LUNVET 4-wavelength veterinary laser treatment was performed on a case of Urethrostomy, and the wound was recorded and photographed in stages to observe the recovery effect of the postoperative to determine and evaluate the effect of veterinary laser treatment. The results showed that, after four days of laser treatment, the cat's wound improved significantly, the wound was dry, no exudate was seen, the wound healed well, the congestion around the wound was eliminated, the pain response to the wound was not obvious, and the cat's appetite recovered. It can be seen that veterinary laser therapy, as an important rehabilitation physical therapy method, has a significant effect on promoting postoperative wound recovery.

2.1 Physical examination
The eyes, mouth and nose are acceptable, the abdomen is touched, the two kidneys are of uniform size, the surface is smooth, and the intestinal tube is soft. The bladder is bloated, the bladder is swollen and hard when touched, the abdominal pain is obvious, there is no urine discharge due to pressure, the heart sounds are strong, the base of the heart murmurs, the breath sounds are clear, and the breathing rate is fast.
2.2 Laboratory examination
2.2.1 Blood routine examination
Routine blood results showed an increase in leukocytes, mononuclear cells and lymphocytes, and acute or chronic inflammation.
2.2.2 Blood biochemical examination
Biochemical results showed that no systemic physiological abnormalities had occurred, and the slight increase in glucose might be related to stress. The results are shown in the table below.
2.2.3 Blood analysis examination
The results of the blood analysis showed that the ion disturbance was not significant, and there was mild metabolic acidosis with sufficient compensation. The results are shown in the table below.
2.2.4 Other laboratory tests
ELISA positive for FBNP
Fluorescence quantitative detection of card -SAA 57ug/ml, indicating acute inflammation.
Hemagglutination: APTT 134s (65-119); PT 16s (15-22).
2.3 Imaging examination
The results of X-ray examination are shown in the figure. It can be seen that the bladder is enlarged and the urethra is dilated, suggesting that there is urethral obstruction.
Note: X-ray images of the abdomen showed cystocele and urethra dilatation
According to clinical symptoms and X-ray examination, the cat was diagnosed as urethral obstruction caused by recurrent urethrostomy.
4.1 Treatment ideas
In view of the adhesion and urethral obstruction at the urethral stoma of the cat, bladder puncture was performed first to release the enlarged bladder, followed by a second urethral stoma operation after a comprehensive assessment of the physical condition, after which the animal was treated with laser to promote wound recovery.
4.2 Treatment options
4.2.1 Surgical treatment: urethrostomy operation
4.2.2 Drug treatment: give antibiotics and analgesics, such as Suno 0.1ml/kg, Mexime 0.1ml/kg, once a day; infusion to correct acid-base imbalance.
4.3 Veterinary laser therapy
l Program setting: Select in order, cat → skin → incision →8cm→ average power 1.0W to start treatment
l Irradiation method: non-contact laser irradiation, 2-3 cm away from the wound
l Treatment frequency: once a day, 7 days a course of laser therapy
Figure 4.3 Laser treatment process
Figure 4.4 Wound conditions from the first day to the fourth day of laser treatment
Note:
Day 1 |
The congestion around the wound, bleeding from the wound, and obvious pain. |
Day 2 |
The congestion around the wound, the bleeding decreased, and the pain was obvious. |
Day 3 |
The congestion around the wound subsided, there was no bleeding, and the pain subsided. |
Day 4 |
The congestion around the wound disappeared, the wound was dry, healed well, and the pain was mild. |
5.1 Comparison with the situation before treatment
On the first day after the operation, the cat's wound oozed blood seriously, large bruises could be seen around the wound, the pain was obvious when touching the wound, and the cant had a moderate appetite. After four days of veterinary laser treatment, the wound was significantly improved, it was dry, no exudate was seen, healed well, the congestion around the wound was eliminated, and the pain response to the touch of the wound was not obvious, the cat appetite was restored, laser for cats wound is successful.
5.2 Overall evaluation of the whole treatment process
In the overall process , no pain and no stimulation of animal laser treatment experience makes animals more cooperate with treatment, only after four days of wound recovery, visible laser treatment can speed up wound healing, improving microcirculation, accelerate aging waste discharge, make the bruise around the tissue quickly eliminated;It also can enhance the activity of immune cells, activate the immune system of the whole body, reduce the risk of infection, wound exudate decreased in the process , no wound infection; After treatment, the pain response of the animals was reduced and the appetite slowly recovered. The whole process of veterinary laser treatment is effective.
5.3 Advantages of animal laser therapy
5.3.1 Veterinary laser treatment can dilate blood vessels, increase blood flow, improve microcirculation, accelerate toxic substances and other aging waste discharge;
5.3.2 It can enhance the activity of immune cells, activate the immune system throughout the body, reduce the risk of infection and reduce inflammation；
5.3.3 It relieves pain;
5.3.4 It can promote tissue healing.
5.3.5 Veterinary laser treatment has no stimulation and no pain, and the animals cooperate well.
