Preparing for Surgery
Common Soft Tissue Surgeries in Pets
- Foreign Body Removal Surgery: This surgical procedure involves the precise extraction of foreign objects from your pet’s digestive tract. It is crucial for preventing obstructions that can lead to severe digestive issues, pain, and even life-threatening conditions.
- Mass Removal Surgery: Mass removal surgery focuses on the safe and effective extraction of growths, tumors, or lumps from your pet’s body. Early removal is essential to prevent malignancy and potential complications.
- Spay and Neuter Surgeries: Spaying (ovariohysterectomy) and neutering (orchiectomy) surgeries involve the removal of reproductive organs. These routine procedures play a critical role in controlling pet populations, reducing the risk of reproductive diseases, and promoting responsible pet ownership.
- Bladder Stone Removal Surgery: This surgical intervention aims to remove bladder stones, relieving discomfort and preventing urinary tract issues that can cause pain and discomfort to your pet.
- Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) Repair Surgery: Brachycephalic breeds, such as bulldogs and pugs, often suffer from breathing difficulties. BOAS repair surgery addresses these issues, improving their quality of life by enhancing their breathing ability.
Routine or Complex. Surgical care for cats and dogs.
- Skin Growths or Tumors Surgery: Surgical removal of skin growths or tumors is crucial to prevent malignancy and the potential spread of cancer. Early intervention is essential for the best possible outcome.
- C-Section (Caesarean Section): In cases where natural birth is not possible, a C-section ensures the safe delivery of puppies or kittens and protects the health of the mother.
- Intestinal Obstruction Surgery: Addressing blockages in the intestines is crucial for preventing life-threatening digestive issues. Surgery can save your pet’s life in these situations.
- Prophylactic Gastropexy: Prophylactic gastropexy is a preventive surgery that secures the stomach to the abdominal wall. It is especially important in certain dog breeds to reduce the risk of gastric torsion (bloat), a life-threatening condition.
- Cystotomy: Cystotomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of bladder stones or treatment of bladder issues, alleviating discomfort and preventing urinary tract infections.
- Skin Lacerations: Surgical repair of deep skin lacerations is essential for promoting proper healing, preventing infection, and ensuring the best possible recovery for your pet.
