A 3-month-old male DSH cat was presented with a history of lethargy, anorexia, dysuria, urinary incontinence, dermatitis and swelling in the perineal area following a road traffic trauma. Retrograde positive-contrast urethrography revealed an intra-pelvic urethral rupture which was managed by performing transurethral catheterisation. Due to accidental removal, the case was presented for re-examination following a progressive urine scald dermatitis several days later. So, surgical placement of cystostomy tube was performed. The cat regained his ability to urinate normally a week later and the catheter was withdrawn. The extensive perineal dermatitis due to urine scald necessitated delayed primary closure. Topical and systemic antibiotics were administered for 2 weeks and second intention wound healing was completed after 5 weeks.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Gastroschisis belongs to common developmental anomalies. The aim of surgical management is to restore the integrity of the abdominal wall and to insert the bowel into the abdominal cavity with the use of the primary or staged closure technique.The objective of this paper is to analyze our 20-year experience with surgical treatment of gastroschisis with primary and staged closure, to compare the postoperative course for the said techniques as well as to identify factors influencing the course and early results of treatment.METHODS: The research materials comprise of a retrospective analysis of medical history of patients treated at the Surgery Clinic in Poznan in the years 2000-2019. 59 patients were operated on: 30 girls and 29 boys.Surgical treatment was performed with the use of primary closure in 33% of the cases, whereas the staged silo closure was performed in 67% of the cases. RESULTS: Postoperative analgosedation was used for 6 days on average after primary closures, and for 13 days on average after staged closures. Incidence frequency of generalized bacterial infection was 21% for primary closures and 37% for staged closures. Infants treated with staged closure began enteral feeding considerably later (day 22) than those treated with primary closure (day 12). CONCLUSIONS: It is not possible to indicate clearly which surgical technique is superior to the other on the basis of the results obtained. When choosing the treatment method, the patient's clinical condition, associated anomalies and the medical team's experience must be taken into consideration.

Oesophageal disorders are relatively uncommon in large animals. Oesophageal obstruction is the most frequently encountered clinical presentation in bovine and it may be intraluminal or extra luminal (Haven, 1990). Intraluminal obstruction or “choke” is the most common abnormality that usually occurs when foreign objects, large feedstuff, medicated boluses, trichobezoars, or oesophageal granuloma lodge in the lumen of the oesophagus. Oesophageal obstructions in bovine commonly occur at the pharynx, the cranial aspect of the cervical oesophagus, the thoracic inlet, or the base of the heart (Choudhary et al., 2010). Diagnosis of such problem depends on the history of eating particular foodstuff and clinical signs as bloat, tenesmus, retching, and salivation

A 65-year-old woman with a previous history of bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy had peritoneal cysts, increasing in size over 15 years and an increasing cancer antigen 19–9 (CA 19–9) level. The size of the cysts eventually reached 86 mm and 70 mm. As malignant transformation of endometriosis was suspected, we performed peritoneal cystectomy and hysterectomy. Histopathology revealed seromucinous borderline tumours (SMBTs) derived from endometriosis. One month after surgery, her CA 19-9 level had decreased. It is rare for SMBT to occur after bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy; surgical management is the best treatment at present.
