The aim of this study was to evaluate the alteration of the cellular components of the peritoneal lavage and to characterize the cicatricial remodelling, at the macro and microscopic level, produced by the experimental use of bovine pericardium xenograft (XPB) not treated as a lining of the end to end-jejunal terminal anastomosis in a canine model. Nine canines between 4 and 6 years of age, 15-30 kg of weight, and both sexes were randomly distributed in three experimental groups (A, B and C for a second celiotomy at 5, 10 and 30 days post-surgery) of three animals each, to which an untreated XPB was placed as a lining of the jejunal enterectomy. The results of the analysis of the cellular components of the peritoneal fluid showed a significant increase in lymphocytes, macrophages and eosinophils 30 days after the surgery and to a lesser extent 10 and 5 days after the intervention. In the...

En el presente estudio se han utilizado dos grupos experimentales de equinos sometidos a enterectomía término-terminal con y sin xenoinjerto de pericardio bovino, con el objetivo de evaluar la viabilidad del xenoinjerto de pericardio bovino; cuantificando el dolor post anastomosis yeyunal en base a tablas de evaluación estandarizadas, analizando los cambios celulares y organolépticos en el líquido peritoneal y examinando el proceso de remodelación macroscópica e histológica de la zona quirúrgica, basados en la hipótesis de que el xenoinjerto garantiza un mejor proceso de remodelación cicatricial y recuperación post operatoria.

The aim of this study was the evaluate the frequency and morphometric characterization of ectopic Fasciola hepatica in the lung. For this, 2066 lungs of cattle were evaluated in the municipal abattoir of Cajamarca, Peru, between July and August 2018. The lungs presenting macroscopic lesions were reviewed to determine the presence or absence of ectopic Fasciola hepatica. The frequency of erratic pulmonary fasciolosis was 3.68 ± 0.8%. Morphometrically, the ectopic Fasciola hepatica maintains a foliaceous shape, with pale pinkish to grey-brown coloration, measuring 10.36 ± 3.44 mm long and 4.31 ± 0.97 mm wide, and without evidence of oviposition.
