Provet clinic , Plovdiv, Bulgaria
Aprilcho’s story takes place in the centre of Plovdiv, Bulgaria. The kitten is a victim of a car accident. Our colleague
Nina is the only one, who noticed the helpless cat , squirming on the street with painful convulsions. Nina picked him
up and brought him to the clinic.
He was in a very bad condition – shock, prostration, severe head trauma with
neurologic symptoms, acute mouth bleeding, and convulsions. It was visible that he had maxillofacial trauma and a
mandibular symphysiolysis.
First we did shock therapy so we could stabilize the patient. After we had the shock under control, we performed the oral surgery.
The upper premolars and molars had to be extracted, then alveoloplasty and correction of the symphysiolysis.
We’ve inserted an esophagostomy tube, so we could deliver enteral nutrition during the recovery period.
The recovery was long, due to the vestibular syndrome. He had pus expulsion from the left nostril and forehead
edema. We gave him antibiotics (Synulox) , Nootropil (piracetam) diluted with Glucose per os, and he received for
- 6 weeks enteral feeding with *Recovery* Liquid (Royal Canine).
