【毛孩醫學百科 | 寵物誤吞繩子不用擔心? | 個案分享】
Dr Ross 今次會為大家分享一個常見的急症情況 - 寵物誤吞繩子。
許多貓犬都喜歡玩弄各種繩子，但你知道誤吞繩子其實可以引致非常嚴重的情況嗎？
如果寵物不能及時把繩子吐出來，它們往往會持續吞下。
誤吞繩子會在小腸中造成"摺疊"(plication)的問題，試幻想情況如一條束口褲的抽繩被拉緊...
繩子可能會完全切穿腸道，這是非常嚴重的情況。移除繩子手術需要進行多次腸切開術（或腸道切口）來移除， 因為繩子通常會在腸道內壁的多個地方卡住。
如果你懷疑寵物吞下了繩子、任何異物，或寵物開始異常嘔吐、停止進食或看起來非常疲倦和沮喪，請立即帶牠去看獸醫。

Is There No Need to Worry About Pets Swallowing Strings?
Many cats and dogs enjoy playing with various types of strings, but as Dr Ross said, accidentally swallowing them can lead to very serious complications.
If a pet starts to swallow the string rather than spitting it out they tend to keep swallowing it.
The string will often get stuck and start to cut into the lining of the gut when it contracts, and the intestines will tend to bunch up around this area, which is called plication. Imagine a situation where a drawstring from sweatpants is pulled tight...
The string may cut all the way through the intestine, if the surgery is not done, and it is a very serious condition.
Removing the string typically requires multiple enterotomies (or intestinal incisions) because the string will be stuck in the lining of the gut in more than one place.
If you suspect string / any foreign object ingestion, or if your pet begins to vomit excessively, stops eating, or seems very dull and depressed, please bring your pet to the vet right away.
