Cicatricial evaluation in bitches submitted to unilateral mastectomy with the use of KetanSerin and Asiaticoside Tarter
Abstract. Mammary neoplasms have been common in bitches because it is an aggressive disease the treatment of election is the surgical withdrawal of neoplasia along with the affected and adjacent breast, and in certain cases withdrawn from the whole mammary chain. The surgical procedure titled mastectomy is invasive and in certain cases of a large extent being associated with increased surgical stress, pain and greater incidence of postoperative complications such as inflammation of the tissue and deiscence of points. The objective of working with the use of Regepil® (fine gold animal health) was to reduce healing time consequently to reduce the days of withdrawal of the points. In the study, 10 dogs of different races and ages were used, all females with a diagnosis of mammary neoplasia confirmed by clinical evaluation and complementary examination. The animals were divided into two groups, one with the use of the regepil®, and another without use. Regepil® is a ketanserine and asiaatoside-based healing. Ketanserine is an antagonist of serotonin receptors that promotes the increase in microvascularization, providing greater effectiveness of healing in the initial phase. Asiaticoside is a compound of Asian Centella, which acts by stimulating the synthesis of type I collagen and the maturity of collagen network, promoting higher in the healing process. The use of the Ketanserine and Asiaticoside tartrate in the bitches submitted to unilateral mastectomy was effective in the healing process of surgical wounds.
