Three dogs were determined to have hepatic arteriovenous fistulas. This condition is similar to a portosystemic shunt; however, cure necessitates hepatic lobectomy instead of a venous ligature. Because of this, it is useful to differentiate these 2 conditions before surgery. Ultrasonography was found to be simple, sensitive, and specific in diagnosing hepatic arteriovenous fistulas and differentiating them from portosystemic shunts.
三只狗被诊断患有肝动静脉瘘。这种情况类似于门体分流;然而,治愈需要进行肝叶切除术而不是静脉结扎术。因此,在手术前区分这两种情况很有用。超声检查在诊断肝动静脉瘘并将其与门体分流区分开来方面被发现是简单、敏感且特异的。
