veterinary medicine as well as in clinical research.

A mixed-breed hunting dog suffered penile amputation and lacerations in the femoral and inguinal areas while hunting wild boar. The penis was replanted by anastomoses of the urethra, cavernous body, and the left and right dorsal veins of the penis. The transected penis recovered anatomically and functionally. No evidence of postoperative necrosis or edema was detected at the distal portion of the penis. In addition, fistulas and stenosis were not found on urethrogram 20 days after the surgery. Aside from surgery, we performed experimental cavernosography to identify the importance of the anastomosis of the dorsal veins of the penis in three beagle dogs. The cavernosograms revealed that, the contrast medium, which was injected into the bulbus glandis, drained by the left and right dorsal veins of the penis, then converged into one vessel at the ischial arch and diverged into the left and right internal pudendal veins. Thus, reanastomosis of the left and right dorsal veins of the penis in cases of transected canine penis appears to be important for positive postoperative prognosis.
