Abstract

A 5-year-old intact female mixed dog was admitted to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital for reconstructive surgery of traumatic oronasal communication in the palatal region after suffering a facial gunshot injury. The surgical procedure involved making buccal mucosal flaps as well as a transposition flap of the hard palate mucoperiosteum from the tissue adjacent to the defect, followed by applying a prosthetic appliance to protect the surgical flaps. A satisfactory outcome was obtained using a palatal prosthesis.

5년령의 암컷 사냥개가 사냥 중 안면부 총상에 의한 구비강 개통으로 내원하였다. 협측피판 및 경구개 점막골막피판술을 이용하여 구개부의 창상성 구비강 개통에 대한 재건술을 실시하였다. 그리고 수술부위의 보호를 위해 인상 과정을 통해 정교하게 제작된 아크릴 부목을 적용함으로써 비교적 큰 결손부를 성공적으로 치유한 증례를 보고하고자 한다.
