Summary

This study introduces a new single-incision laparoscopic ovariectomy technique in dogs using the SILS Port. Omitting the suspension suture reduced complications without increasing surgery time.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures
  • Canine Reproduction

Background:

  • Laparoscopic ovariectomy offers benefits over traditional surgery.
  • Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) aims to further minimize invasiveness.
  • Novel techniques are needed to optimize SILS procedures in veterinary medicine.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel single-incision laparoscopic ovariectomy technique in dogs.
  • To evaluate the use of the SILS Port (Covidien) for this procedure.
  • To assess the necessity and impact of a transabdominal suspension suture.

Main Methods:

  • A case series of 40 client-owned dogs undergoing ovariectomy.
  • Utilized a single 3 cm incision and the SILS Port device.

Published on: December 27, 2024

  • Compared outcomes with and without a transabdominal suspension suture.

    • Main Results:

    • Ovarian resection averaged 25.1 minutes.
    • Minor bleeding occurred in 5 dogs using the suspension suture.
    • Omitting the suspension suture reduced complications without affecting surgery duration.
    • Instrument collision increased without the suture, but visualization and maneuverability remained adequate.

    Conclusions:

    • Single-incision laparoscopic ovariectomy using the SILS Port is feasible in dogs.
    • A transabdominal suspension suture is not mandatory and may be associated with increased complications.
    • This technique offers a minimally invasive option for canine ovariectomy.
