Abstract
A 2-year-old female, 3.8kg weight, mixed-breed dog was presented for a 10-day history of vomiting and anorexia. The dog was diagnosed with pelvic fracture by vehicular accident at a local animal hospital before 2 months, but fracture did not reconstructed. After 2 months, the dog suffered from intermittent vomiting and anorexia. On barium contrast, we diagnosed the dog as intestinal obstruction. Consequently, we were found obstruction by strangulation and adhesion of intestine at the fracture site through the operation. At present after 18 months of surgery, general physical condition of the dog is good.
