RELEVÂNCIA DO EXAME CLÍNICO NO DIAGNÓSTICO DO ENFISEMA SUBCUTÂNEO POR PERFURAÇÃO TRAQUEAL CERVICAL

Abstract

Subcutaneous emphysema is characterized by the accumulation of gases in the subcutaneous tissue. Among the various causes of this condition, one of them is related to the perforation injury caused by damage, and these causes can be punctured, and these injuries can cause bruises or perforations. In this way, this work is related to generalized or secondary objective emphysema to a case of cervical trachea from bite wounds. A dog, mixed breed and with perforations in the skin, was treated. No clinical examination was observed when being manipulated, bleeding from the perforations, generalized subcutaneous crepitus and increased body silhouette. These suspects are suspected of having a subcutaneous finding secondary to the trachea. Thus, ordered abdominal radiography exams and ranged exams encompassing blood count and ALT measurement measurements, creation of ultrasound exams and glucose. However, only the blood count and biochemical tests were performed. However, due to the thorough evaluation, the diagnosis was established in tracheal animal evaluation. With this, the patient was sent to the sector for repair of this lesion, not which was successfully performed. Thus, a thorough clinical evaluation of the patient is very important for the diagnosis of this condition.
