Clinical Evaluation of a Right-Sided Prophylactic Gastropexy Via a Grid Approach
Journal of the American Animal Hospital Association, 2003 A new technique is described for a prophylactic incisional gastropexy via a right-sided grid approach (i.e., minilaparotomy). A pilot study showed comparable tensile strength between a traditional ventral midline approach and the grid approach. Six client-owned dogs were selected for the procedure.
