    In some cases, the usual treatment of dogs or cats involving the administration of drugs is not enough, and there is a need to surgically remove pathological lesions formed on soft tissues. The range of services at our 24-hour Vetriver Clinic includes veterinary surgery, which allows us to perform not only routine procedures such as sterilization or neutering of animals, but also removal of kidneys or skin tumors, as well as intervention when the patient's life is in danger. Remember, however, that prevention is much easier than treatment of animals - that is why it is worth opting for sterilization or castration surgery to minimize the risk of certain diseases.

    When an operation is performed, there is always a veterinary surgeon in the room, as well as an anesthesiologist and technician. Before the start of the surgery, the patient is given inhalation anesthesia using a special apparatus with a vaporizer for isoflurane. This method is also used when anesthetizing and treating humans.

    Every veterinary surgery is preceded by appropriate tests, which make it possible to diagnose the problem. If the treatment plan requires it, surgery is performed. During it, the vital parameters of the dog or cat are constantly monitored using diagnostic equipment. As a result, the veterinary surgeon has the health of the animal under constant control.

  • Examples of surgical procedures

    Spay

    We perform this type of veterinary surgery out of concern for the ever-increasing number of homeless animals that are forced to live in shelters - often with no prospect of changing their situation. Spaying entails a number of benefits, such as the prevention of certain diseases (e.g., pyometra), the prevention of problems related to heat, as well as hormonal problems and false pregnancies. In addition, spaying reduces the risk mammary and uterine cancer, which reduces the risk of having to treat the animal in the future.

    Neuter

    Probably every dog or cat owner will admit that it is not easy to keep your pet at home when dogs and cats in the neighborhood are in heat. In order to prevent strays and not expose your pet to unnecessary illnesses and yourself to medical costs, veterinarians encourage you to have your pet spayed or neutered. This is a routine surgical procedure that has many benefits. Among other things, neutering a cat and dog reduces aggression caused by high testosterone levels, and prevents testicular cancer. In addition, after the procedure performed by a veterinarian, owners do not have to worry that their pet will run away when it senses a female in heat.
