Overview

Case report demonstrates successful removal of oral melanoma in a dog, highlighting 3D guides and lymph node mapping.

Key Points

  • Clear surgical margins were achieved after the mandibulectomy, ensuring effective removal of the malignant tumor.
  • 3D patient-specific guides were utilized to enhance the precision of the osteotomy during surgery.
  • Near-infrared fluoroscopy was employed to accurately locate sentinel lymph nodes for removal, aiding in cancer treatment.
  • Post-operative histopathology confirmed no complications, with effective identification of lymphoid hyperplasia.
