However, prophylactic gastropexy effectively reduces the incidence of GDV. In a 5-year-old female Russo-European Laika, who had a high risk of GDV due to being purebred and deep-chested, and a positive family history, prophylactic gastropexy\u2014utilizing two 6-mm ports and barbed sutures\u2014was performed using the modified laparoscopic-assisted percutaneous gastropexy (mLAPG) technique, without open celiotomy and intracorporeal suturing. The gastropexy suturing time was 29\u202fmin. Follow-up assessments using ultrasonography, laparoscopy, and endoscopy were conducted 1\u202fmonth postoperatively and confirmed stable adhesion without gastric wall damage or complications at the gastropexy site. This is the first case report of the application of mLAPG in a dog. Based on the successful formation of adhesion and the absence of complications for 1\u202fyear in this case, the mLAPG technique can be recommended as an effective method for prophylactic gastropexy in dogs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fvets.2025.1614761","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,20]],"date-time":"2025-11-20T05:10:29Z","timestamp":1763615429000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Case Report: Successful application of modified laparoscopic assisted percutaneous gastropexy in a dog using two 6-mm portal sites"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Sohee","family":"Youn","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Surgery, College of Veterinary Medicine, Institute of Veterinary Science, Kangwon National University","place":["Chuncheon, Republic of Korea"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ho Hyun","family":"Kwak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Surgery, College of Veterinary Medicine, Institute of Veterinary Science, Kangwon National University","place":["Chuncheon, Republic of Korea"]},{"name":"Department of Companion Animal Industry, College of Natural and Life Sciences, Daegu University","place":["Gyeongsan, Republic of Korea"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Seung Jun","family":"Yoon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Surgery, College of Veterinary Medicine, Institute of Veterinary Science, Kangwon National University","place":["Chuncheon, Republic of Korea"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Junhyung","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Surgery, College of Veterinary Medicine, Institute of Veterinary Science, Kangwon National University","place":["Chuncheon, Republic of Korea"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Heung Myong","family":"Woo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Surgery, College of Veterinary Medicine, Institute of Veterinary Science, Kangwon National University","place":["Chuncheon, Republic of Korea"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1303","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.1993.203.09.1303","article-title":"Treatment of gastric dilatation-volvulus and a rapid method for prevention of relapse in dogs: 134 cases (1988\u20131991)","volume":"203","author":"Meyer-Lindenberg","year":"1993","journal-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc"},{"key":"ref2","first-page":"177","article-title":"Permanent gastropexy as a prophylactic measure against gastric volvulus","volume-title":"J Am Anim Hosp Assoc","author":"Betts","year":"1976"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"253","DOI":"10.5326\/15473317-34-3-253","article-title":"A prospective study of survival and recurrence following the acute gastric dilatation-volvulus syndrome in 136 dogs","volume":"34","author":"Glickman","year":"1998","journal-title":"J Am Anim Hosp Assoc"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"932","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-950X.2013.12043.x","article-title":"Evaluation of two novel self-anchoring barbed sutures in a prophylactic laparoscopic gastropexy compared with intracorporeal tied knots","volume":"42","author":"Spah","year":"2013","journal-title":"Vet Surg"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"319","DOI":"10.1016\/S0167-5877(03)00142-9","article-title":"Benefits of prophylactic gastropexy for dogs at risk of gastric dilatation\u2013volvulus","volume":"60","author":"Ward","year":"2003","journal-title":"Prev Vet Med"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"427","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1748-5827.1975.tb05766.x","article-title":"Operative techniques and recurrence rates associated with gastric volvulus in the dog","volume":"16","author":"Wingfield","year":"1975","journal-title":"J Small Anim Pract"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"103","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1748-5827.1979.tb05945.x","article-title":"Gastric torsion in the dog III.
