- Feline lungworm infection. An emerging concern?Publication . Vala, Helena; Esteves, F.; Santos, C.; Mega, A.C.; Coelho, C.; Nóbrega, C.; Cruz, C.; Mesquita, J. R.Infectious feline upper respiratory tract disease is very common and Aelurostrongylus abstrusus is the most often diagnosed parasitic cause, although clinical signs may go unnoticed and diagnosis is challenging as it has several limitations. Noting that more cases have been recorded in recent years, the authors, in the present work, describe in detail the features of five cases of Aelurostrongylus abstrusus registered in their work and influence area, to alert animal health professionals to this emerging concern.
- Canine hair follicular tumours: a retrospective studyPublication . Vala, Helena; Brito, M.; Esteves, Fernando; Cruz, R.; Santos, C.; Mega, A.C.; Nóbrega, C.; Mesquita, JR; Lemos, CHair follicular tumours in dog comprise a large and heterogeneous group of neoplasms that display morphological features resembling one or several portions of the normal hair follicle which constitute a huge effort for its diagnosis. Histopathological evaluation is required to better characterize the different types of canine hair follicular tumours, in order to better understand its biological behaviour and to collaborate with the daily clinical practice. Thus, a retrospective, cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out with goal of analyse its frequency and characteristics, in order to contribute to a better understanding of this vast group of tumours. As main results the authors verified a higher incidence of follicular tumours in male dogs, being the most frequent types diagnosed trichoepithelioma, followed by, trichoblastoma, infundibular keratinizing acanthoma and pilomatricoma and the average age of dogs was 8.76 years. Also, malignant tumours represented 31.6% of all canine hair follicular tumours diagnosed (n= 114).
- Caesarean section and neonatal care in the dog.Publication . Mota, M. S. G.; Vala, Helena; Esteves, F.; Cruz, R.; Pisco, S.; Carvalho, P.; Guerreiro, C.; Pacheco, M.; Judas, H.Caesarean section in breeding bitches is an increasingly common practice not only to ensure their future fertility but also the health and safety of offspring. Bitches with high genetic value are often submitted to this procedure. Following the bitch from the moment of mating to the moment of delivery and adequate nursing care of the newborn increases the neonatal survival rates.
