Flexible Gastrointestinal Endoscopy in Ferrets (Mustela putorius furo)
Original language description
Gastrointestinal diseases are common complaints in ferrets. However, apart from a few references in biomedical research articles, there is little information on the use of flexible endoscopy. The anatomy of the ferret gastrointestinal tract is relativelysimple and short. The small intestine distal to the duodenum forms coiled tubes suspended by a mesentery; the large intestine is a straight dilated tube that is differentiated into ascending, transverse, and descending colon. Because of the small lumensize of the ferret gastrointestinal tract, small-diameter bronchoscopes have been traditionally used. Gastroscopes can be used in ferrets weighing more than 1 kg, while the new generation of smaller videoscopes is likely to make this practical in smallerferrets. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy is a promising and useful technique for anorectic or dysphagic ferrets.
