Abstract

SASTRE TORRES, José Luis; MATO LORENZO, Yunaika; LAZO PEREZ, Leonel  and  BULNES GOICOCHEA, Carlos A. Combined treatment of chemotherapy and surgery in the transmissible venereal tumor in canines. Rev. investig. vet. Perú [online]. 2019, vol.30, n.3, pp.1050-1056. ISSN 1609-9117.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15381/rivep.v30i3.15403.

A descriptive study was conducted with the aim to evaluate the effectiveness of the combination of surgical and chemotherapeutic treatment in transmissible venereal tumor (TVT) in canines. The study was carried out with cases brought to consultation in the veterinary clinic of the municipality of Rodas, Cienfuegos Province, Cuba. The population studied was 57 dogs diagnosed with TVT. One group (n=14) received chemotherapy with vincristine sulfate (00.1 mg/kg intravenously, three times at 10-day interval), a second group (n=17) underwent surgical treatment and the rest (n=26) received initial surgical treatment followed by chemotherapy, with the same dose and concentration as the first group. The results showed that the combination of surgery and chemotherapy obtained the total recovery of the animal in 95% of the cases in a period of three months.

Keywords : chemotherapeutic; surgery; dog; effectiveness; neoplasia; TVT.
