Vulnus incisivum is the occurrence of tissue continuity disruption resulting in tissue separation that occurs due to the sharp object incision so as to break the tissue. The objective of this research is to determine the correct procedure of vulnus incivisum surgery and post surgery treatment A terrier dog named Browni who is 1 year old, weighs 7kg. Physically dogs have been observed to experience skin disorders with appetite for eating and drinking, deficiencies and normal urination. Based on the history and clinical examination Browni dog was diagnosed with vulnus incisivum on the left thigh with a prognosis of fausta. Vulnus incisivum is treated surgically by cleansing the wound (physiological NaCl), then removing dead or damaged tissue (debridement) to make the wound merge, the next step being wound closure (suturing). After the operation, antibiotics were given cefotaxim (IV) followed by cefixime (PO) and anti-inflammatory in the form of dexamethasone (PO) until the fifth day. On the fifth postoperative day, the wound began to improve. To accelerate the healing process, the ornwe or the animal are expected to provide postoperative care.
