Abstract

Anal sac disease represents a frequent complaint in small animal practice, with prevalence in dogs estimated at 12%. The condition is reported most often in small breeds, and it is rare in cats. Repeated conservative management is often unsuccessful, and the clinician must then resort to anal sacculectomy to cure the disease. Similarly, surgery is an important part of the treatment for anal sac neoplasia. This article briefly reviews the different condition that may affect the anal sacs, and focuses on their surgical treatment.
