Pet Surgery: Tumor and Cancer Treatment A High-Risk Case of a Dog with an Enlarged Heart

Performing surgery on pets, especially in complex cases like tumors and an enlarged heart, requires extensive experience and meticulous care. The veterinary team at Erawan Pet Hospital recently handled a critical case involving an 8-year-old dog diagnosed with a mammary tumor while also suffering from an enlarged heart. This made the procedure highly risky and required precise medical expertise.

Risks of Tumors and an Enlarged Heart
The dog's mammary tumor resulted from hormonal imbalances, which are commonly found in unspayed female pets. If left untreated, such tumors can continue to grow, potentially leading to severe health complications. Not spaying female pets increases the risk of hormonal disorders, which may cause mammary tumors or even life-threatening uterine infections as they age.

However, what made this case even more challenging was the discovery of an enlarged heart during the pre-surgical health check. This condition required close monitoring, as any irregular heart rhythms during the surgery could lead to sudden respiratory failure.

A Surgical Team Working with Precision
During the procedure, Erawan Pet Hospital's surgical and cardiology specialists carefully monitored the dog's heart rate and overall body functions using advanced medical equipment. Every second of the surgery was crucial, and the team ensured that all necessary precautions were taken to keep the pet safe.

A Remarkable Recovery
The surgery was successfully completed, and after overcoming the critical phase, the dog began its recovery process. Postoperative care played a vital role in ensuring a smooth recovery, with our veterinarians and nurses providing close, compassionate care. Thanks to this dedicated support, the dog regained its strength and returned to a normal, happy life.
