dc.description.abstractAim: To assess the usefulness of duodenoscopy in the diagnosis of duodenal ulcers in dogs. Materials and Methods: Sick dogs with chronic gastrointestinal problems were physically examined and samples were collected for haematology, biochemistry and faecal examination. Duodenal biopsies, duodenal contents and brush cytology were obtained via duodenoscopy. Results: Seven duodenal ulcers cases were recorded, higher incidences was recorded in Labrador retriever, 2-4 years of aged male dogs. Significantly decreased Hb (9.10 ± 0.25 g/dl), RBCs (4.39 ± 0.19 mill/cu.mm) and albumin (2.343b ± 0.13 g/dl) level were noticed. Hyperaemia with ulceration of duodenal mucosa was observed. Conclusion: Duodenoscopy is very much useful for detection of duodenal ulceration and provided a sensitive technique for early diagnosis of mucosal lesions and ulceration.en_US
