This study evaluated the accuracy and diagnostic quality of histological samples obtained with the Spirotome device on biopsies from dogs affected by canine nasal tumors. Eleven dogs were included in this study. The mean age was 10 years. All biopsies were successfully performed within 15 minutes. All dogs showed nasal bleeding after the biopsies, which was quickly managed by applying intranasal compression with sterile cotton swabs. Bleeding stopped within 10 minutes after sampling. All biopsy samples were considered satisfactory by the pathologist, allowing a proper histological assessment.
本研究评估了 Spirotome 设备在患有犬鼻腔肿瘤的犬只活检中获取的组织学样本的准确性和诊断质量。本研究纳入了 11 只犬。平均年龄为 10 岁。所有活检均在 15 分钟内成功完成。所有犬在活检后均出现鼻腔出血,通过使用无菌棉签进行鼻腔内压迫可快速止血。采样后 10 分钟内出血停止。所有活检样本均得到病理学家的认可,可进行适当的组织学评估。
