To aid in the surgical removal of canine anal sacs.
Anal sac conditions such as impaction or abscess formation are a common and often re-occurring problem in small animal medicine. The surgical excision of both anal sacs can be elected as a permanent solution to these issues, however the excision can be a surgical challenge because of the collapsed nature of empty anal sacs, the risk of anal sphincter compromise, and the lack of discernable anatomical landmarks in a vascular surgical field.
The Gen II product uses a safe and non-toxic polymer gel that is infused as a soft gel into the empty anal sac which then solidifies in 2-4 minutes upon application. This provides an easily discernible mass that can be dissected out fairly readily, thus reducing surgery time and the risk of leaving anal sac remnant.
The Gen II Kit is now supplied as a single complete unit and can be used at room temperature- there is no longer a need to pre-heat the gel in boiling water.
Included in the Kit:
Supplied as a 5-pack.
