Purpose: The aim of this study is to observe the compressive fracture strength of the crown according to the direction of the occlusal force of the mandibular canine and carnassial of the small dog. Methods: The abutment models of mandibular canine and carnassial were prepared, specimens of zirconia, PMMA and Ni-Cr alloy were produced. The experimental jig was fabricated with Co-Cr alloy and buried in acrylic resin after make tilt to specified angle. The specimen was attached to a jig and loaded using a universal testing machine until the specimen fractured. Results: The compressive fracture strengths of CXZ and CXP specimens were found to be 999.21 ± 31.15 N on average and 731.42 ± 59.13 N on average. And CZZ and CZP specimens were 730.48 ± 70.14 N on average and 377.65 ± 11.87 N on average. CXN and CZN specimens were not fractured. In addition, MZZ and MZP specimens were 746.46 ± 50.75 N and 258.64 ± 31.86 N on average. The MZN specimens were not fractured. Conclusion: Zirconia has compressive fracture strength that can be applied to small dog's canine and Carnassial prosthetics, while PMMA has inadequate strength to small dog's carnassial prosthesis.

A 5-year-old, male mixed breed dog was presented to Gyeongsang National University Animal Hospital for bilateral mandibular open fracture by bite. The dog had loss of the teeth and injury of the oral mucosa. Radio-graphic and blood examinations were conducted. Fracture lines were observed between first premolar and second premolar, but temporomandibular luxation was not observed on radiographs. In serum analysis, elevated levels of CPK and LDH were found. The dog was anesthetized and prepared for aseptic surgery. Acrylic external skeletal fixator with Kirschiner wire was applied. Pin loosening and malalignment of the right fracture line was observed at 7 weeks after surgery. We applied Kirschner-Ehmer fixator and half pins during the second surgical procedure. At 4 weeks after a second surgical procedure, the fixator and pins were removed from mandible. The fractures were healed with no complications.

The medical records of 69 dogs with history of bite wounds, between 1998 and 2006, were reviewed. Information obtained from these files included the general statistics of the patients (sex, age, breed, weight), season on occurrence of injuries, body areas wounded, therapeutic regime used and mortality rates. Intact male dogs were more frequently bitten. The weight distribution of the bitten population was varied 41% for small, 16% for medium and 17% for large dogs. The highest incidence was in young animals. The distribution of bite wound injuries over the year was recorded with peaks in April (13%), March (12%), August (12%) and September (10%). The common regions of injury were the head (22), fore-limbs (17), hind-limbs (15), abdomen (15), thorax (15) and neck (14). Mortality tends to be increased in cases of thoracic or abdominal injury. The results about the prevalence of bite wounds in Daejeon and Chungnam area are intended to use as a reference data in veterinary practice.

The purposes of this study were to identify the contents, frequency of use, and the rationales of folk remedies frequently used for first aid at home for stomachache, vomiting, strain, food poisoning, vaginal bleeding, or wounds of snake or dog bite, or bee sting. As the method of the study, data were collected by conducting a questionnaire of 185 persons, who filled it out or who were interviewed from May to August in 1998. The collected data was analyzed by using frequency and the rationales for the contents of the folk remedies were described base on literatures. The results were as follows,. 1. The folk remedies for stomachache in frequency order were 'warming the abdomen', 'rubbing the abdomen with a hand', or 'pricking a finger to bleed', which have the rationals. 2. The folk remedies for vomiting in frequency order are 'drinking water of watery radish' and 'pricking a finger to bleed', which have the rationales. 3. The folk remedies for strain in frequency order are 'soaking the affected area into cold water or applying an ice pack' and 'after soaking jasmine in water, making a dough with flour, and then attaching it on the affected area', which have the rationales, Additionally, although the frequencies are low, 'drinking brewed Achyranthis Radix' and 'applying brewed leaves and stalks of Sambuci Cortex' have the rationales. 4. The folk remedies for food poisoning in frequency order are 'drinking black beans and licorice brewed together' and 'eating mung beans', which have the scientific grounds. 5. The folk remedies for bloody discharge in frequency order are 'drinking brewed lotus root' and 'eating boiled chicken stuffed with root of bell-flower'. However, 'drinking brewed Thujae orientalis Folium' has the rationales. 6. The folk remedy for snake bite wounds that has the scientific grounds is 'sucking blood by a person without hurt in the mouth'. However, quite a lot of people apply alum or soy paste, which has no rationales. 7. The folk remedies for the bee sting in frequency order are 'after removing the sting, applying soy paste or sauce' and 'applying saliva'. No rationales for 'applying saliva' have been found. 8. The folk remedy for the dog bite wound that has the rationales is 'applying juice of leaves or stalks of Xanthii Fructus'. However, 85% of surveyed people use remedies that have no scientific grounds, such as 'applying burnt dog hair mixed with (sesame) oil' and 'applying soy paste or sauce'. Various materials are used in folk remedies for first aid treatment as shown above. Some of the folk remedies have the rationales since their medicinal actions have been found. However, the medicinal actions of the majority have not been found, but only known that they are effective, Especially for the materials except botanical drugs, they are used without knowing the effects since their components and pharmacognosies have not been described in any literature. The results of this research may be used for materials to educate the surveyed people or to consult them. Accordingly, the folk remedies that have the rationales are required to continue to study to find out the effects.

A 7-year-old intact female Maltese dog presented with a history of bite wounds. Physical examination revealed labored breathing, four puncture wounds with subcutaneous emphysema of the thorax, and paradoxical respiratory movement of the right thoracic wall. On radiography, a segmental fracture of the right 7th rib and a single fracture of the 8th rib were evident on the dorsal thorax. An inward displacement of the fractured segment and contusion of the right caudal lung lobe were identified with computed tomography. A diagnosis of pseudo-flail chest was made. Exploratory thoracotomy revealed a full-thickness muscular defect, a marked discoloration of the right caudal lung lobe, a segmental fracture of the right 7th rib, and a single fracture of the right 8th rib. Necrotic tissues were removed using surgical debridement. The fractured 7th and 8th ribs were corrected using a single interfragmentary wiring technique. The thoracic wall was reconstructed using the latissimus dorsi muscle flap. Additional thoracic stabilization using a thermoplastic splint was applied to correct paradoxical respiratory movement. The external splint was removed 4 weeks postoperatively. There was no evidence of respiratory abnormalities 18 months postoperatively.

We describe the case of a Jindo dog that presented with a 2-month history of an abscess-like mass on the skin of the left hip. The patient was initially diagnosed with a suspected insect bite and was treated with a topical dressing. After observing no improvements, surgical debridement was done to remove the abscess. Nine days after surgery, the patient started showing severe anorexia, vomiting, lethargy, and oliguria. Azotemia was detected, and the patient was diagnosed with acute kidney injury. Ultrasonography depicted an abdominal mass (4.6 × 7.5 cm) in the right ureter, and severe hydronephrosis in the right kidney. The patient was euthanatized. Results of the necropsy, histopathologic examination, and immunohistochemistry for tumor cells, confirmed that the patient had developed hydronephrosis and disseminated histiocytic sarcoma which had metastasized to the lungs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of acute renal failure produced by ureter invasion and urinary tract obstruction resulting from the abdominal mass of disseminated histiocytic sarcoma in dogs.
