    • Subcutaneous T-Fastener Gastropexy: A New Technique

      T-fastener gastropexy is a step in percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy in which the stomach is fastened to the abdominal wall. Minor complications of gastropexy are often related to the prolonged presence of -fastener sutures. We describe a new technique T for gastropexy using absorbable sutures placed subcutaneously, as opposed to the standard

      A simplified technique for laparoscopic gastropexy (group 1) was compared to belt-loop gastro- pexy (group 2) in eight adult male dogs randomly divided into two groups of four dogs each. Our hypothesis was that a satisfactory laparoscopic gastropexy would approximate the strength and operative time required for belt-loop gastropexy.

      Gastropexy is often done when a dog presents symptoms of GDV to avoid reoccurrence, but a gastropexy can also be performed before a canine develops gastric dilatation-volvulus. This is recommended for dogs that are at high risk for bloating- typically large, deep-chested breeds. It has been reported that the reoccurrence

      Prophylactic gastropexy can be performed via a standard approach (incision along the midline of the belly), a so called grid-approach (incision on the side of the abdominal wall) or laparoscopic-assisted. Laparoscopic-assisted gastropexy involves placing two cannulas (5 and 10 mm diameter) through the abdominal wall.

      If gastropexy is not performed, 75-80% of dogs will develop GDV again. After surgery, the dog is closely monitored for several days for signs of infection, heart abnormalities, DIC, stomach ulceration or perforation, and damage to the pancreas or liver. Antibiotics and additional medications may need to be given.

Circumcostal gastropexy is more difficult to perform and the surgical procedure has potential risks of rib fracture or pneumothorax.

      A gastropexy is a procedure for permanently ‘fixing’ the stomach to the body wall which will prevent volvulus (rotation) in the future. It is important to keep in mind that although volvulus is prevented with the gastropexy, bloat (dilatation) is still possible. Therefore, any episode in which you observe
