We routinely perform surgical procedures such as elective spay and neuter, and general soft tissue procedures such as cystotomy, splenectomy and mass removals as well as emergency surgery and more advanced procedures such
as anal sacculectomy, cruciate repair and perineal urethrostomy to name a few.
In addition to general veterinary medicine, Dr. van Beuren has surgical training in a variety of specialty areas including vasectomies, tubal litigations, gonadal implants, mastectomies, splenectomies, gastrointestinal surgery, bladder stone removal, and
anal sacculectomy.
If the anal sacs are associated with the fistulas,
an anal sacculectomy may be performed to remove the anal sacs.
Procedures for the canine labs include laryngeal tie - back, TECA - LBO, forelimb amputation, perineal hernia repair, salivary gland resection, scrotal urethrostomy, chest drain placement,
anal sacculectomy, gastropexy and rapid splenectomy.
The occasional blockage is not serious, however, repeated or severe anal gland blockages warrant surgical intervention called an «
anal sacculectomy.»
