Doença policística felina tratada com homeopatia: relato de caso / Feline polycystic disease treated withhomeopathy: case report

Foi avaliado o tratamento homeopático de um felino com doença renal policística, moléstia hereditária muito comum na espécie felina. Por ser progressiva, o prognóstico depende do estágio de evolução da doença renal crônica, da resposta do felino ao tratamento inicial e do desejo do tutor em dar continuidade ao tratamento. A observação teve duração de 9 (nove) meses e a avaliação dos resultados foi realizada com o emprego de exame clínico e de exames complementares como imagens ultrassonográficas e exames laboratoriais. A terapia foi composta por medicamento homeopático constitucional Phosphorus 30CH e episódico Kresolum 6CH associado à introdução de dieta renal (ração seca adjuvante). O medicamento homeopático não provocou eventos adversos no animal. Os resultados sugerem que um animal com doença policística felina pode ser tratado pela homeopatia.(AU)

The homeopathic treatment of a feline with polycystic kidney disease was evaluated, a common hereditary disease in the feline species. Because it is progressive, the prognosis depends on the stage of evolution of the chronic kidney disease, the feline response to the initial treatment and the guardian's desire to continue the treatment. The observation lasted 9 (nine) months and the evaluation of the results was performed through clinical examination and complementary tests such as ultrasound images and laboratory tests. The therapy was composed of constitutional Phosphorus 30CH and episodic Kresolum 6CH homeopathic medication associated with the introduction of diet kidney diet (adjunct dry feed). The homeopathic medicine did not cause adverse events in the animal. The results suggest that an animal with feline polycystic disease can be treated by homeopathy.(AU)

Riñón poliquístico y ureterocele tratados con homeopatía y cirugía / Polycystic kidney and ureterocele homeopathy treated and surgery

Las malformaciones renales son las segundas más frecuentes después de las neurológicas. El diagnóstico oportuno de dicha condición se basa en el ultrasonido obstétrico durante el control prenatal. Sin embargo, el problema que se presenta con las malformaciones renales es que frecuentemente están aunadas a malformacionesurinarias y daños neurológicos incompatibles con la vida. No hay un tratamiento in útero, de allí que en ocasiones sea necesario interrumpir el embarazo. En el caso clínico presentado a continuación, el diagnóstico se realizó en la semana 26 por ultrasonido obstétrico, reportando displasia quística renal y probable ureterocele. Lo que aporta este caso, y que se confirmó con la cirugía y el estudio de patología, es la presencia de quistes en el polo superior del riñón izquierdo, doble sistema colector (hallazgo de cirugía) y megaureterocele. Dichas condiciones provocan Insuficiencia Renal Crónica (IRC) e hipertensión arterial en el producto, provocándole la muerte in útero. Si nace vivo, entonces muere a los pocos días por las causas anteriormente mencionadas. Son productos que nacen con peso y talla baja, con malformaciones neurológicas a nivel de columna y cerebro, y con quistes en otros órganos (algo que no se presentó en esta paciente). La Homeopatía fue el único tratamiento que se siguió durante el embarazo, y los resultados fueron extraordinarios. El producto nace vivo, con peso y talla normal alta, sin ningún otro daño o malformación. (AU)

Renal malformations are the second most common after the neurological malformations. Early diagnosis of this condition is based on obstetrical ultrasound during the prenatal control. However, the problema that occurs with kidney malformations is that they are often coupled with urinary malformations and neurological damage incompatible with life. There is no treatment in the uterous, hence sometimes necessary to terminate the pregnancy. In the clinical case presented the diagnosis was made at week 26 by the obstetrical ultrasound, reporting cystic renal displasia and likely uterocele. What brings this case, and which was confirmed by surgery and the pathology study is the presence of cysts in the upper pole of the left kidney, double collecting system (finding surgery) and megaureterocele. These conditions cause chronic renal failure (CRF) and hypertension in the product, causing death in uterous. If born alive, then he dies within a few days for the above causes. These are products that are born with low weight and size, level with neurlogical spine and brain malformations, and with cysts in other organs (which was not presented in this present). Homeopathy was the only treatment that was followed during pregnancy, and the results were extaordinary. The product is born alive, with high normal weight and size, no other damage or malformation.
