Case Report

Laparoscopic Portosystemic Shunt Attenuation in Two Dogs

*** Multimeda Content ***

Jonathan M. Miller, DVM and J. David Fowler, DVM, MS, Diplomate ACVS

From the Department of Small Animal Clinical Sciences (Miller), Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, Virginia 24061 and Western Veterinary Specialty Center (Fowler), 1635 17th Avenue Southwest, Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2T 0E5.

Laparoscopic portosystemic shunt attenuation was successfully performed in two dogs. Aberrant vessels were noted on visual examination of the abdominal vasculature. Cellophane bands were placed around the vessel laparoscopically for attenuation. The dogs had minimal postoperative morbidity, and there was biochemical evidence of adequate shunt ligation at follow-up examination.
