Pet tumour surgery
While diagnosis of any abnormal growth in a pet can be a worrying time, as like people tumours can either be benign or malignant.
We can investigate a new or long-term growth – either recommending immediate surgery, or taking samples or performing tests to understand the growth better before advising you on the treatment options.
Rest assured, we’re here for you and your pet. Which for us means offering you honest advice on the treatment options and prognosis. While most tumours are best removed, in some cases drug or palliatively care can be advised to give you and your pet the best quality of life.
There are lots of different types of tumours, but examples that we commonly see are:
- Mast cell tumours
- Testicular tumours
- Eyelid tumours
- Soft tissue tumours (sarcomas)
- Bone tumours
- Cutaneous (skin) tumours
If you’re concerned that your pet may have a tumour or would like more information on the surgical services available at Animal Trust, contact your local vet surgery to chat to our team.
