from castration to broken bones
The field of surgery is diverse and deals with diseases in all regions of the body that can be treated through surgery. In veterinary medicine, a distinction is usually made between two large groups: soft tissue surgery and orthopedic surgery.
Soft tissue surgery includes procedures in the abdominal area, i.e. abdominal surgery, for example in the case of castrations or cesarean sections, tumors, foreign bodies, intussusceptions of the intestines or stomach twists. Interventions in/on the chest (thoracic surgery) are often necessary after traumatic injuries or tumors. Areas of trauma surgery are also touched upon. Reconstructive or plastic surgery is used to treat larger injuries following bites or burns.
The field of bone surgery and orthopedic surgery includes, on the one hand, interventions on the bones such as fracture treatment and, on the other hand, damage to ligaments and joints such as cruciate ligament tears. Since such injuries are often caused by trauma, there is often additional extensive damage to soft tissue and muscles.
All procedures take place under anesthesia adapted to the respective needs. General anesthesia or general anesthesia refers to a reversible state of unconsciousness (hypnosis), muscle relaxation (immobilization, relaxation) and pain relief (analgesia) caused by anesthetics. Local anesthesia, on the other hand, limits the complete elimination of pain sensation caused by anesthetics to certain regions of the body by reversibly blocking nerve transmission after application or injection of local anesthetics/analgesics.
Tooth and Co.
Oral cavity diseases are among the most common problems in dogs, cats and small pets. The diseases hardly differ from those of humans - periodontitis, tooth fractures, tooth resorption, oral cavity infections and tumors. However, none of the affected animals can draw attention to it to the same extent as humans. Dogs, cats and small pets often have to deal with all sorts of painful illnesses that affect their general well-being over a long period of time, if not a serious one
- Examination and targeted treatment eliminate the problem.
