Abstract:
... A pilot study was performed to investigate fibropapillomatosis (FP) recurrence rates after 940 nm-diode laser surgeries. Fifteen animals had a total of 274 tumors removed by diode laser. Cutaneous FP recurrence rates were evaluated during a period of 1-year. According to tumor sizes classification, 166 tumors (60.6%) were <1 cm, 67 tumors (24.5%) between 1-4 cm, 31 tumors (11.3%) >4-10 cm and 10 t ...

Abstract:
... Near infrared fluorescence guided surgery (NIRFGS) offers better distinction between cancerous and normal tissues compared to surgeries relying on a surgeon’s senses of sight and touch. Because of the greater accuracy in determining tumor tissue margins, NIRFGS within clinics continues to grow. However, NIRFGS lacks standardization of the indocyanine green (ICG) dose and the preoperative period al ...

Abstract:
... Epicardial pacemaker implantation can be performed as a lone procedure or in combination with another thoracic or abdominal surgery. This article reviews the current literature and describes a minimally invasive approach for epicardial pacemaker implantation in small animals. The principal advantage of epicardial pacing is that it avoids contact with blood and intracardiac structures and thereby a ...
