To investigate the effect of neck collars for the protection of self-mutilation, attainable sites of the body in dogs with collars and durability of collars were examined for 7 days. The collars used in the present experiment were hand made plastic basket collar, IASIS$\^$R/ ( heat moldable plastics), commerical plastic and cardboard collars The hand made plastic basket collar was made of basket which could buy at any supermarkets. The dogs with hand made plastic basket collar and IASIS$\^$R/ which was cast from the neck to the scapular region could lick only on digits of the forelimb. However, the dogs with commercial plastic and cardboard collars could lick not only the digits of forelimb but femur and digits of the hindlimb. It was suggested that hand made plastic basket collar was superior to the other collars in easiness of putting, durability, protection of self mutilation and economy.

Seven patients with signs of metabolic bone disease clinically seen at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital of Seoul National University from May 1990 to February 1992 were evaluated retrospectively. 1. Clinical signs include bowed leg, deformity of spine, digestive disturbance, constipation, retarded growth, lameness and hindlimb paralysis. 2. Radiographical sings include generalized skeletal demineralization, decreased radiological contrast between skeleton and soft tissues, thinning of bone cortex and pathological fractures. The diagnosis of nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism resulting in metabolic bone disease caused by mineral imbalance was made based upon history, clinical signs, physical examination and radiographical signs.

Objectives : This experimental study was designed to investigate the effects of hormone changes in the rats with muscle atrophy in response to Strychnos nuxvonica L. Methods : 24 male rats with muscle atropht by hindlimb suspension method as experimental group and 6 normal male rats were used. Experimental group was administered Strychnos nuxvonica L. 3 times a day, 1mg/kg per one dosage P,O, After 2 to 4 weeks hormone changes in blood were analysed. Results and Conclusions : Norepinephrine and Epinephrine level in blood as they act neurotransmitting substances were significantly increased by administering Strychnos nuxvonica L.

Deformation of soft tissue is known inhomogeneous and non-linear in general. In this study, we propose a measurement methodology of local/global strain during soft tissue elongation precisely using laser extensometer which has high accuracy, resolution and is possible to measure global/local strain. The mechanical tensile test are performed on tibialis cranialis, flexor hallucis longus, extensor digitorum longus of swine hindlimb. In order to measure target displacement, reflective marker is attached to detect elongation on specimen using surgical adhesive. The result of this study is to show that laser extensometer is valid to measure longitudinal elongation which is inhomogeneous and non-linear fur soft tissue.

Eleven years old cocker spaniel referred to Veterianry Medical Teaching Hospital, Seoul National University was diagnosed as pheochromocytoma. The patient was transferred to the hospital after hit by car and the main clinical signs were tachypnea, tachycardia, edema of hindlimb and lethargy. On ultrasonographic examination, hyperechoic foci was detected and it was invaded into the caudal vena cava. Venography showed the filling defect and local dilation of the caudal vena. The diagnosis of pheochromocytoma is challenging due to the nonspecific clinical signs and severe concurrent disease in dogs. This report describes one dog with invasive pheochromocytoma in which radiography, ultrasonography and venacavography were key diagnositc tools. Ultrasonography was a usuful method for assessment of size, shape and margination of the tumor and invasiveness to the major vessels.

한국산 도롱뇽(Hynobius leechii) 유생의 다리 발생 과정을 관찰하고 잠재적 돌연변이 유발물질인 제-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG)과 잠재적 기형 유발물질인 retinol palmitate가 다리 발생에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 정상적인 개체에서 됫다리의 발생 단계는 외부와 내부의 형태적 특징을 기준으로 하여 7단계로 나누어 볼 수 있었으며 전연골세포의 밀집에 따른 골격형성은 다리 발생아의 근위부에서 시작하여 원위부로 진행됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 도롱뇽 유생을 MNNG(10 rpm)나 retinol palmitate(37.5 lpm)로 처리한 경우, 공통적으로 다리 원위부의 골격 형성이 억제되었으며, 특히 이러한 골격 형성 억제 현상은 처리시기가 이를수록 보다 심하게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 발생을 저해하는 물질에 대한 미분화 상태의 세포들의 반응성이 발생과정 중 특정 단계에 국한됨을 시사하는 것으로 해석된다.

A 8-year-old, intact female, 2.1 kg, yorkshire terrier dog was referred to Animal Medical Center, Chonbuk National University due to right hindlimb lameness. Orthopedic examinations revealed pain during extension and flexion on stifle joint, positive cranial drawer sign, positive tibial compression test and patella luxation. Radiography showed the cranial displacement of right tibia with mildly increasing the synovial volume. The surgical procedure involved radial osteotomy of the proximal tibia and fixation by 1.2 T-locking plate. At two weeks after surgery, the patient was able to weight-bearing and gait gradually improved. This case report describes circular Tibial Tuberosity Advancement (cTTA) surgical technique and the successful surgical repair of cranial cruciate ligament rupture a dog.

A 1-year-old castrated mixed-breed dog presented with diffuse, purple lesions arranged in an irregular patchy pattern, with a slight elevation on the right hindlimb extending from the tarsus joint to the upper region of the thigh. Dermatological examinations and fungal and bacterial cultures revealed no infectious agents. The therapeutic response to antibiotics and antifungal agents was negative. A histopathology examination of the lesion revealed vascular proliferation with vasodilation and numerous varying-sized vessels. Mast-cell-dominated perivascular cuffing was also noted. The dog was diagnosed with cutaneous angiomatosis due to diffuse lesions and the histopathology findings of hemangioma.
