🐾 Case of the Mondays 🐾

Say Hi to Quint! He presented to Good Shepherd Veterinary Hospital for a dental cleaning. On preoperative bloodwork, he was found to have elevations in his liver enzymes. Prior to anesthesia, it’s important to figure out why there are abnormalities in the bloodwork! Dr. Hinck and our team further investigated through x-rays and ultrasound, ultimately discovering that Quint had a tumor on one of his liver lobes.

Prior to surgery, additional bloodwork was performed to assess the clotting factors as the liver plays a crucial role in producing these factors. This means we wanted to make sure he wouldn’t have an issue clotting. Dr. Hinck and Dr. Wulf performed surgery to remove the tumor. Thankfully, no additional tumors were found during surgery and Quint recovered well from his procedure!

Quint’s biopsy results revealed a diagnosis of a hepatocellular carcinoma, a malignant (cancerous) tumor. Thanks to the meticulous work of our team, clear margins were achieved, and Quint now has a good prognosis!

At his follow-up appointment last week, Quint’s parents were happy to report that he has been doing wonderfully! We will continue to monitor his liver health down the road with ultrasound and bloodwork!

Case of the Mondays! 🐾

Meet Seamus! Seamus was just 9-10 months old when he came into GSVH for an eye injury. His family had already been told that he needed his eye removed, so they scheduled an enucleation with Dr. Rivers (an enucleation is a surgical procedure that removes the entire eyeball and its contents, leaving the eye muscles and eyelids intact).

Prior to any surgery at GSVH, bloodwork and a full physical exam are always performed. After his physical exam, Dr. Rivers and team believed that with proper medical management, they may be able to save the eye. Dr. Rivers reached out to our local ophthalmologist (Dr. Pucket at OVS) for a second opinion and he agreed that we may have a good chance of saving the eye!

So for the next several weeks, Seamus had follow-up appointments with Dr. Rivers for corneal stains and progress reports / pictures. She needed to tweak his treatment plan a few times but Seamus handled everything like a champ! His parents were very diligent with his treatment plan and even kept his cone on him … despite his protests!

We are happy to say Seamus healed well and was able to keep his eye! He is no longer wearing the cone and happy to finally be playing with his brothers again!

Oh, and he just celebrated his 1st birthday! Happy Birthday, sweet boy! 🎉

So welcome to our new series: A case of the Mondays!

To start us off, let’s celebrate Oscar’s success story! He came to Good Shepherd after being diangosed with pancreatitis. Along with her physical exam, Dr. Wulf did an ultrasound and found a linear foreign body obstruction - it turns out Oscar had eaten the thick twine around some pork butt earlier that week that not only caused the pancreatitis but also an obstruction in his intestines! Oscar was taken to surgery and did well despite needing approximately 8 inches of bowel resected (removed)!

Our team treated him with Panoquell (a medication for his concurrent pancreatitis) and continued supportive care. Oscar was able to go home just 3 days post-op! Dr. Wulf was thrilled to take his staples out recently. His owner reports that “He is back to his mischievous self”!

Pictured below is the mischievous culprit and Dr. Wulf 🐾
