Comparación de la eficacia en la cicatrización de dos técnicas quirúrgicas ovariohisterectomia (lateral y medial) en Canis lupus familiaris en la clínica veterinaria Insta Vet en la ciudad de Guayaquil.

Abstract

In this titled comparison of the effectiveness in wound healing of two surgical techniques (lateral and medial) in Canis lupus familiaris, the healing time between the lateral and medial surgical techniques in female dogs was analyzed. This study was observational, descriptive, quantitative, and comparative. A sample of 100 females was divided into two groups: dogs operated on laterally (50 %) and medially (50 %). The study was conducted with the assistance of the P.U.S.H. scale. Regarding the amount of exudate in both techniques: abundant exudate in the medial method was 0.1 %, while in the lateral method it was 3 %. Moderate exudate in the medial technique was 3 % and in the lateral technique it was 3 %. Absence of exudate in the medial method was 46 % and in the lateral method it was 44 %. In contaminated sutures, the percentage in the medial method was 1 % and uncontaminated sutures were 49 %, while in contaminated sutures in the lateral method it was 3 % and uncontaminated sutures were 47 %. In levels of mild inflammation, in the medial surgical technique it was 13 % and the presence of acute inflammation was 37 %. Whereas, in the lateral surgical technique, mild inflammation was 10 % and acute inflammation was 40 %. Although no significant differentiation was observed in the healing time between both techniques, it was determined that the medial surgical intervention had results favoring the healing time.
