Abstract

This case report presents the clinical healing success of PRP application in a 2 years old male Kangal dog with tail chasing syndrome which chewed and snapped part of its tail and resulted with a devitalized, necrotized and inflamed severe complex wound. PRP is an easily applied, autologous, relatively cheap and efficient regenerative method. This report aims to point out the benefits of this rapid and efficient method in wide, non-healing wounds due to localization or other reasons.

Özet

Bu raporda kuyruk yakalama davranışsal bozukluğuna bağlı olarak, kendi kuyruğunu parçalayarak, bir kısmının kopmasına neden olmuş, kalan kısmında da devitalize, nekrotik, yangılı ve kompleks bir yara oluşan 2 yaşındaki erkek bir Kangal köpekte PRP uygulamasıyla erişilen başarılı klinik iyileşme süreci sunulmaktadır. PRP kolay uygulanan, otolog, nispeten ucuz ve etkin bir rejeneratif tedavi yöntemidir. Bu olgu, geniş alanlı, iyileşmede lokalizasyon ve diğer nedenlere bağlı güçlük yaşanan yaralarda hızlı ve başarılı sonuçlar veren bu yönteme dikkat çekmek amacıyla sunulmuştur.
