Stomach torsion refers to a disease that turns from the right side to the left and is squeezed from the end of the liver and esophageal, which causes the content of the contents of the stomach to keep pushing back. If the stomach is reversed, because there are many gases in the stomach, it will not be discharged, it will grow the stomach, and it is called the stomach. If the degree of stomach torsion is not serious, and you can also discharge the gas in the stomach a little, it may not cause gastric dilation; if the twisting is more powerful, it will develop into a rapid and fatal acute abdomen. This disease is common in large dogs aged 2 to 10. The incidence of small and medium -sized dogs is relatively low, and cats are rare.
Recently, a dog with a stomach twisted. The owner said that it often had no spirit, his appetite was not good, and he groaned, retching, sometimes spitting his mouth, and he couldn't afford to lie on the ground. He felt very rapid. The stomach twisted will cause the spray door and the pyloric door to block, and the gas liquid in the stomach can not be spit out or in the intestine. I heard the drum sound when the percussion diagnosed, and sometimes I heard the sound of water shooting. If the condition is already serious, it will cause it to have difficulty breathing. The mucosa becomes pale and shock. If it is not treated in time, it will die within a few hours in a short period of time.
Surgical treatment
The cause of this disease is not very clear, but it is generally closely related to the breeds of dogs, age, breeding management, and environmental factors. The pylorus of the dog's stomach is large. After eating it, especially after eating, it will cause bloating, increased volume, increased weight, and may cause stomach sagging and ligament breaks. In addition, after eating food, the dog is in an empty place outside, jumping, rolling, jumping and jumping, etc. This will also lead to this disease, which is one of the causes. If the gastrointestinal function is poor, the digestive function is not good, malnutrition, vitamin deficiency, and the proportion of calcium and phosphorus is not coordinated. These are one of the reasons. The dog's stomach is a single -room stomach with a large volume and a curved pear -shaped. The left end swells, consisting of the bottom of the stomach and the spray door. The right side is the pyloric cylindrical shape, and the two are the stomach. The gastric mucosa of the dog has all glandular bodies, the glandular gland is very small, the gastrointestinal glands are large, showing reddish brown, and the gland areas are relatively small, which is gray -white.
Surgical treatment
According to the age of breeding environment and clinical symptoms of the breed of dogs, diagnosis can be made. Gastrointestinal intubation and X -ray examination can be diagnosed. Generally, X -ray examination images of the right and back abdomen are better. The pylorus is located on the abdomen on the bottom of the stomach. If the diseased dog is seriously ill, it is necessary to prevent it from shock, and correspond to the corresponding treatment such as replenishment, strong heart, antibacterial and other corresponding treatment. If it has difficulty in breathing, the mucosa is pale, and there is a hypoxic phenomenon, it is necessary to give it oxygen, and at the same time, the gastric puncture should be performed to slowly discharge the gas in the stomach and reduce the pressure in the stomach. Gradually smaller. After the condition is stable, surgery should be performed as soon as possible, because the condition is developing rapidly, and stomach necrosis will occur in a short period of time. Surgery Chinese medicine checks the stomach and spleen, removes necrotic tissues, reset the reversible stomach, and fix it to prevent continuous reversal.
