The current, retrospective study aimed to assess the short-term prognosis and postoperative complications associated with the surgical correction of elongated soft palate using harmonic scalpel and to compare the postoperative complications associated with the application of harmonic scalpel and traditional surgery using Metzenbaum scissors. Harmonic scalpel was used to perform staphylectomy in 21 dogs. A total of ten dogs underwent sacculectomy; six dogs with harmonic scalpel and four dogs using Metzenbaum scissors. Stenotic nares were corrected by wedge resection. Postoperative complications were recorded through monitoring and radiographic examinations. Telephone interviews were conducted on the first, third, and seventh day after discharge and continued until the resolution of postoperative complications. Postoperative edema at the surgical site was identified and mitigated within a day or two. Snoring and dyspnea improved dramatically in the group that underwent staphylectomy alone. Moreover, three dogs presented with postoperative gastrointestinal complications, especially retching. The symptoms persisted for seven days and ten days in two dogs that underwent sacculectomy with harmonic scalpel and for two days in one dog that underwent sacculectomy with Metzenbaum scissors. The clinical signs and symptoms of brachycephalic syndrome disappeared without recurrence. Harmonic scalpel provides a hemostatic effect during staphylectomy, is convenient, and does not cause postoperative complications. Conversely, the use of harmonic scalpel during sacculectomy necessitated a longer period for the resolution of complications without any significant hemostatic efficacy, compared to traditional surgery.

The purpose of this study is to assess healing effect of the green tea on Staphylococcus contaminated wound. On the back of 7 dogs, 6 full-thickness skin wounds($2cm{\times}2cm$) were made and Staphylococcus intermedius was inoculated. Each wound was applied with the 2%(experimental group I), 1%(experimental group II) extract of green tea and normal saline(control group I) after inoculation. The wound contraction rate of the experimental group I and II was higher than that of the control group in entire period. And from the $6^{th}\;to\;22^{nd}$ day, the wound contraction rate of the experimental group I and II was significantly higher than that of the control group(p<0.05). The occupation rate of wound healing in the experimental group I was higher than that of the control group from $0\;to\;9^{th}$ day except from $1^{st}\;to\;2^{nd}$ day and also higher than that of the experimental group II from $0\;to\;3^{rd}$ day except from $1^{st}\;to\;2^{nd}$ day. And the occupation rate of wound healing in the experimental group II was higher than that of the control group from $1^{st}\;to\;8^{th}$ day except from $2^{nd}\;to\;3^{rd}$ day. According to concentration of green tea extract increased, the wound contracted more vigorously in earlier period. The tensile strength of the experimental group I and II was significantly higher than that of the control group(p<0.05). And that of the experimental group I was also higher than in the experimental group II(p<0.05). The number of S. intermedius in the experimental group I and II was decreased more rapidly than that of the control group. From the $4^{th}$ to the $11^{th}$ day, the number of S. intermedius in the experimental group I was significantly lower than that of the experimental group II and the control group. And from the $4^{th}$ to the $7^{th}$ day, the number of S. intermedius in the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group. The histopathological findings of the experimental group I and II were similar to those of the control group on the $1^{st}\;and\;4^{th}$ day. On $14^{th}$ day, reepithelialization was completed in the experimental group I and II except the control group. Higher wound contraction rate, better bacteriocidal action, higher tensile strength and better histopathological findings were observed in the experimental group I and II than in the control group. These results suggest that the topical application of green tea extract can promote contaminated wound healing in dogs.

Modified rush immunotherapy (IT), by combination of rush IT and conventional IT, provides a faster method to reach maintenance dose, leading to higher patient adherence when compared with conventional IT, decreasing systemic adverse reactions when compared with a standard rush IT. Ten atopic dogs of this study include fulfillment of Favrot's criteria. Offending allergens were identified by the use of IDST. During the induction period, the dogs were received a total of 10 injections. Five injections were administrated every 30 minutes in a day with gradually increasing amounts and concentrations of allergens, and the last 5 injections were administered every 3 days. The efficacy of 10-injection induced mRIT was assessed using the canine atopic dermatitis extent and severity index (CADESI). During maintenance period, reduction rate from baseline scores varied between 3.2% and 60.9% and the after 6 months of therapy for CADESI-03 score in 6 of the 10 dogs. Adverse reactions were not observed in these dogs during induction period by mRIT with 10 injections. Based on these results, our modified rush IT protocol is considered to be a useful protocol to treat canine atopic dermatitis.

A 4-year-old female Shih-tzu with severe episcleral congestion and buphthalmos in left eye was referred to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Chonnam National University in October 1998. During two months in local veterinary clinics, the dog had been treated unsuccessfully with tarsorrhaphy and antibiotics. By history taking, cause of the glaucoma was ascertained as accidental nonpenetrated cornea trauma by owner, Ophthalmic examination revealed that the left eye was buphthalmic with severe episcleral congestion, pain and fever. The direct pupillary light response could not be evaluated in the left eye, but right eye had normal reaction. The intraocular pressure was 4.5 mmHg in the right eye and 33 mmHg in the left eye, as measured with a Schiotz tonometer, Ultrasonographic finding revealed hyperechoic vitrous body and central echofree material. The Schirmer tear test showed 20 mm in the left eye and 8 mm in the right eye. The hematologic examination revealed monocytosis. The initial medical treatment was admitted, but there was no response. Transpalpebral enucleation in the left eye under inhalation anesthesia with enflurane 1.2 vol% in oxygen was performed. The day after operation the left eye ravealed no exudate, and pain, and the systemic vital signs were normal. The prognosis is excellent.

In order to investigate the effect of sulfamonomethoxine on the thyroid gland, healthy mongrel dogs were selected at random. The body weights of these animals ranged between 1850 and 2050g at the beginning of the experiment. The 12 dogs used in this work were allotted to groups of two. Dogs in one group served as controls and the others were administered sulfamonomethoxine of 50 mg/kg/day for 15 weeks. The results obtained in this work were summerized as follows: 1. Mean body weights of experimental dogs revelled a slow increasing tendency but weights of thyroid glands were increased highly. 2. Thyroid follicles were atrophied significantly in accordance with experimental term and their colloidal substance was not found on stained sections. 3. It indicated the appearance of typical hyperplastic goiter. New follicular epithelial cells which were changed into hypertrophic cuboidal and columnar in type showed degeneration and necrosis and those cells multiplied difusely and made new small follicles.

CJ-10882, (E)-[(3-Cyclopentyloxy-4-methoxyphenyl)methylene]hydrazine-carboxamide, is a newly developed type IV phosphodiesterase isozyme (PDE IV) inhibitor. To investigate the subacute toxic effects of CJ-10882, it was administered to both male and female dogs at 0, 25, 50, 100 or 200 mg/kg/day orally for up to 2 weeks. During the test period, clinical signs, mortality, body weight, food consumption, ophthalmoscopy, urinalysis, hematology, serum biochemistry, gross finding, organ weight, and histopathology were evacuated. Several clinical signs were observed in treated dogs at above 25 mg/kg, including salivation and vomiting. A reduction in the body weight was observed in both sexes at above 50 mg/kg. There were no treatment-related effects on mortality, ophthalmoscopy, urinalysis, hematology, sect biochemistry, necropsy findings, and histopathology in any treatment group. The results of this study demonstrate that CJ-10882, a selective Inhibitor of the type IV class of PDE, may cause effects on gastrointestinal tract and salivary glands. Therefore, these organs should be closely examined in studies with other PDE IV inhibitors.

A Cocker spaniel (7-year-old, female) was presented with one week of anorexia, halitosis, oral ulcer, intermittent vomiting, acute weight loss and 3-day history of oliguria. The patient was diagnosed with acute on chronic kidney disease and pancreatitis. Hemodialysis was continued three times a week (total 7 sessions) with improved clinical signs and kidney panel, but presented with another episode of abdominal distention, respiratory distress, and large bowel diarrhea. Echocardiography revealed nearly totally occlusive thrombus in the cranial vena cava, as well as a right atrial mass of approximately $2cm{\times}1cm$. The patient was treated with catheter removal, thrombolysis and anticoagulation therapy with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator. During anticoagulation therapy, size of atrial thrombus was not changed and heart function was not improved after treatment. Since clinical signs were deteriorated, the patient was euthanized by owner's request. Catheter-related giant thrombus in right atrium is a rare complication and treatment guideline for atrial thrombus does not exist. This case is first report of hemodialysis catheter-induced thrombus in Korea.

The purposes of the present study were to compare the effects of viscoelastic materials available in phacoemulsification in dogs and to evaluate $ARTZ^{\circledR}$ as their substitute. Six eyes from the healthy adult dogs were used in each group with different viscoelastic materials, $Healon$^{\circledR}, Viscoat^{\circledR}$ and $Occucoat^{\circledR} and ARTZ^{\circledR}$. The phacoemulsification was carried out with surgical micmscope(Leica M65l, Germany) and pbacoemulsiscation gystemGfidek 6000, Japan). $ARTZ^{\circledR}$ had lower pseudoplasocity than other viscoelastics. There was not significant difference in phacotime, rate of posterior capsule rupture, incidence of the intraocular inflammation among the viscoelastic materials. The corneal thickness in all groups was significantly increased in a day after operation and decreased gradually. However $ARTZ$^{\circledR}$ had more time to recover the preoperative thickness than the others. CoBiunctival congestion in the group with $ARTZ^{\circledR}$ was more severe but. there were no postoperative posterior capsule opacity and visual loss. The present study indirated that $ARTZ^{\circledR}$ could be used as viscoelastic material in dogs with respect to the vision after surgery.
