Soft Tissue

A 7 year old neutered male Staffie presented to us at West Midlands Veterinary Referrals with a urethral prolapse resected and sutured around a catheter. The catheter was then removed. The prognosis is generally very good for these cases.

Lucy, a 6y female Border Collie, presented to us at West Midlands Veterinary Referrals with worryingly low glucose levels caused by an insulinoma, a pancreas tumour.

Wickett, an elderly cat, had progressive constipation and needed enemas every 2-3 weeks.  We removed the lion’s share of his colon at our state-of-the-art practice in Burton-Upon-Trent, and he’s now recuperating. Early indications are good; these surgeries carry a significant perioperative mortality rate.

Chris joined our team in 2019 in Burton-Upon-Trent, and we’ve been pretty impressed with his skills with an endoscope! He has removed a number of grass seeds from secondary and tertiary bronchi. These cases usually present with chronic coughs and sometimes signs of grumbling infection and fever.

Louis, a 1year old Springer Spaniel, presented to us at West Midlands Veterinary Referrals with a massive palate defect. We are frankly amazed that he had managed to survive puppyhood. Drinking milk is no easy task when you can’t make a seal in your mouth to suck.
