Dealing with veterinary oncology cases is often a great challenge for veterinarians in Himachal Pradesh. Only chemotherapy available for benign tumors is Vincristine which is ineffective against perianal and rectal tumors. Not only the wide range of presenting signs and cancer types require a veterinarian to be constantly vigilant, but also the high prevalence rates of some cancers mean that the battle against cancer in pets is seemingly constant. Acellularization of xenogenic biomaterials has been highly desired for implantation without considerable adverse inflammatory and immune responses. In a prospective non-randomized study, we evaluated the effectiveness of grafting the pig’s diaphragm (freshly sacrificed) into the dead space created post-surgery in the rectal, anal and perianal regions in a Labrador dog (aged approx 4 years) suffering from perianal adenoma and epithelioma in Veterinary Polyclinic, Rampur Bushahar. The graft got rejected after 8 days of surgery. We performed another grafting surgery with fresh pig diaphragm which again lasted for next 8 days, the healing of the tissue below the grafted pig diaphragm was seen upto 80%. After 2 months of surgery tissue healing upto 90% was observed. This indicates that even if the graft gets selected or rejected the healing of the tissue happens and the post-sugery dead space got healed using this technique. Both way graft has its importance. Hence this technique of xenografting pig’s diaphragm into the skin tissue of dog is better alternative for expensive chemotherapy which is commonly used in peri-anal adenoma treatment.
