| Sumario: | The objectives were to describe the portal ultrasound, detail the ultrasound diagnosis of the portosystemic shunts and analyze the data submitted and obtained from the clinical records. From all the patients, 97.2 % were canine patients and 2.7 % one feline patient. From the canine patients, 47.2 % were male and 52.7 % female. Regarding the canine breeds, 36.1 % were mixbreed, 16.6 % poodle, 13.8 % yorshire terrier, 8.3 % miniature schnauzer and 5.5 % shih-tzu. From all the recorded shunts, 72.9 % were congenital extrahepatic, 21.6 % congenital intrahepatic, 2.7 % intrahepatic and extrahepátic simultaneously. Only 2.7 % was acquired secondary to portal hypertension. Related to congenital extrahepatic shunts, 88.8 % were portocaval, 7.4 % left gastrocaval and 3.7 % portoazigos. About the main B-mode ultrasonographic findings, 81 % were patients with microhepatia, 62.1 % with bilateral renomegalia and 21.6 % with urolithiasis. With this work, we could conclude that B mode and doppler ultrasound are efficient complementary methods for the diagnosis and classification of portosystemic shunts.\n |
