Abstract

The overpopulation of dogs and cats is a public health and animal welfare concern. Nowadays, it is known that one of the most effective ways to achieve population control is through surgical sterilization. Taking that into consideration, new techniques aiming faster surgeries and less postoperative complications are arising, in order to allow a greater number of surgeries and greater acceptance by the owners. The minimally invasive laparoscopic technique, commonly known as the "hook technique", has been widely used in veterinary clinics and neutering campaigns. The present experiment aims to evaluate the "hook technique" regarding time of surgery and postoperative recovery in comparison to the traditional technique of ovariohysterectomy in bitches (AU)
