METHODS: Retrospective medical records review (2019-2022).
RESULTS: Twenty-seven dogs (n = 15 Chow Chow, n = 12 Shar-Peis) were included, aged 1.9 ± 1.5 years (0.5-6.5 years). Presenting complaints included recurrent episodes of ocular inflammation (n = 13, 48.1%), blepharospasm (n = 10, 37.0%), corneal ulcers (n = 8, 29.6%), entropion (n = 6, 22.2%), and impaired vision (n = 4, 14.8%). Brow skin was removed as follows: (i) First incision parallel and 10-15 mm dorsal to upper lid, slightly extending beyond medial/lateral canthi; (ii) second incision forming an arc with its apex 15-35 mm dorsal to the first incision; and (iii) standard two or three layers closure. In 22/27 dogs, a Stades-like procedure was performed by removing a 2-4 mm strip of skin above eyelid margin and leaving it to heal by secondary intention (no sutures). At last recheck (follow-up 354.5 ± 187.8 days), 19/27 dogs (70.4%) had an adequate eyelid conformation, 7/27 dogs (25.9%) were considered under-corrected, and 1/27 dogs (3.7%) was over-corrected. Most owners (81.5%) were satisfied with the surgical results. Most cases (96.3%) had no recurrence of the clinical signs during the entire follow-up period.
CONCLUSIONS: Brow rhytidectomy ± Stades-like procedure provide good cosmetic and clinical outcomes in Chow Chow and Shar-Pei dogs, although under correction may occur in severely affected dogs and with advancing time.
方法:回顾性病历回顾(2019-2022)。
结果:27只狗(n=15周,n=12Shar-Peis)包括在内,年龄1.9±1.5岁(0.5-6.5岁)。主诉包括反复发作的眼部炎症(n=13,48.1%),眼睑痉挛(n=10,37.0%),角膜溃疡(n=8,29.6%),内翻(n=6,22.2%),和视力受损(n=4,14.8%)。按如下方式去除眉皮:(i)第一个切口平行于上眼睑背侧10-15mm,稍微延伸超过内侧/外侧canthi;(ii)第二个切口形成弧形,其顶点在第一个切口的背侧15-35毫米处;(iii)标准的两层或三层闭合。在22/27的狗中,aStades-like程序是通过去除眼睑边缘上方2-4mm的皮肤条,并通过次要意图(无缝线)使其愈合。末次复查(随访354.5±187.8天),19/27只狗(70.4%)有足够的眼睑构象,7/27只狗(25.9%)被认为矫正不足,1/27只狗(3.7%)被过度矫正。大多数所有者(81.5%)对手术结果感到满意。大多数病例(96.3%)在整个随访期间没有临床症状复发。
结论:Brow除皱术±Stades样手术在ChowChow和Shar-Pei犬中提供了良好的美容和临床结果,尽管严重受影响的狗可能会出现矫正不足,并且随着时间的推移。
