Abstract
Diferentes afecções podem acometer o trato urinário inferior dos felinos, acarretando sinais clínicos inespecíficos como: hematúria, disúria, polaquiúria, estrangúria, periúria ou obstrução, caracterizando a doença do trato urinário inferior dos felinos (DTUIF). Entretanto, em até 65% dos felinos acometidos, a etiologia é indeterminada, denominada de doença idiopática do trato urinário inferior dos felinos (DTUIF idiopática), que tem se mostrado como um desafio ao clínico veterinário, uma vez que não há diagnóstico específico ou terapia efetiva. Atualmente, tem sido estudado o papel da inflamação neurogênica da bexiga urinária secundária ao estresse, como etiologia da DTUIF idiopática. Há evidências científicas de que a acupuntura restaure a homeostase, reduza o estresse e, pela estimulação neural periférica, ative mecanismos endógenos de antinocicepção, regulando a liberação de mediadores dos mecanismos da dor e do processo inflamatório, como a substância P. O objetivo desta revisão bibliográfica foi descrever como a acupuntura pode ser um recurso na terapia da DTUIF idiopática, tendo como base a modulação da inflamação neurogênica da bexiga urinária e o controle do estresse desses gatos.
Several diseases may affect feline lower urinary tract, causing unspecific signs such as: hematuria, dysuria, pollakiuria, stranguria, periuria or urethral obstruction, which are clinically described as feline lower urinary tract disease (FLUTD). However, FLUTD is of unknown etiology in up to 65% cases, named as idiopathic feline lower urinary tract disease (idiopathic FLUTD), which is a challenge to veterinary, since there is nor diagnostic or effectiveness treatment available. Recently, many studies have evaluated the role of neurogenic inflammation related to stress as etiology factor to idiopathic FLUTD. There are scientific evidences that acupuncture recuperate homeostasis, reduce stress and, by peripheral nerves stimulation, active endogenous antinociception mechanisms, modulating inflammatory and pain mediators' release, such as substance P. The aim of this review was to describe how acupuncture may be recommended to idiopathic FLUTD therapy, based in modulating bladder neurogenic inflammation and reducing the stress in these cats.
