Pet Laparoscopic Surgery at Brown Creek Animal Hospital in Polkton, NC
Experience the advanced benefits of pet laparoscopic surgery at Brown Creek Animal Hospital. Discover minimally invasive procedures for faster recovery and enhanced pet care outcomes.
What is Pet Laparoscopic Surgery?
Pet laparoscopic surgery at Brown Creek Animal Hospital provides a minimally invasive alternative to traditional procedures. This advanced technique involves making 1-3 small incisions, akin to keyholes, through the body wall. Through these tiny openings, specialized surgical instruments are inserted, accompanied by a laparoscopic camera. This camera provides real-time video feedback, enabling precise navigation and manipulation of organs during procedures.
Pet Laparoscopic Procedures Available at Brown Creek Animal Hospital:
Here are the details of the laparoscopic procedures offered at our hospital:
- Ovariectomy (Spays):
An ovariectomy involves the removal of a female pet’s ovaries through small abdominal incisions. This procedure is essential for preventing pregnancy and reducing the risk of reproductive diseases like pyometra. - Gastropexy (Stomach Tacking in Large Dogs):
Gastropexy is performed to prevent gastric dilation volvulus (GDV) or bloat in large dog breeds. By attaching the stomach to the abdominal wall, laparoscopic gastropexy minimizes the risk of life-threatening stomach twisting. - Organ Biopsies:
Laparoscopic organ biopsies are used for obtaining tissue samples from organs like the liver, kidneys, or spleen. These samples are crucial for diagnosing diseases and planning appropriate treatment, offering faster recovery and less postoperative discomfort. - Cryptorchid Surgery:
Cryptorchid surgery addresses undescended testicles in male pets. Laparoscopic procedures locate and remove undescended testicles through small incisions, preventing future health issues like tumors and infertility.
These advanced laparoscopic procedures at Brown Creek Animal Hospital offer numerous benefits, including minimal invasiveness, shorter recovery times, and reduced postoperative discomfort, ensuring optimal outcomes for your pet’s health and well-being.
