The anatomic variations of the perineal arteries and nerves are studied in the dog. The aim of the study is to provide a more detailed understanding of the blood supply and innervation of the perineal region, providing detailed information on the perineal arteries and nerve distribution and their variability in male and female dogs. The study used 232 pelvic halves from 116 adult dogs and analysed the differences using the chi-squared test. The results showed that the presumptive model for perineal artery distribution described in N.A.V. was observed in 46% of the specimens. Additionally, a dorsal perineal artery “long type” was found in 13% of the dogs, and a perineal trunk was present in 41% of the dogs. In the study, there was no variation in perineal nerve distribution, and it was found that the perineal nerve did not run together with the dorsal perineal artery when it was the “short type” as described in the presumptive model for perineal artery distribution. Instead, it always followed the route of the dorsal perineal artery “long type” and the perineal trunk when they were present. The findings of the study may be useful for veterinary surgeons when approaching the perineal region in dogs. Full article

Pudendal Neuralgia (PN) is a rare, debilitating disease caused by damage to the pudendal nerve, which innervates the anus, rectum, perineum, lower urinary tract, and genitalia. Although its etiology remains scientifically unknown, a number of sports practices, including horse-riding, are reported as triggering and/or aggravating factors. The present work summarizes the experimental measurements of the contact pressure at the interface between the rider and saddle, for a population of 12 experienced female riders. These tests reveal that dynamic horseback-riding leads to high levels of peak pressures in the perineal region, which confirms that the practice of equine sports may cause neuropathologies such as PN. All collected data will be used as boundary conditions in a future numerical 3D model aimed at locating the possible areas of pudendal nerve crushing. Full article
