Abstract(s)
A Dermatologia em Medicina Veterinária de Animais de Companhia tem vindo a ganhar maior destaque ao longo dos tempos. O sistema tegumentar é conhecido por ser o maior órgão do organismo, consequentemente, mais exposto, refletindo alterações cutâneas, sendo desta forma, representativo do aumento de visitas dos cuidadores aos Centros de Atendimento Médico Veterinários (CAMV´s). É necessária uma anamnese aprofundada, um exame físico e dermatológico criteriosos, conjugando com o uso de meios complementares de diagnóstico com a finalidade de se direcionar para um diagnóstico dermatológico final e instituição de um tratamento eficaz, utilizando a ferramenta da Dermapatologia para tentar restabelecer o bem-estar animal. Muitas vezes é necessário recorrer a métodos diagnósticos mais invasivos, que podem requerer uma componente cirúrgica, como é exemplo a biópsia cutânea incisional ou excisional. A primeira parte deste trabalho consiste numa revisão de literatura sobre a
métodos de diagnóstico dermatológico, com enfâse na biópsia cutânea, nas suas
aplicações, nas suas complicações, como se efetua a recolha e o processamento da
amostra até ao laboratório e quais os principais erros cometidos. A segunda parte
desta dissertação consiste na elaboração de um formulário/inquérito para aplicação
nas consultas de foro dermatológico, como apoio à equipa de saúde animal, na
implementação de diretrizes claras, sob a forma de workflow para o procedimento de
biopsias cutâneas desde a clínica ao laboratório e, por fim, na discussão catorze casos clínicos, onde em cinco a biópsia cutânea é utilizada, em oito outros meios complementares de diagnóstico e por último num caso clínico não é utilizado nenhum meio complementar de diagnóstico.
ABSTRACTS: Dermatology in Small Animals Medicine has been gaining greater prominence over the years. The integumentary system is known to be the largest organ of the organism, consequently, more exposed, reflecting cutaneous alterations, being thus representative of the increase of caregiver visits to Veterinary Practices. It is necessary a detailed anamnesis, a phyisical and dermatological examination, combining with the use of complementary means of diagnosis with the purpose of direct towards a final dermatological diagnosis and institution of an effective treatment. It is often necessary to resort to more invasive diagnostic methods, which may require a surgical component such as incisional or excisional skin biopsy. The first part of this work consists of a review of the literature on dermatological diagnostic methods, with emphasis on cutaneous biopsy, its applications, its complications, how to collect and process the sample to the laboratory and what are the main mistakes made. The second part of this dissertation consists of the elaboration of a form / survey for application in dermatology consultations, as support to veterinary team, in the implementation of clear guidelines, in the form of workflow for the procedure of cutaneous biopsies from the clinic to the laboratory and, finally, in the discussion fourteen clinical cases, where in five the cutaneous biopsy is used, in eight other complementary means of diagnosis and finally in a clinical case no complementary means of diagnosis is used.
