Miectomia do músculo cricofaríngeo para correção da acalasia cricofaríngea em cão. Relato de caso

Abstract

The Supervised stage (ESO) is developed in the last period of the undergraduate course in Veterinary Medicine and aims to bring students closer to veterinary medical practice in some areas of interest. The medical routine joins the theoretical content absorbed during graduation and the dedication to the practical routine allows for closer contact with patients, tutors and other veterinary medical professionals. The ESO was carried out from April 5th to June 17th, 2021 in the clinic and surgery sector of a renowned Veterinary Hospital for small animals located in the city of Rio de Janeiro, called Centro de Atendimento Veterinário (CAV). This paper describes the activities developed in the above mentioned establishment and describes the report of a dog diagnosed with cricopharyngeal achalasia.
