In the anatomical models, it is possible to identify the different regions of the canine stomach (aglandular and glandular), the regional anatomy of the organ (cardia, body and the pyloric antrum), as well as important anatomical features of the species, like the greater and lesser curvatures of the stomach.
Abdominal computed tomography (CT) revealed an increased wall thickness of the pyloric antrum along with mesenteric lymphadenopathy (20 mm) and peritoneal carcinomatosis.
We did a gastrotomy on the anterior surface of the pyloric antrum. The polyp was wide-based (Figure 3), occluding almost completely the pylorus and the duodenum only leaving a space for a hand's little finger to pass.
(4) Narrowing or obstruction of the bowels, occurring later in the disease process, most commonly occurs at retroperitoneal sites such as the pyloric antrum, ileocecal valve, and the Pouch of Douglas.
To further evaluate any esophageal involvement of the scleroderma, an esogastric radioscopy was performed, which visualized two lacunar images in the pyloric antrum and hypertrophic gastric folds (Figure 4).
In cases of GDV, the adhesion is made between the pyloric antrum and the right side of the abdominal wall (RASMUSSEN, 2007).This adhesion may be achieved by different techniques including the incisional, the belt-loop, the circumcostal and the tube gastropexy.
