Description
Summary:In veterinary surgery, the tradicional methods for the approximation of the edges of a wound following the surgical process of ovarian hysterectomy are often associated with complications such as pain, bleeding, hemorrhage, hematoma, intection and wound dehiscence. The introduction of synthetic tissue adhesives could be an alternative, due to their rapid application, bacteriological properties, minimal trauma, and tissue reaction. The following observational, comparative, and descriptive research aimed to evaluate the healing effect between N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBC) and polyglycolic acid (PA) in a population of 40 dogs (canis lupus familiaris), sujected to surgical sterilization of medial approach. For the investigation the patients were divided into two groups of 20 females each, the skin approximation technique was, for group A with tissue adhesive (NBC) and for group B a subcuticular closure with biomaterial suture (AC). The healing process was assessed using the Vancouver scale by direct observation on days 0,3,6 and 10 post-surgery. Student's t-test showed a statistically significant difference (t= 3.093, p=0.004). Therefore, it is concluded that suturing with N-butyl cyanoacrylate promotes mora effective healing compared to polyglycolic acid. En cirugía veterinaria los métodos tradicionales para la aproximación de los bordes de una herida posterior al proceso quirúrgico de ovario histerectomía, muchas de las veces se asocian a complicaciones como; dolor, hemorragia, hematoma, infección y dehiscencia de la herida. La introducción de adhesivos tisulares sintéticos podría ser una alternativa, por su rápida aplicación, propiedades bacteriológicas, mínimo traumatismo y reacción tisular. La siguiente investigación de tipo observacional, comparativo y descriptivo tuvo como objetivo evaluar el efecto cicatrizante entre el N-butil cianoacrilato (NBC) y el Ácido Poliglicólico (AC) en una población de 40 perros (canis lupus familiaris), sometidas a esterilización quirúrgica de abordaje medial.
