    Snippet: It is concluded that BOHB is significantly higher in dogs with AP compared to other dogs without diabetes mellitus. The diagnostic and prognostic utility of this finding remains to be investigated.

    Document: It is concluded that BOHB is significantly higher in dogs with AP compared to other dogs without diabetes mellitus. The diagnostic and prognostic utility of this finding remains to be investigated. Surgical treatment for extrahepatic bile duct obstruction (EHBDO) in veterinary patients has a high morbidity and mortality. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) and endoscopic biliary stent placement (EBS) is a minimally-invasive alternative used in humans with high success and few complications. The purpose of this study was to describe the technical and clinical outcomes using ERC/EBS for the treatment of EHBDO in dogs and cats.
