If you perform a bilroth 2 and … , what do you have to do?
a. Cholecystectomy
b. Cholecystoduodenostomy
c. cholecystojejunostomy
c. cholecystojejunostomy- bc the duodenum was removed
Which CS of pyometra with remain the longest after OVH procedure?
anemia

segmental stabilization- this is only for thoracolumbar
Pic of a physeal fx and asked what it was?
a. Salter harris type 2
For the above case, if this was an 11 month old lab, how would you repair it?
a. Cross pins – bc if > 10 months you can use cross pins (if < 10mo use IM pin)

a. Locking plate in neutralization
b. Lag screw
c. Skewer pin
a. Locking plate in neutralization
Would we use a tension band on a long oblique fx?
NO- avulsion fx
Should we use a dynamic compression plate on the ilium?
no
T/F: use a screwer pin for a long oblique femoral fx
FALSE- never use screwer pins on femur
Which is most common w/ HBC?
anatomic degloving w/ crush injury
Dog had a penetrating wound & now when it urinates it dribbles urine out of a hole in it’s skin?
Fistula – bc it says urine we know its fistula bc bladder is epithelial tissue
Which true about gunshot wounds?
a. Caliber most important
b. All should be explored to determine damage
c. Velocity most important
c. Velocity most important
± Velocity = most important factor – higher velocity Æ greater diameter (area)
of trauma
Oronasal fistula caused by many things. In the cat when accompanied by pulmonary edema the
etiology is most likely?
electrical cord burns
Which option is most likely to reduce number of bacteria in wound w/o significant damage to
the tissues?
a. 20cc syringe and needle
b. Free flow
c. Machine
a. 20cc syringe and needle
With wound lavage you want moderate pressure using a syringe & 18-20G needle. Key is VOLUME of lavage fluid & moderate pressure (7-8psi is adequate)
Which type of debridement is NOT used for distal limbs?
a. Layered
b. En bloc
c. Autolytic
b. en bloc
En bloc – Similar to tumor excision, used on wounds w/ Extensive amount ofsurrounding tissue aka NOT the distal limbs
Layered – most commonly used method – begins at the surface & moves to depth of the wound (progresses in layers)
Which NOT an advantage of active drains over passive drains?
a. Decreased risk of infection
b. Decreased risk of maceration around drain opening
c. Ability to quantify drainage
d. Risk of part of the drain breaking off during removal is less
d. Risk of part of the drain breaking off during removal is less
skin flap: Transposition Axial or subdermal?
Transposition = Local flap: rectangular… Ex: Z-plasty, forelimb/flank fold flaps
Axial = Direct cutaneous vessels -> Better perfusion than pedicle flaps w/ just subdermal plexus. No length limitations like pedicle flaps, which must be < 3:1
Which 2 teeth are the carnassial?
upper 4th premolar and lower 1st molar
What tool is used to extract teeth w/o sx removal?
elevator
Which is indication for ER celiotomy?
uncontrolled abdominal hemorrhage
Celiotomy is a 3 layer closure…which layer is not always closed?
a. External rectus fascia
b. SQ
c. Skin
d. All 3 need to be closed always
b. SQ
Don’t need to close SQ in the caudal abdomen of cats (they get inflam. from
sutures there), very young/thin dogs (bc hard to find).
Which of the following would you use to close jejunum?
a. Double layer inverting
b. Appositional w/ inverting on top
c. Single layer inverting
d. Single layer simple continuous/interrupted
d. Single layer simple continuous/interrupted
Only use appositional on the SI bc don’t want an inverting pattern to compromise the lumen more. (3-4mm bites/apart). Can also use staples (also appositional).
6 mo V+ after eats, fine w/ water. Started at weaning?
Congenital pyloric stenosis
-Brachycephalic dogs (Boxers, Boston terriers); Cats: Siamese
**Starts at weaning – bc switch to solid foods.
Treatment for congenital pyloric stenosis?
Heineke Mikilicz best for congenital
Fredet-ramstedt only for congenital
Highly infiltrative Adenocarcinoma, what Sx?
Bilroth II
Adenocarcinoma = Aggressive Gastrectomy > 5cm margins.
o If non-resectable obstruction: Do Bilroth 1 or 2 as palliative bypass sx:
o Bilroth 1 = Pyloroectomy + Gastro-Duodenostomy (Prefer)
Remove all of dzed tissue. Double Appositional closure.
Disad: Difficult. “Dumping syndrome” – duodenum into stomach
o Bilroth 2 = Partial Gastrectomy + Gastro-Enterostomy
Do this if extensive gastric resection -> making gastro-
duodenostomy (Bilroth 1) impossible.
Lose Common BD (maybe pancreatic duct too) – Need to reroute
Complications: Alkaline gastritis, Blind loop syn., marginal ulcer
