Tumor

What Causes Pet Tumors?

Tumors occur due to the uncontrolled multiplication of body cells instead of the natural cycle where old cells die. There are two main types of tumors in pets: benign and malignant. Benign tumors can grow large but are not cancerous and do not easily spread to other healthy tissues in the pet's body. On the other hand, malignant tumors are cancerous and can be fatal if immediate action is not taken. The most obvious sign that your pet has a tumor is an unusual lump on the skin. You may also notice weight loss, open wounds, discharge, mobility problems, and a decrease in your pet's activity stamina. It's important to visit a veterinarian as soon as you notice any unusual signs in your pet for examination and possible tumor removal.

No matter what type of tumor your dog has been diagnosed with, we are here to assist you.

The Process: How We Do It

Once you bring your pet to us, we will take a few cell samples for analysis to determine the exact type of tumor your pet has. In some cases, we may also conduct scans of the liver and other internal parts depending on the tumor's location. After evaluating your pet's health, we will schedule them for the tumor removal process.

We use pet anesthesia to ensure your pet's comfort during the surgery. After the procedure, your pet will have stitches and may need to wear a bandage to protect the area. However, they should recover within 10 to 14 days. The recovery time depends on the tumor type, your dog's age, and the surgical technique used. We will provide you with recovery tips to help your pet regain their health as quickly as possible.
