This study was performed to evaluate the postoperative heating process according to lameness degree, swelling, and muscle atrophy after femoral head and neck ostectomy on Retriever dogs with hip dysplasia and hindleg lameness. Femoral head and neck ostectomy (FHO) was performed for the repair of hip dysplasia in 4 Retriever dogs (5 hips) referred in veterinary medical teaching hospital of college of veterinary medicine, Konkuk University. Age (Mean $\pm$ SD) of patients was 10.3 $\pm$ 3.0 months (range,7 to 16 months) and body weight (Mean $\pm$ SD) was 28.2 $\pm$ 3.4 kg (range, 25 to 34 kg). After FHO, all cases are treated with carprofen (2.2 mg/kg, PO bid, tapering at interval 1-2 weeks) and physical therapy including passive range-of-motion exercises. In all cases, lameness degree was showed V at the next day after surgery, IV at 5 to 7 days, II-III at 30 to 35 days, II at 60 days, and I at 105 to 114 days. These results suggested that femoral head and neck ostectomy was able to be performed on large breed dogs with hip dysplasia and hindleg lameness.

This study was conducted to determine the content of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in meats available on the Korean markets. The analysis was carried out using following conditions; C18 column ($100{\times}2.1$ mm, 1.7 ${\mu}m$), mobile phase composed of DW (containing 0.1% formic acid): acetonitrile (containing 0.1% formic acid), binary pump at a flow rate of 0.3 ml/min and 5 ${\mu}l$ of injection volume, MS/MS detector with ESI positive mode. The calibration range of five NSAIDs showed linearity ($r^2{\geq}0.99$) at concentration range of 3.125~200 ${\mu}g$/kg. The recoveries in fortified muscle more than 78.7~100.3%. The detection limits for meloxicam, ketoprofen, flunixin, carprofen and tolfenamic acid were 3.5, 1.6, 1.7, 9.8 and 4.8 ${\mu}g$/kg, respectively. We also monitored NSAIDs residue in cattle muscle 51 samples. The test results, NSAIDs were all not founded.
