PURPOSE: To evaluate bone healing in the extraction socket of the feline maxillary canine tooth after grafting. METHODS: Eighteen adult cats were submitted to unilateral extraction of maxillary canine tooth and divided into three groups. In group 1 (n=6), control, the extraction socket was left empty. In group 2 (n=6), the extraction socket was filled with autogenous cancellous bone from the iliac crest and in ...

Purpose: To evaluate the application of the maxillofacial miniplate 1.5 in the repair of unilateral mandibular osteotomies in cats. Methods: Twelve adult cats were divided into two groups. In group 1 (n=6), the osteotomy was performed in the body of the mandible, behind the 1st molar. In group 2 (n=6), the osteotomy was performed between the 4th premolar and 1st molar. The osteotomy was fixed with a titanium mi...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the use of maxillofacial miniplate 1.5 in the repair of segmental mandibular defects filled with autogenous bone in cats. METHODS: Twelve adult cats were divided into two groups. A segmental defect of 4mm was created in one of the hemimandibles and filled with autogenous iliac crest bone graft. The operated hemimandible was fixed with a 1.5mm titanium miniplate. In group 1 (n=6), the defect...
PURPOSE: To evaluate tympanic bulla healing after experimental ventral osteotomy in cats. METHODS: Twenty adult cats were submitted to unilateral ventral bulla osteotomy and divided into two groups: cats of A1 group (n=10) were euthanized at 8 weeks and cats of A2 group (n=10), at 16 weeks postoperative. RESULTS: Signs of Horner's syndrome or damage to the inner ear were not found. Open-mouth radiographs taken ...
PURPOSE: To evaluate tympanic bulla healing after experimental lateral osteotomy in cats. METHODS: Twenty adult cats were submitted to unilateral lateral bulla osteotomy and divided into two groups: cats of B1 group (n=10) were euthanized at 8 weeks and cats of B2 group (n=10), at 16 weeks postoperative. RESULTS: Oblique lateral radiographs taken immediately postoperative showed interruption in the contour of t...
OBJETIVO: Acompanhar o processo de consolidação óssea de ulnas osteotomizadas de coelhos tratados com cetoprofeno, por meio de programas computacionais. MÉTODOS: Os coelhos foram submetidos a osteotomia da ulna e divididos em dois grupos. No grupo A (n=10) os animais foram tratados com cetoprofeno (2mg.kg-1) durante cinco dias. O grupo B (n=5) serviu como controle. Os animais foram radiografados um dia após a o...
O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar os aspectos morfológicos da bulla tympanica após osteotomia ventral e lateral. Quarenta cães adultos foram distribuídos em dois grupos de 20 animais cada. No grupo A , os animais foram submetidos a osteotomia ventral da bulla tympanica e no grupo B, a osteotomia lateral da bulla tympanica. Cada grupo foi constituído de 2 subgrupos, de acordo com o período de observação: ...
