Abstract

Umbilical hernia is an anatomical abnormality in which the muscles around the umbilicus fail to close properly, causing part of the intestine or omentum to enter the hernia sac through the abdominal cavity. The purpose of this article is to present a case study of congenital umbilical hernia in cats, including methods of diagnosis, management, and treatment. A 3-month-old male local cat weighing 1.5 kg came with a lump in the abdominal area, accompanied by a ring and mass that could be pushed back in. According to the owner, the lump had been there since the cat was born and continued to grow over time. Based on the results of physical, clinical, and supporting examinations in the form of barium contrast X-rays, the cat was diagnosed with an umbilical hernia which is a congenital disease with a Fausta prognosis. Treatment is carried out by surgically repositioning the contents of the hernia in the form of intestines into the abdominal cavity and suturing. Postoperatively, the antibiotic cefotaxime injection was given, followed by oral antibiotics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, and topical antibiotic cream. On the 8th day after surgery, the case cat was declared cured with a dry and fused surgical wound, normal appetite, normal defecation and urination. It can be concluded that the surgical procedure and subsequent treatment successfully cured the hernia. Cats with umbilical hernias should be treated as soon as possible to prevent the hernia opening from getting bigger and causing conditions that endanger the cat's health.

Abstract

Mammary tumors in dogs are often mistaken for mastitis due to their very similar clinical symptoms. The purpose of this article is to provide information on the surgical management of chronic mastitis cases caused by fungal infections through the method of mastectomy. A Miki dog developed a lump in the fourth left mammary gland. Physical examination showed that the mass had a solid consistency. Hematology tests revealed lymphocytosis, microcytic anemia, and thrombocytopenia. Radiographic examination showed a radiopaque mass in the mammary gland area. Based on the physical examination, clinical signs, hematology, and supported by radiographic findings, the dog was temporarily diagnosed with a mammary tumor, and mastectomy surgery was performed. Postoperative tumor tissue was sent for histopathological examination at the Denpasar Veterinary Center, and the result showed no metastatic tumor cells, but fungal hyphae, macrophages, and lymphocytes were found. The dog was finally diagnosed with chronic mastitis due to a fungal infection. After surgery, the dog was treated with cefotaxime sodium injection (20 mg/kg body weight twice a day) and meloxicam injection (0.2 mg/kg body weight once a day). On the 4th day post-surgery, the treatment continued with cefixime trihydrate (10 mg/kg body weight twice a day for 7 days orally). Additionally, FuFang Ejiao Jiang was given to increase platelet production, 1 ml mixed with food. The wound was cleaned with chlorhexidine, Kenalog ointment was applied, and Enbatic powder was also used. The dog was declared healed on the 9th postoperative day with a dried wound, healed skin, good appetite and drinking, and normal urination and defecation. Biopsy of abnormal tissue is highly recommended to identify the type of tumor for considering therapy plans. However, mastectomy surgery is also necessary in this case because the dog had chronic mastitis, which could contribute to further complications.

Abstract

Ventral hernia, characterized by incomplete peritoneal closure in the abdominal midline, results in formation of a hernial ring permitting organ protrusion. This case report describes a 2-year-old, 3 kg female mixed-breed cat presenting with a reducible ventral abdominal mass persisting for two months. Physical examination revealed a palpable, reducible bulge with positive tissue elasticity. Radiographic confirmation identified omental and intestinal contents within the hernial sac. The patient underwent herniorrhaphy under general anesthesia induced by xylazine-ketamine combination (1 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg IV, respectively). Surgical management involved content reduction and anatomical layer closure. Postoperative care included intravenous cefotaxime (20 mg/kg q12h for 72 hours) transitioning to oral cefixime (10 mg/kg q12h for 96 hours). By postoperative day 8, complete recovery was evidenced by wound epithelialization, normal appetite, and unimpaired elimination. This case underscores the importance of prompt surgical intervention for ventral hernias to prevent incarceration complications.
