{{dog}}
−
Gastric Dilatation and Volvulus (GDV) is an '''acute, life-threatening emergency''' affecting large and giant breed dogs. The condition is characterised by '''accumulation of gas in the stomach, malpositioning of the stomach, increased intragastric pressure and shock'''. Successful management relies on prompt diagnosis and appropriate emergency treatment as the disease will rapidly progress to death if untreated.
 
  
−
Commonly affected breeds include German Shepherds, Great Danes, Irish Wolfhounds, St Bernards and Doberman Pinschers. GDV has also been reported to occur in cats, primates and rarely small breed dogs such as Dachshunds and Miniature Poodles.

==Description==
 +
Gastric dilatation (GD) and Gastric dilatation and volvulus (GDV) are caused by the stomach distending with air. In GDV the stomach twists around its axis mainly in a clockwise direction with both conditions leading to compression of the caudal vena cava. GDV can lead to [[Shock - Pathology#Hypovolaemic shock|hypovolaemic shock]], splenic torsion, gastric wall ischaemia, abdominal viscera congestion, [[Shock - Pathology#Endotoxic shock|endotoxic shock]] and [[Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation - Pathology|disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)]]. The exact pathogenesis is unclear but risk factors for GDV include age, fast eating, once- daily feeding, aerophagia, raised feeding bowl and a close relative with GDV.

==Risk Factors==
+
==Diagnosis==
−
The exact aetiology of the condition is unknown but a number of risk factors have been identified. Studies have shown that dogs with a '''reduced thoracic width to depth ratio''' are at an increased risk of developing GDV. Female dogs are also more likely to develop GDV than males and stressed, anxious dogs are more likely to develop GDV than calm dogs. Other risk factors include obesity, feeding a dry food diet and exercise after feeding.

==Pathogenesis==
+
===Haematology===
−
An obstruction to gastric emptying due to fluid or gas leads to '''gastric distention''' and a rapid increase in intra-gastric pressure. As the stomach dilates, the '''pylorus shifts through an angle of between 180 and 360<sup>o</sup>C''' from its normal position to a dorsal, cranial and leftward location. More than 90% of all gastric volvuli rotate in a '''clockwise direction''' when viewed from the surgeon's perspective with the dog in dorsal recumbency.
+
*Increased haematocrit
 +
*DIC (thrombocytopaenia, increased firbin degradation products, prolonged patial thromboplastin time and reduced antithrombin III.
  
−
The most immediate effect is impairment of the gastric blood supply, leading to severe congestion of the gastric wall and infarction and ulceration of the gastric mucosa. Venous return to heart is reduced due to mechanical compression of the caudal vena cava by the distended stomach, leading to decreased cardiac output and hypovolaemic [[shock]]. Gastric distension also causes a mechanical impediment to movement of the diaphragm resulting in reduced tidal volume, hypoxia and hypercapnia.
+
===Biochemistry===
 +
Most commonly find hypokalaemia and metabolic acidosis. The acidosis is caused hypoperfusion and anaerobic metabolism leading to lactic acid accumulation. Respiratory acidosis and alkalosis may also be present due to hypo- and hyperventilation.
  
−
In addition to the above systemic effects, displacement of the stomach may lead to avulsion of the short gastric branches of the splenic artery and of the left epiploic artery along the greater curvature of the stomach. Significant haemorrhage may occur as a result and this may lead to the development of ischaemia-induced gastric necrosis.  
+
===Diagnostic imaging===
 +
Best performed after fluid therapy and gastric decompression. It allows distinction between GD and GDV:
 +
*Gastric dilatation: gas distension, on right lateral shows air in the fundus.
 +
*Gastric dilatation and volvulus: pylorus moves dorsally and left with a compartmentalized stomach.
 +
A right lateral view will show a large fundus ventrally, with a smaller gas filled pylorus located dorsally to that. These are seperated by a soft tissue strip. The contrast of the abdomen may be lost indicating peritonitis or haemabdomen. Gastric rupture would show as pneumoperitoneum and increased contrast.
  
−
==History and Clinical Signs==
+
==Treatment==
−
The clinical signs of GDV are usually '''acute in onset''' and may follow a period of exercise and/or feeding of a large meal. Affected dogs typically display '''non-productive vomiting and abdominal distension'''. Acute onset restlessness, abdominal pain, hypersalivation and abdominal tympany are other common features of GDV. On physical examination, the dog may be collapsed or reluctant to stand. Signs of cardiovascular '''shock''' may be present including tachycardia, pale mucous membranes, prolonged capillary refill time and poor peripheral pulses. An irregular heart rate combined with pulse deficits indicates the presence of [[:Category:Arrhythmia|cardiac arrhythmias]].
+
The most important first line treatments are [[Principles of Fluid Therapy|fluid therapy]] and gastric decompression.
  
−
==Diagnosis and Management==
+
===Fluid therapy===
−
Diagnosis is usually based on the '''patient's signalment and a history of unproductive vomiting and abdominal distension'''.  
+
Should be individualised to the patient due to the varying nature of the acid-base disturbances. Large bore (16 or 18 gauge) catheters should be placed into cephalic or jugular veins (ideally two into both cephalic veins). Shock doses of Compound Sodium Lactate (Lactated Ringer's Solution) (60-90ml/kg/h). Hypertonic saline can also be used. Monitoring of the situation should be done by regular blood pressure measurements, heart rates, PCV and total solids and urine output. Potassium can be supplemented to bags in the form of KCl after the initial shock doses.
  
−
===[[:Category:Fluid Therapy|Fluid Therapy]]===
+
===Gastric decompression===
−
Initial emergency treatment should be aimed at managing the dog's '''hypovolaemic shock'''. It may be beneficial to provide oxygen supplementation whilst the dog is being stabilised.
+
Performed by introduction of a lubricated premeasured (from nostril to last rib) stomach tube or by trocharizing the most tympanic area caudal to the ribs with a 14 to 16 gauge catheter. Sedation may be required to allow the passage of the stomach tube. Suitable drugs for this include [[Opioids#Butorphanol|butorphanol]], fentanyl or oxymorphone and [[Benzodiazepines#Diazepam|diazepam]].
−
Large bore (16 or 18 gauge) catheters should be placed into the cephalic or jugular veins and a proportion of the '''shock dose of Compound Sodium Lactate''' (90ml/kg/h) should be administered intravenously based on the severity of the dog's clinical signs. Hypertonic saline or colloid fluids may be indicated in very large dogs or those who have not responded to a bolus dose of crystalloid fluids.  
 
  
−
===Gastric Decompression===
+
===Other treatment===
−
Following a period of aggressive fluid therapy, '''gastric decompression''' should be performed. A lubricated large-bore stomach tube is premeasured (from nostril to last rib) and marked. A roll of 2 inch adhesive tape should be inserted behind the canine teeth and the dog's mouth should be held closed around the bandage. The stomach tube can then be introduced through the bandage into the oesophagus. It is important to minimise stress when this procedure is carried out. Sedation is not usually required but suitable drugs for this include Butorphanol, Fentanyl or Diazepam. If the animal is resistant to orogastric intubation or becomes stressed, '''trocharization''' of the most tympanic area caudal to the ribs with a 14 to 16 gauge catheter may be performed. This may allow subsequent completion of orogastric intubation for further decompression. Temporary '''gastrostomy''' may also be considered.
+
*For shock: Prednisolone sodium succinate or dexamethasone sodium phosphate.
 +
*For bacterial translocation and endotoxaemia: Broad spectrum antibiotics (e.g. [[Cephalosporins|cephalosporin]] and a [[Fluoroquinolones|fluoroquinolone]]) should also be given at surgical induction through to the postoperative period.
 +
*For cardiac arrythmias: indicated if weakness, sycope, tachycardia runs with R on T complexes, ventricular tachycardia at rates >150bpm. Treated by correcting acid-base, electrolyte and haemostatic disturbances. The treatment is lidocaine by bolus or continuous rate infusion or procainamide if they persist.
 +
*For analgesia: Pure opiod of morphine, methadone or fentanyl.
 +
*General: Oxygen supplementation if possible
  
−
===Radiography===
+
===Anaesthesia===
−
'''Abdominal radiography''' may be beneficial in confirming a diagnosis of GDV and distinguishing between GDV and gastric dilatation. Radiography should not be carried out until gastric decompression has been performed and intravenous fluids have been started. A radiograph performed in right lateral recumbency shows a dorso-cranially positioned pylorus to the left of the midline. The stomach will appear compartmentalised (the classic ''''double bubble'''' pattern) with a soft tissue strip separating the two compartments. The oesophagus may appear dilated with air or fluid. Evidence of air in the abdomen indicates that perforation has occurred and requires an exploratory surgical procedure. Loss of contrast in the abdomen may indicate [[peritonitis]] or haemoabdomen.
+
Anaesthesia must be carried out with care even after the patient has been stabilised. There are limited protocols but included fentanyl and diazepam bolus or titrated propofol. Maintenance can be achieved with the use of isoflurane and sevoflurane in oxygen however nitrous oxide should be avoided due to third spacing. Regular routine monitoring of urine production, blood pressure, central venous pressure, PCV, total solids, blood gas and serum electrolytes. High rates of fluids should be used to maintain tissue perfusion and arterial blood pressure
  
−
===Other Diagnostic Tools===
+
===Surgery===
−
Plasma '''lactate''' concentration has been reported to have a strong link with the patient's prognosis due to its association with gastric necrosis and systemic hypovolaemia. A plasma lactate greater than 6 mmol/L is associated with a poor prognosis.
+
Surgical aims include:
 +
*Gastric decompression and repositioning
 +
*Assessing the organ viability
 +
*Removing necrotic tissue
 +
*Gastropexy (can perform incisional, tube, belt-loop and circumcostal techniques) to prevent recurrence
  
−
'''Electrocardiography''' (ECG) is essential as cardiac arrhythmias may occur in up to 40% of dogs with GDV. Most arrhythmias are ventricular in origin and occur within 36 hours of admission. [[Ventricular Tachycardia|Ventricular tachycardia]] is the most common rhythm disturbance displayed but many other arrhythmias may occur.
+
If gastric necrosis (happens in 10-37% of patients) is present (discoloured dark purple or grey/green, don't bleed when incised or feel paper thin) then a parital gastrectomy is required. Damage to the spleen via avulsion or torsion may need partial or complete splenectomy.
  
−
==Treatment==
+
===Post-operative complications===
−
Once the patient has been stabilised, the volvulus should be surgically reduced via a cranioventral midline laparotomy. The aims of surgery include '''gastric decompression and repositioning, assessment of the abdominal organ viability, removal of necrotic tissue and gastropexy''' (to prevent recurrence).
+
These are wide and varied and include:
−
 
+
*Hypoperfusion
−
Stomach contents should be removed using a large stomach tube or through a gastrotomy incision (taking care not to spill gastric contents into the abdomen) prior to any resection of devitalised tissue. Partial gastrectomy is ideally performed using a '''stapler''' as it is easy to use and considerably reduces the operation time.
+
*Hypotension
−
 
+
*Cardiac arrythmias
−
It is important to evaluate the '''viability of the stomach''' carefully (tissue thickness and colour should be assessed and vessels palpated for pulsations - in questionable areas a stab incision should be made and observed for signs of bleeding). If necrotic tissue is not properly identified and then incorporated into the closure wound, this may subsequently breakdown - resulting in peritoneal contamination.
+
*[[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Aspiration pneumonia|Aspiration pneumonia]]
−
 
+
*Abnormal gastric motility
−
'''Splenic damage''' due to avulsion or torsion may require partial or complete splenectomy. If complete torsion has occurred it is important perform a complete splenectomy '''before''' derotating the spleen. Failure to do so will result in the release of ischemic toxins and thrombi into the circulation on de-rotation. If avulsion or torsion is incomplete (and no thrombi are present) the organ should be re-positioned and then allowed to settle before assessing for viability. Lack of viability may appear as dark areas indicating ischaemia or infarction. Again splenectomy is easier to perform with stapling equipment. Splenectomy may also be indicated if any masses are present on the spleen or if haemorrhage cannot be controlled.
+
*Gastric necrosis
−
 
+
*[[Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation - Pathology|DIC]]
−
Many types of gastropexy have been described including the belt-loop, tube and circumcostal techniques. However the most commonly used in GDV surgery is the '''incisional gastroplexy''' as it is simple to perform and has low levels of complications. This technique involves making a partial thickness incision in both the pyloric antral region and adjacent right abdominal wall and suturing the two incisions together. The use of tube gastrostomy is associated with a higher morbidity rate due to alteration of gastric motility and development of cellulitis around the tube. The circumcostal technique produces reliable adhesions but is technically difficult to perform and can result in [[Pneumothorax|pneumothorax]]. Midline abdominal closure gastropexy should be avoided as this means that any future abdominal incision may penetrate directly into the stomach if the surgeon is not warned.
+
*Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS)
−
 
 
−
The abdomen should be '''lavaged''' prior to closure.
 
−
 
 
−
==Post-operative Complications and Care==
 
−
The most common complications following GDV surgery include '''cardiac arrhythmias, shock, [[hypokalaemia]] and surgical complications such as dehiscence'''. Ventricular tachycardia is the most common abnormal rhythm and continuous ECG monitoring is recommended for the 24-48 hours following surgery. Intravenous fluid therapy should be continued and the haemodynamic, acid-base and electrolyte balance should also be closely monitored. If vomiting occurs the patient should be evaluated for possible peritonitis and if gastric rupture.
 
  
 
==Prognosis==
 
==Prognosis==
−
Simple GDV mortality rates are around 15%. Patients suffering from gastric necrosis or requiring gastric resection or splenectomy have a higher mortality rate at over 30%.

Description

Gastric dilatation (GD) and Gastric dilatation and volvulus (GDV) are caused by the stomach distending with air. In GDV the stomach twists around its axis mainly in a clockwise direction with both conditions leading to compression of the caudal vena cava. GDV can lead to hypovolaemic shock, splenic torsion, gastric wall ischaemia, abdominal viscera congestion, endotoxic shock and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). The exact pathogenesis is unclear but risk factors for GDV include age, fast eating, once- daily feeding, aerophagia, raised feeding bowl and a close relative with GDV.

Diagnosis

History and Clinical signs

Haematology

  • Increased haematocrit
  • DIC (thrombocytopaenia, increased firbin degradation products, prolonged patial thromboplastin time and reduced antithrombin III.

Biochemistry

Most commonly find hypokalaemia and metabolic acidosis. The acidosis is caused hypoperfusion and anaerobic metabolism leading to lactic acid accumulation. Respiratory acidosis and alkalosis may also be present due to hypo- and hyperventilation.

Diagnostic imaging

Best performed after fluid therapy and gastric decompression. It allows distinction between GD and GDV:

  • Gastric dilatation: gas distension, on right lateral shows air in the fundus.
  • Gastric dilatation and volvulus: pylorus moves dorsally and left with a compartmentalized stomach.

A right lateral view will show a large fundus ventrally, with a smaller gas filled pylorus located dorsally to that. These are seperated by a soft tissue strip. The contrast of the abdomen may be lost indicating peritonitis or haemabdomen. Gastric rupture would show as pneumoperitoneum and increased contrast.

Treatment

The most important first line treatments are fluid therapy and gastric decompression.

Fluid therapy

Should be individualised to the patient due to the varying nature of the acid-base disturbances. Large bore (16 or 18 gauge) catheters should be placed into cephalic or jugular veins (ideally two into both cephalic veins). Shock doses of Compound Sodium Lactate (Lactated Ringer's Solution) (60-90ml/kg/h). Hypertonic saline can also be used. Monitoring of the situation should be done by regular blood pressure measurements, heart rates, PCV and total solids and urine output. Potassium can be supplemented to bags in the form of KCl after the initial shock doses.

Gastric decompression

Performed by introduction of a lubricated premeasured (from nostril to last rib) stomach tube or by trocharizing the most tympanic area caudal to the ribs with a 14 to 16 gauge catheter. Sedation may be required to allow the passage of the stomach tube. Suitable drugs for this include butorphanol, fentanyl or oxymorphone and diazepam.

Other treatment

  • For shock: Prednisolone sodium succinate or dexamethasone sodium phosphate.
  • For bacterial translocation and endotoxaemia: Broad spectrum antibiotics (e.g. cephalosporin and a fluoroquinolone) should also be given at surgical induction through to the postoperative period.
  • For cardiac arrythmias: indicated if weakness, sycope, tachycardia runs with R on T complexes, ventricular tachycardia at rates >150bpm. Treated by correcting acid-base, electrolyte and haemostatic disturbances. The treatment is lidocaine by bolus or continuous rate infusion or procainamide if they persist.
  • For analgesia: Pure opiod of morphine, methadone or fentanyl.
  • General: Oxygen supplementation if possible

Anaesthesia

Anaesthesia must be carried out with care even after the patient has been stabilised. There are limited protocols but included fentanyl and diazepam bolus or titrated propofol. Maintenance can be achieved with the use of isoflurane and sevoflurane in oxygen however nitrous oxide should be avoided due to third spacing. Regular routine monitoring of urine production, blood pressure, central venous pressure, PCV, total solids, blood gas and serum electrolytes. High rates of fluids should be used to maintain tissue perfusion and arterial blood pressure

Surgery

Surgical aims include:

  • Gastric decompression and repositioning
  • Assessing the organ viability
  • Removing necrotic tissue
  • Gastropexy (can perform incisional, tube, belt-loop and circumcostal techniques) to prevent recurrence

If gastric necrosis (happens in 10-37% of patients) is present (discoloured dark purple or grey/green, don't bleed when incised or feel paper thin) then a parital gastrectomy is required. Damage to the spleen via avulsion or torsion may need partial or complete splenectomy.

Post-operative complications

These are wide and varied and include:

  • Hypoperfusion
  • Hypotension
  • Cardiac arrythmias
  • Aspiration pneumonia
  • Abnormal gastric motility
  • Gastric necrosis
  • DIC
  • Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS)

Prognosis

Simple GDV mortality rates are around 15%. Patients suffering from gastric necrosis, gastric resection or splenectomy have a higher mortality rate at over 30%. Gastric necorsis can be predicted by measuring plasma lactate. Values >6mmol/l indicates necrosis (Specificity 88%, Sensitivity 66%)
