Abstract

Oral neoplasia are the fourth most common tumors seen in dogs accounting for 6-7% and 3% in cats. Mandibuletomy and maxillectomy remain the most indicated and effective treatment for the removal of benign and malignant oral tumors. Clinical findings, imaging and biopsy are essential tools needed to diagnose and stage oral neoplasia. The prognosis differs from one oral neoplasia to another and the aesthetic appearance and possible functional complications vary with the extent of the surgery. Overall, most clients reported to be satisfied with the results. This retrospective study aims to analyze the most common causes, together with the most reported breed, age, gender and location, that may lead to the need for mandibulectomy and/or maxillectomy, in dogs and cats at the Veterinary Faculty of Zagreb, Croatia over a 10 years period.

Abstract (croatian)

Oralna neoplazija je četvrti najčešći tumor kod pasa i čini 6-7% i 3% kod mačaka. Mandibulektomija i maksilektomija ostaju najindiciraniji i najučinkovitiji tretman za uklanjanje benignih i malignih tumora usne šupljine. Klinički nalazi, snimanje i biopsija bitni su alati potrebni za dijagnosticiranje i postavljanje stadija oralne neoplazije. Prognoza se razlikuje od jedne do druge oralne neoplazije, a estetski izgled i moguće funkcionalne komplikacije variraju ovisno o opsegu operacije. Općenito, većina klijenata izjavila je da je zadovoljna rezultatima. Ova retrospektivna studija ima za cilj analizirati najčešće uzroke, zajedno s najčešće prijavljenom pasminom, dobi, spolom i lokacijom, koji mogu dovesti do potrebe za mandibulektomijom i/ili maksilektomijom u pasa i mačaka na Veterinarskom fakultetu u Zagrebu, Hrvatska tijekom i razdoblje od 10 godina.
