Öğe Abdominal Herniation of the Left Kidney in a Cat and Its Surgical Treatment: A Case Report(Dokuz Eylul University, 2024) Saylak, Nahit; Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Çatalkaya, Emine; Taşdemir, Laleş; Ozer, Vedat; Yayla, SadıkA 4-year-old female tabby cat, weighing 4.2 kg, was presented to the Dicle University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Surgery Department with a complaint of a swelling in the left dorsolateral abdominal region. Upon examination, a painless, walnut-sized swelling, palpable in the left dorsolateral abdominal region, was identified. According to the anamnesis and previous radiographic images available from the owner, this swelling had developed a year ago following a fall from a high place. Detailed clinical and radiographic examinations revealed that the cat had undergone osteosynthesis with cerclage wire in the left corpus ileum region after falling from the fifth floor at a private clinic a year ago. The swelling was determined to be a herniated left kidney. Based on physiological and laboratory assessments indicating stability, an operative repair was planned. A skin incision was made over the mass, followed by careful dissection of the subcutaneous connective tissue, revealing the herniated kidney. After confirming the absence of strangulation through macroscopic evaluation, the kidney was repositioned. The surgical site was closed with Halsted sutures, and the procedure was completed with appropriate conventional methods. In conclusion, kidney herniation in abdominal dorsolateral hernias is a rare condition. Although various surgical approaches have been described for this region, long-term follow-up showed that the case healed successfully with the chosen method. This case report aims to inform colleagues about the importance of carefully considering abdominal hernias resulting from blunt trauma in clinical practice.Öğe Assessment on the “Tail Pull Injuries”: Case series of 8 cats(Harran Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, 2023) Çatalkaya, Emine; Yayla, Sadık; Altan, Semih; Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Saylak, Nihat; Hatipoğlu, ŞimalTail-pulling injuries in cats often occur with trauma or pinching of the tail. This condition often causes damage to the nerves that supply the tail, bladder, perineum, and anus. An accurate and good neurological examination is necessary to grade the severity of the injury. The aim of this study in a case series of 8 cats with "Tail Pulling Injuries" was to discuss the clinical results and to provide practical information. Medical records of cats with tail-pulling injuries, loss of voluntary movement of the tail, and loss of pain perception were reviewed retrospectively. Among the cats with tail pull injuries, those with open tail fractures, tail wounds requiring amputation, and spinal trauma were excluded from the study. According to neurological examination findings and tail condition, medical treatment and tail amputation were performed if necessary. Seven of the eight cats in the study had fully recovered by the end of the second week. As a result, in the case of tail pull injuries in cats, if there is no fracture or luxation-related gap, amputation should not be considered immediately. It can be supported by an effective medical treatment. In addition, amputation will be inevitable if there is a gap due to a fracture or luxation in the tail.Öğe Bir Buzağıda Dermal Melanom(Veteriner Cerrahi Derneği, 2022) Ermutlu, Celal Şahin; Yayla, Sadık; Çatalkaya, Emine; Öztürk, Savaş; Sözmen, MahmutBu bildiride bir buzağıda karşılaşılan doğmasal dermal melanom olgusunun klinik ve histopatolojik olarak değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Olgumuzu Kafkas Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Cerrahi Kliniğine getirilen, Simental ırkı, 4 aylık, erkek bir buzağı oluşturdu. Anamnez bilgilerinden, boynun sağ tarafında doğuştan var olan fındık büyüklüğündeki oluşumun hayvanın büyümesi ile birlikte hacmini arttırdığı öğrenildi. Klinik muayenede boyun derisi ile bağlantılı 20x16x9 cm boyutlarında, sert kıvamda ve koyu renkte bir kitle saptandı. Operasyonla uzaklaştırılan kitlenin histopatolojik incelenmesinde hücresel tip melanom olduğu belirlendi. Postoperatif iki yıllık süreçte nüks ile karşılaşılmadı.Öğe Bir deve kuşu ventrikulusunda yabancı cisimlerin endoskopik tanısı ve ventrikulostomi(Dicle Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, 2023) Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Çatalkaya, Emine; Yayla, Sadık; Altan, Semih; Kılınç, Mehmet; Saylak, NahitDeve kuşlarının sindirim sistemleri diğer kuşlardan farklıdır ve bu kuşlarda pika sıklıkla görülebilmektedir. Bu olgu sunumunda deve kuşlarında sindirim sisteminin anatomisinin bilinmesinin ve sindirim sistemi muayenesinde endoskopinin önemini vurgulamak amaçlandı. Olguyu kronik zayıflama şikâyeti ve bıçak yutabilme ihtimali ile Dicle Üniversitesi Cerrahi kliniklerine getirilen 2 yaşlı Afrika deve kuşu oluşturdu. Yapılan klinik, radyolojik ve endoskopik muayenede midede yabancı cisim bulunan deve kuşu ameliyata alındı. Ventrikulusunda çok sayıda yabancı cisim çıkarıldı. Bölge tekniğine uygun dikişlerle kapatıldı. Deve kuşu taburcu edildikten 1 gün sonra ex oldu. Sonuç olarak deve kuşlarında yabancı cisim teşhisinde endoskopi güvenilir bir teşhis yöntemidir ve gerek sindirim sisteminin endoskopik muayenesinde gerekse operatif yaklaşımda anatomi bilgisi önemlidir.Öğe Clinical and etiologically evaluation of cats with high-rise syndrome: assessment of 72 cases (A retrospective study)(Mehmet Akif Ersoy Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, 2022) Çatalkaya, Emine; Altan, Semih; Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Yayla, Sadık; Saylak, NahitSurgical problems observed in cats after falling from balconies or windows of buildings are significant, and this phenomenon of falling from a height is known as high-rise syndrome (HRS). The purpose of this study was to clinically evaluate frequently encountered cases of cats falling from a height. Overall, 72 cats of different breeds, ages and sexes brought to XXX University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Surgery, with complaints of falls from a height in 2019 were included. Falls from a height are more common during summer. Orthopaedic problems are common (58.33%), and femoral fractures (23.61%) constitute an important part of them. The affected cats were aged mostly under the 1 year. Furthermore, the survival rate of these cats was found to be 95.8%. In conclusion, the main purpose for the treatment of cats with HRS should be to stabilise their general condition and subsequently correct orthopaedic and/or soft tissue damage.Öğe Clinical and radiological evaluation of distal extremity lesions in racehorses(Universidad del Zulia, Facultad de Ciencias Veterinarias, 2024) Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Çatalkaya, Emine; Arserim, Neval Berrin; Ketani, Muzaffer Aydın; Demirtaş, BerjanDistal extremity lesions are prevalent in racehorses and cause mild– to–severe lameness, adversely affecting the racing life of horses. This study aimed to determine the incidence of distal extremity lesions in racehorses, to clinically and radiologically assess those lesions. The study included 158 limbs from 140 horses with distal extremity lesions among 282 horses of different breeds, age and sex that were presented to Equine Hospital of the Directorate of Diyarbakir, Turkey, Hippodrome with various clinical complaints during a racing season. Following anamnesis, the horses were clinically examined and lameness was localised. In cases where the lameness could not be localised upon physical examination, regional anaesthesia was performed, followed by radiological assessments based on radiographs acquired from different positions. Clinical and radiological examination revealed that 84.17% of the cases occurred in the forelimb and 15.82% in the rear limb, and the lesions in the forelimb were mostly located in the carpal joint (26.58%), metacarpus (25.31%) and metacarpophalangeal joint (23.41%), whereas those in the rear limb were located in the tarsal joint (7.5%). Therefore, the lesions in the forelimbs were more prevalent than those in the rear limbs of the affected racehorses. Radiography remains a satisfactory imaging technique for the diagnostic imaging of distal limb injuries in horses owing to its cost–effectiveness.Öğe Clinical and radiological evaluation of racehorses with sesamoiditis: Case series(Agricultural Research Communication Centre, 2024) Çatalkaya, EmineBackground: Sesamoiditis causes intermittent lameness in horses and is characterized by the enlargement of vascular channels, local osteolysis, osteophyte and enthesophyte formation on radiography. This study aimed to report the relationship between the clinical and radiological findings of racehorses diagnosed with sesamoiditis, the treatment applied and long-term results. Methods: The study included a total of 30 Arabian and Thoroughbred racehorses aged 2-7 years diagnosed with sesamoditis based on clinical and radiological examinations. These horses were treated and followed for nine months. Result: Radiographic examination revealed different numbers of enlarged vascular channels in the proximal sesamoid bones in all the cases and osteophytosis (n=3), enthesophytosis (n=9), osteolysis (n=3) and fractures (n=6) in some cases. In addition, low heels were important in 27 cases. The body conformation and low-heeled hoof structure play a role in the development of sesamoiditis in horses and should be considered. As a result, body structure and low heel structure play a role in the development of sesamoiditis in horses and should be considered. This situation should be tried to be corrected by farriers during the foaling period. Sesamoiditis can have a positive prognosis with appropriate treatment and adequate rest, for this reason, treatment should be started in the early period.Öğe Clinical evaluation of complications after surgical treatment of patella dislocations in dogs: A retrospective study(Universidad del Zulia, Facultad de Ciencias Veterinarias, 2024) Çatalkaya, Emine; Yayla, Sadık; Altan, Semih; Kanay, Berna ErsözPatellar luxation is one of the important orthopedic problem in dogs. Patellar luxation, which has been accepted as a developmental disorder in recent years, usually occurs medially in small breeds and laterally in large breeds. The aim of this study was to evaluate surgical treatment (femoral trochleoplasty, tibial tuberosity transpositions and imbrication techniques together), postoperative complications, early and late results in dogs with patellar luxation. Thirty–two dogs with grade 3 and grade 4 patella luxation were used in this study. While patellar luxation was treated in all cases, tibia fracture was seen in one dog as the most important complication. During tibial tuberosity transpositions technique, attention should be paid to the cutting process and the tibia should not be weakened. In conclusion, the combined use of femoral trochleoplasty, tibial tuberosity transposition and imbrication techniques can be used for patellar luxation. Complete recovery may not be possible in grade 4 patellar luxations.Öğe Congenital Cheilopalatoschisis in a Calf(Veteriner Cerrahi Derneği, 2022) Yayla, Sadık; Kurt, Başak; Çatalkaya, Emine; Aksoy, Özgür; Özaydın, İsa; Kılıç, EnginThis is a case report of a one-day old, Montafon breed, male calf with a cleft lip and palate admitted to University of Kafkas, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Surgery. Clinical examination revealed that the upper lip of the calf was connected with the nasal cavity via two clefts. The palate had a cleft as well. The cleft lip was repaired by “horizontal U” suturing through the nasal wings and nasal septum after repairing the cleft palate by suturing with simple interrupted pattern and anatomical integrity was achieved in the region. Postoperative follow-up showed that calf was healthy without any sign of complication.Öğe Diyarbakır’da klinik olarak sağlıklı atlarda oküler bakteriyel ve fungal flora(2023) Çatalkaya, Emine; Sever, Nurdan KaracanOküler flora atın yaşadığı ortam, iklim, coğrafya vb. birçok etkenden etkilenebilir. Bu çalışmanın amacını Diyarbakır Hipodromunda yarış koşan ve hipodroma yakın çiftliklerde yarış koşmayan sağlıklı yarış atlarında bakteriyel ve fungal oküler florayı belirlemek ve belirlenen bakteri ve mantar türlerini tanımlamak amaçlandı. Çalışma grubunu değişik yaş ve cinsiyette Diyarbakır Hipodromunda bulunan yarış koşan 28 ve hipodrom yakınlarındaki çiftliklerde yarış koşmayan 28 safkan Arap ve İngiliz atına ait 112 sağlıklı göz oluşturdu. Sağlıklı gözlerin medial kantusundan steril swaplarla sürüntü alınarak soğuk zincirde Dicle Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Mikrobiyoloji Laboratuvarına ulaştırılarak konjunktival florada bulunan bakteri ve fungal etkenlerin izolasyonu ve identifikasyonu yapıldı. Hipodrom grubundaki atlarda bakteriyolojik üreme oranının %94.64, fungal üremenin ise %28.57 olduğu, çiftlik grubundaki atlarda bakteriyolojik üremenin %100, fungal üremenin ise %14.29 olduğu tespit edildi. Değerlendirilen konjunktival svap örneklerinin izole ve identifiye edilen bakterilerin hipodrom grubunda %87.79’unun Gram pozitif, %12.21’inin Gram negatif, çiftlik grubunda ise %82.56’sının Gram pozitif, %17.43’ünün de Gram negatif olduğu belirlendi. Her iki grupta da mikrofloranın büyük çoğunluğunu Staphylococcus spp. tarafından oluştuğu görüldü. Sonuç olarak, atlarda belirli aralıklarla konjunktival floranın belirlenmesinin olası bir kornea veya göz hasarında izlenecek tedavinin belirlenmesine yardımcı olacağı; ayrıca erken müdahale ile kornea hasarına bağlı görme kayıplarının önüne geçilebileceği düşünülmektedir.Öğe Evaluation of eye diseases encountered in cats: A retrospective study (2020-2023)(Dicle Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, 2023) Çatalkaya, Emine; Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Yayla, Sadık; Saylak, Nahit; Bayat, AhmetThe eye is a sensory organ sensitive to external factors, infections and metabolic disorders and eye diseases have a very important place among surgical diseases. This study aimed to report the distribution of eye diseases encountered in cats brought to Dicle University Veterinary Faculty Hospital in the last 4 years (2020-2023) and to contribute to veterinary practice. The study material consisted of 291 cats of different ages, genders and breeds diagnosed with eye disease, brought to Dicle University Veterinary Faculty Animal Hospital between January 2020 and September 2023. Following the history of the cats, a detailed eye examination was performed and the diagnosed eye problem was recorded. In the cats included in the study, conjunctivitis (21.15%), keratitis (19.59%), corneal ulcer (14.09%), keratoconjunctivitis sicca (9.62%), glaucoma (3.44%), uveitis (4.12%), iris staphyloma (4.12%), symblepharon (3.78%), panophthalmitis (3.44%), corneal necrosis (3.09%), membrane nictitans protrusion (1.72%), chemosis (1.72%), entropion (1.37%), cataract (1.03%), hypopion (0.69%), proptosis (0.34%), local retinal detachment (0.34%) and dermoid cyst (0.34%) were seen. As a result, conjunctiva and corneal diseases were commonly encountered in cats. In order to prevent visual impairment, it is important not to neglect routine eye examinations and to diagnose and treat diseases early.Öğe Evaluation of supracondylar femur fractures in cats: a retrospective study(Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, 2022) Yayla, Sadık; Altan, Semih; Çatalkaya, Emine; Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Saylak, NahitFemoral fractures in cats are common and are usually treated using pins and wires, lag screws, intramedullary pins, as well as interlocking pins and plates. Among femur fractures, supracondylar femur fractures have an important place, and both proximal and distal femur fractures are more difficult than diaphyseal fractures. This study, which was conducted on 55 cats with the distal femur and supracondylar fractures, aimed to retrospectively evaluate the results of three different methods used traditionally. These methods were Rush pinning, cross pinning, and locked anatomic plates. Despite the disadvantages of each of the techniques, no problem was found in the application of either of them. No complications, including pin migration or plate and screw related complications, were encountered in the postoperative period. Functional improvement was achieved in all cats. As a result, it can be said that the method to be used in supracondylar fractures in cats varies according to the surgeon's preference and the orthopedic materials in his or her inventory. However, the anatomical locking plates may be preferred due to their advantages, such as not using bandages and starting to use the limb in the early postoperative period.Öğe Kars bölgesinde yeni doğan buzağılarda retinal anormalite insidensinin fundoskopik muayene ile belirlenmesi(Dicle Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, 2019) Çatalkaya, Emine; Özaydın, İsaBu çalışmada Kars Bölgesinde yeni doğan buzağılarda (0-3 aylık) rutin göz ve göz fundusunun muayenesi yapılarak retinal anormalitelerin tip ve insidensi ile olası nedenlerin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma materyalini değişik ırk ve cinsiyette 0-3 aylık 300 baş buzağı oluşturdu. Bütün olgularda Atropin ile oluşturulan midriasis sonrası göz fundusunun muayenesi yapıldı. Fundus muayenesinde optik disk, tapetal bölge, nontapetal bölge ve retinal damarlar değerlendirilerek normal ve anormal bulgular not edildi ve fotoğraflama işlemi gerçekleştirildi. Değerlendirmeye alınan 300 baş buzağının 287’sinde (%95,66) klinik olarak herhangi bir problem saptanmazken 13’ünde (%4,33) bilateral tam körlük problemi belirlendi. Bilateral körlük saptanan 9 olguda (%3) retina ve optik disk problemi gözlemlendi, 4 olguda (%1,33) ise retina ve optik diskte herhangi bir anormal bulguya rastlanmadı. Görme problemi olan 9 olgunun 1’inde optik disk hipoplazisi, retinal dejenerasyon ve miyelinizasyon, 1’inde optik neuritis, 2’sinde optik disk hipoplazisi, 1’inde korioretinitise bağlı retinal kanama, 1’inde papilloödem, 1’inde retinal dejenerasyon, 1’inde papilloödem ve retinal dejenerasyon, 1 olguda ise bir gözde optik neuritis ve retinal kanama, diğer gözde de optik neuritis ve parsiyel retinal ayrılma tespit edildi. Bu çalışmayla, bölgemizdeki sığır yetiştiriciliğinde büyük önem taşıyan görme problemlerine ilişkin insidens bilgileri yanında, çeşitli sığır ırklarına ilişkin normal fundus varyasyonları saptandı ve problem saptanan olgularda fundusla ilgili problemlerin çeşitliliği belirlendi.Öğe Kedi ve Köpeklerde Kalça Kırıkları Üzerine Retrospektif Bir Çalışma (2020-2022)(Afyon Kocatepe University, 2024) Çatalkaya, Emine; Yayla, Sadık; Altan, Semih; Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Saylak, Nahit; Hatipoğlu, ŞimalKedi ve köpeklerde birçok travmada pelvik kırıklar meydana gelir. Bu çalışmada pelvik kırık tanısı konulan kedi ve köpeklerde tedavi (konservatif ve operatif) ve sonuçlarının birlikte değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Çalışma materyalini 2020-2022 yılları arasında farklı yaş, cins ve cinsiyetteki 27 köpek ve 75 kedide tespit edilen 223 pelvik kırık (15 asetabulum, 40 ischi, 68 ilium, 38 pubis ve 62 sakroiliak ayrılma) oluşturmuştur. Pelvis kırığı tanısı klinik ve radyolojik muayene ile konuldu. Konservatif ve operatif olarak (iliyosakral vida, iliosakral pin, kilitli plak, serklaj, asetebular C plak kullanılarak) tedavi edildi. Pelvik kırık vakalarının kedilerde en çok yüksekten düşme, köpeklerde ise trafik kazası sonucu meydana geldiği görüldü. Pelviste tek kırık olabileceği gibi birden fazla kırık da olabileceği gözlendi. Toplam 73 vaka ameliyat edildi. Kırıkların 55'ine iliosakral vida, 1'ine iliosakral pin, 45'ine kilitli plak, 9'una serklaj uygulaması, 10'una asetabular C plak ve 1'ine eksizyon artroplastisi uygulandı. 29 olguya konservatif tedavi uygulandı. Ameliyat edilen hastalarda yapılan kontrollerde herhangi bir komplikasyon görülmedi. Sakroiliak ayrılma durumlarında vidalarla stabilizasyonda iyi sonuçlar elde edildiği, ilium kırıklarında kilitli plak, asetabulum kırıklarında ise asetabular C plak kullanımının ameliyat sonrası dönemi daha rahat ve konforlu geçirebileceği sonucuna varıldı.Öğe Kedilerde Travmatik Diyafram Fıtığı ve Sağkalımı Etkileyen Faktörler (24 Kediyle Klinik Bir Çalışma)(Harran University, 2024) Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Yayla, Sadık; Altan, Semih; Çatalkaya, Emine; Saylak, Nahit; Canli, Rojda; Taşdemir, LaleşTravmaya maruz kalan kedilerde diyafram fıtığı hala ciddi bir sorundur. Bu nedenle kedilerde travmatik diyafram yırtılması ve hayatta kalma üzerine etkili faktörler ile ilgili klinik gözlemler aktarılarak klinik pratiğe ve meslektaşlara katkı sağlanması önemlidir. Bu çalışmada travmatik diyafram fıtığı tanısı alan 24 kedi sunuldu. Kontrastlı radyografi şüpheli durumlarda tanı açısından büyük kolaylık sağladı. Çalışmada bulunan 24 kediden 20'si (%83) hayatta kaldı ancak 4'ü öldü. Bu kedilerin diyafram lokalizasyonu 3 kedide sol yarıda olup, sol yırtıkta bu oran oldukça yüksekti (%50). Sağdaki defektlerde fıtıklaşan organ karaciğer, ince bağırsak ve omentum, soldaki defektlerde ise mide, ince bağırsak ve dalaktı. Sonuç olarak %83 oranında hayatta kalma önemlidir ve bu da diyafram fıtığı için iyi bir prognozdur. Birçok olumsuz stres faktörüne rağmen iyi bir ameliyat yönetimi ve ameliyat sonrası bakım, hayatta kalma oranıyla birlikte artırılabilir.Öğe Management of eye protrusion in cats with acute trauma(Dicle Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, 2024) Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Çatalkaya, Emine; Yayla, Sadık; Altan, Semih; Saylak, Nahit; Taşdemir, LaleşPreventing permanent vision loss and damage to the bulbus oculi in cases of proptosis, which is very important in small animal eye emergencies, and protecting the anatomical structures of the eye. Early intervention is important for protection. In this study, patients with proptosis who had experienced acute trauma. It was aimed to report the treatment and results of cats. Proptosis was diagnosed in 11 of 96 cats (11.45%) who presented to eye emergencies. On examination, all cats had eye. It was determined that the edges of the eyelids were not visible, the bulbus oculi was muffled, the bulbus oculi was hyperemic and edematous, there was a pupillary light reflex in 9 cases, and there was no pupillary light reflex in 2 cases. In the treatment, enucleation was applied in 2 cases, canthotomy and temporary Blepharorhaphy were applied in 3 cases, and temporary Blepharorhaphy was applied in 6 cases. It was determined that there were no postoperative complications in all cases and visual function was observed in all cases except for those who underwent enucleation. As a result, urgent intervention is important to protect the anatomical structures of the eye and maintain visual function in proptosis. The results obtained from this study are satisfactory for cats and their caregivers.Öğe Management of Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) and Evaluation of Survival Rate in Cats Exposed to Trauma(Agricultural Research Communication Centre, 2024) Çatalkaya, Emine; Kanay, Berna ErsözBackground: Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a complex condition that may be associated with sepsis or may progress with trauma, burns and major surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the systemic inflammatory response syndrome and survival rate in traumatized cats. Methods: The study material consisted of 34(22.66%) cats diagnosed with SIRS among 150 cats who were traumatized by falling from a height. Cats were monitored and vital signs such as pulse, respiration, arterial blood pressure, oxygen saturation and body temperature were recorded. In addition, laboratory whole blood and biochemical tests were performed. In the treatment of cats with SIRS, it was aimed to provide circulatory support and support measures to keep the animal alive. Result: 27(79.41%) cats with SIRS died due to lung failure or multi-organ failure and 7(20.58%) cats survived. The prognosis in SIRS patients with trauma depends on the patient's response to aggressive treatment and supportive care. SIRS has a high mortality rate. Common causes of death include cardiovascular collapse, multi-organ dysfunction and acute lung injury. © 2024 Agricultural Research Communication Centre.

The study was conducted in two groups of 10 dogs each. In group I (XG), intrathecal injection of 20 mg bupivacaine was administered into the subarachnoid space in the lumbosacral area after treatment with 1 mg/kg intravenous (iv) xylazine. In group II (PG), 4 mg/kg iv propofol was administered before IT bupivacaine administration. The onset, duration, and magnitude of sensory block (scale 0-3) were determined using the pin-prick test throughout the anesthesia. Duration of surgery (XG: 47.20 ± 5.01 min, PG: 50.85 ± 6.97 min) and duration of anesthesia (XG: 92.20 ± 7.02 min, PG: 94.50 ± 7.26 min) were not significantly different between the groups. This study concludes that propofol administration before IT anesthesia with bupivacaine maintains safe levels of IT anesthesia and can therefore be used as an alternative to xylazine treatment. © 2021 The author(s).

In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the treatment (conservative and operative) and its results together in cats and dogs diagnosed with pelvic fracture. The study material consisted of 223 pelvic fractures (15 acetabulum, 40 ischia, 68 ilium, 38 pubis and 62 sacroiliac separation) detected in 27 dogs and 75 cats of different ages, breeds and genders between 2020-2022. Pelvic fracture was diagnosed with clinical and radiological examination. It was treated conservatively and operatively (using iliosacral screw, iliosacral pin, locking plate, cerclage, acetabular C plate). It was observed that cases with pelvic fractures were mostly caused by falling from a height in cats and traffic accidents in dogs. It was also observed that there could be a single fracture in the pelvis as well as multiple fractures. A total of 73 cases were operated. In 55 of the fractures, iliosacral screw, 1 iliosacral pin, 45 locked plate, 9 cerclage application, 10 acetabular C plate and 1 excision arthroplasty were applied. Conservative treatment was applied to 29 cases. No complications were observed in the controls performed in the operated patients. It was concluded that good results were obtained in stabilization with screws in cases of sacroiliac separation, and the use of locking plates in ilium fractures and the use of acetebular C plate in acetabulum fractures could lead to a more comfortable and comfortable postoperative period.Öğe Sığırlarda metakarpo/metatarsofalangeal eklemine artroskopik yaklaşım: Bir kadavra çalışması(Dicle Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, 2023) Çatalkaya, Emine; Yayla, Sadık; Altan, Semih; Kanay, Berna Ersöz; Saylak, NahitArtroskopi eklem hasarlarının tanı ve tedavisinde önemli yer tutar. Bu çalışmada sığırlarda metakarpo/metatarsofalangeal (MCP/MTP) eklemleri için artroskopik yaklaşımı ve anatomisini tanımlayarak klinik pratiğe katkı sağlaması amaçlandı. Çalışma materyalini mezbahada kesimi yapılmış 5 sığırın 10 MCP ve 10 MTP eklemi oluşturdu. Artroskopik olarak bu eklemlere dorsal ve palmar/plantar yönden yaklaşıldı ve intraartiküler yapılar artroskopik olarak görüntülenerek tanımlandı. Dorsal yaklaşımda sinovyal villuslar, metakarpus/metatarsusun distali ve I. falanksın proksimali, palmar/plantar yaklaşımda ise bu yapıların yanısıra proksimal sesamoid kemikler, çapraz sesamoid ligamentler görüntülendi. Sonuç olarak, diğer birçok eklemde olduğu gibi MCP/MTP eklemlerinde de artroskopik yaklaşım tekniklerinin bilinmesi önemlidir. Bu teknikler intraartiküler yapıların değerlendirilmesine ve görselleştirilmesine yardımcı olabilir. Ancak eklem hasarı olduğu durumlarda eklemin normal anatomisi ve artroskopik giriş yerleri değişebilir. Bu nedenle klinik olgularda da tekniklerin değerlendirilmesi önemli olacaktır.
