Soft-tissue Surgery
Soft-tissue surgery involves any surgical procedure that does not involve bone.
Probably the most common soft-tissue surgery that we perform is the removal of masses or 'lumps'. Happily, many of these lumps turn out to be benign (non-harmful), however there are times when histology reports show us something much more serious. Early detection, removal and diagnosis of any lump on your kitty will ensure the best possible outcome.
Lacerations and abscesses are common occurences in outdoor cats and these often require debridement, cleaning and suturing under anaesthetic.
We also routinely perform anal sacculectomies for kitties with chronic and painful anal sac impaction and infection.
