Cesarean sections in marmosets: white-tufted marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)

Abstract

Callithrix jacchus es un pequeño primata característico del Nordeste Brasileño. Se considera importante la descripción de un protocolo anestésico y de una técnica quirúrgica de la cesaría aplicada en tres casos de distocia en C. jacchus. Los animales fueron sometidos a una intervención por cesárea, debido al pequeño tamaño de sus cuerpos, lo cual, no permitía maniobras obstétricas menos invasivas. El protocolo anestésico se mostro eficiente, seguros y originales en sus adaptaciones anestésicas por medio de la intubación endotraqueal con un catéter 14G. El procedimiento quirúrgico fue relativamente sencillo y la exposición del útero no fue de gran desafío. No presentó dificultades en cuanto la técnica de sutura al útero, pared abdominal y piel, sin embargo, incluso las más finas suturas utilizadas en perros y gatos es muy gruesa considerando el tamaño del pequeño cuerpo de los titíes.

Callithrix jacchus is a small primate characteristic to the Brazilian Northeast. We considered relevant to report details on the anesthetic protocol and the surgical technique of cesarean sections applied in three cases of dystocia in C. jacchus. Animals were subjected to cesarean intervention because their small body size did not allow for less invasive obstetric maneuvers. The anesthetic protocol was shown to be efficient, safe and original in its equipment adaptations, by means of endotracheal intubation with a 14G catheter. The surgical procedure was relatively simple and did not offer a major challenge in the exposure of the uterus. The suture of the uterus, abdominal wall and skin did not present technical difficulties, however even the thinnest sutures used in dogs and cats may be considered too thick considering the marmosets’ small body size.

Não houveram grandes dificuldades quanto a técnica de sutura do útero, da parede abdominal e da pele, porém os mais finos fios de suturas utilizados em cães e gatos são muito grossos considerando o tamanho do pequeno corpo dos saguis.
