What Are Common Types of Soft Tissue Surgery?
Soft tissue surgery is most commonly used for biopsies for possible cancer. If your pet has a large cancerous mass, our team will use this procedure to properly remove it from his or her body. This type of surgery may also be used for conditions impacting the gastrointestinal, respiratory, cardiothoracic, and urogenital systems. It can help treat conditions that affect the throat, ears, or nose.
What Can I Expect from Soft Tissue Surgery?
In most cases, your pet will spend the night before surgery in our animal hospital. This allows your pet to get used to the surroundings. We can also monitor the level of pain your pet may be experiencing and deliver the proper amount of anesthesia when needed. The length of time your pet stays in the hospital after surgery is based on a few factors. It depends on the type of surgery, your pet's level of pain, and how well we believe your pet is doing post-surgery. After surgery, we will monitor your pet's vitals and get him or her home to you as soon as possible.
