This paper describes a case of laparoscopic-assisted ovariohysterectomy in a female cat presenting pyometra and mammary fibroadenomatous hyperplasia. Using four portals, mesovarium were ligated by titanium ligature clips whereas the uterine vessels were occluded by video-assisted conventional ligatures. There were no postoperative complications. Video-assisted technique can be an alternative method for treatment of pyometra and cystic endometrial hyperplasia in female cats.

O presente relato descreve a realização de criptorquectomia, ressecção de cisto prostático e herniorrafia perineal vídeolaparoscópicas em um cão da raça Collie que apresentou recidiva dos sinais clínicos após redução cirúrgica convencional. Pela cirurgia laparoscópica, com três portais retroumbilicais, localizou-se um testículo intrabdominal, que foi removido após a aplicação de clipes de titânio no mesórquio e nos vasos testiculares. Verificou-se também a presença de um cisto prostático que foi drenado por punção transparietal com agulha e, em seguida, realizaram-se a ressecção da parede e omentopexia na cavidade cística. Na avaliação da cavidade pélvica, verificou-se que o tamanho do defeito herniário permitia ser manejado por laparoscopia. Aplicou-se uma sutura intracorpórea no padrão colchoeiro abrangendo músculo coccígeo e elevador do ânus. O procedimento total durou aproximadamente 140 minutos, não havendo complicações. Conclui-se que a cirurgia laparoscópica pode ser empregada no tratamento de cisto prostático e na herniorrafia perineal de cães.This research describes the cyst resection of the prostate, perineal hernia and laparoscopic criptorquidectomia of a Collie dog, which showed clinical signs of recurrence after conventional hernia surgery. By mean three retroumbilical portals,an intraabdominal testicle was located through laparoscopic surgery. It was removed after the application of titanium clips in mesorquio and pots testicules. A prostate cyst was noticed that was drained by puncture with a transparietal needle. An incision was made in the wall and omentopexia of the cystic cavity was performed. In the evaluation of the pelvic cavity, it was found that the hernial defect was small and could be managed by laparoscopy. An intracorporeal suturing pattern was applied which covered the coccygeal muscle and lifted the anus. The entire procedure took about 140 minutes, with no complications. It was concluded that laparoscopic surgery can be used to treat prostate cysts and the perineal hernia of dogs.

The use of laparoscopic surgery for the removal of cystic calculi in three dogs was reported. Three trocars were used, one in the ventral midline (10mm) and the others in the right (10mm) and left (5mm) flanks. The calculi were removed and the bladder was sutured with intracorporeal technique in two layers, a simple continuous pattern and interrupted or continuous Lembert pattern. No postoperative complications were observed. One patient had a recurrence of urolithiasis, attributed to inadequate conservative treatment and to the lack of an appropriate diet. It was submitted to another similar videolaparoscopic cystotomy without complication. The proposed technique is appropriate and an alternative to conventional cystotomy for treatment of canine vesical urolithiasis.Descreve-se a remoção de cálculos vesicais por cirurgia laparoscópica em três cães utilizando-se três portais (dois de 10mm e um de 5mm) dispostos na linha média ventral e nas paredes abdominais direita e esquerda. Após a remoção das litíases, realizou-se sutura intracorpórea da parede vesical, em padrão contínuo simples, abrangendo as quatro camadas do órgão e em Lembert contínuo ou interrompido, incorporando a serosa e a muscular. Não houve complicações pós-operatórias. Um dos pacientes apresentou recidiva da doença, condição atribuída ao manejo dietético deficiente no pós-operatório. Esse paciente foi novamente submetido à cistotomia laparoscópica similar sem a ocorrência de complicações. A técnica proposta foi adequada e pode ser utilizada como alternativa para cistotomia por celiotomia no tratamento de litíases vesicais em cães.

Avaliou-se uma nova técnica de colopexia laparoscópica, sem necessidade de suturas intracorpóreas em cães, utilizando a implantação de segmento de tela de polipropileno em 11 animais. As superfícies serosas do cólon descendente e parede muscular foram mantidas em contato com o implante posicionado por meio de lesão produzida no mesocólon e sob o retalho bipediculado de músculo transverso abdominal. As extremidades da tela foram unidas com a aplicação de clipe de titânio. Os procedimentos duraram 36,00±13,15min, sem a ocorrência de complicações. No período pós-operatório, foi verificada a manutenção da colopexia em sete animais, a formação de fixação parcial entre o intestino e a parede em três cães, e a não formação de aderências do cólon em um paciente. Conclui-se que o procedimento proposto é viável para cães, porém necessita de ajustes técnicos.A new laparoscopic colopexy technique was tested in dogs without intracorporeal sutures. The use of polypropylene mesh in eleven mongrel dogs was evaluated. The serosal surface of the descendent colon and transverse abdominal muscle were put in contact with the mesh application, taking into consideration that the polypropylene implant was positioned through the mesocolon and under the muscle flap. Finally, the extremities of the mesh were clipped. The procedures lasted 36:00±13:15min, without any kind of complications. In the post-operative period, adequate colopexy in seven dogs was observed. In three dogs the colopexy was partial and in one the bowel did not adhere to the muscles or mesh. The proposed procedure is viable for dogs, however, it is necessary to make some adjustments.
