Abstract

Anal stulas are often diagnosed in the small animal clinic. This disease can be dened as an inammatory lesion of the anal mucosa or adjacent tissues, causing pain and discomfort. The conventional treatment by surgery and/or use of antibiotics, corticoids, and immunosuppressants has adverse effects and sequelae, such as fecal incontinence. Therefore, it is evident that the therapies of choice for this pathology are generally ineffective for the patient's health balance. From this point of view, homeopathy has become an important therapy for treating this disease. This study aimed to report the case of a young male Maltese dog diagnosed with perianal stula, which was exclusively treated by injectable homeopathy. Silicea terra, Belladonna, and Hepar sulphur were prescribed based on the Law of Similars. The therapeutic protocol restored the function of the affected tissues with the complete resolution of the disease in a little over one week. No complications were recorded.
