Intraperitoneal and local ozone applications in veterinary oncology treatment [abstract]


Abstract


The elevated incidence of some non treatable, or with low therapeutic results, side effects in certain areas of veterinary medicine such as oncology, orthopaedics, wounds and infections in dogs, cats, and horses is notoriously reported and differentiated in several infirmities. These side effects manifest in symptoms acting as locomotor disability, pain, and in some cases, they result in a great loss of life quality in animals and their owners alike. Therefore, intraperitoneal and local ozone applications have brought relevant results and are now being used as complementary or, in certain cases, only treatment. The goal of this lecture is to show the use as well as the results and techniques used in oncological pathologies treated with intraperitoneal and local ozone applications which did not respond ,or had low therapeutic results, to conventional veterinary treatment. All this demonstrates that Intraperitoneal as well as local ozone applications are powerful tools available to veterinarians in order to promote relief, comfort, or, possibly, cure to animals.
