Utilização de mucosa oral e retalho cutâneo de padrão axial da artéria epigástrica superficial caudal em reconstrução prepucial de um cão : relato de caso

Abstract

A dog of approximately four years of age was treated at the Veterinary Hospital of the Federal University of Mato Grosso, presenting approximately 80% of the penisexpoused. Preputial reconstruction was performed using oral mucosa and axial pattern flap of the caudal superficial epigastric artery following a technique described only once based on the literature consulted. The findings of the present case suggest that the oral mucosa can be used with the purpose of replacing the preputial mucosa in cases that need reconstruction.
