So I will only show a few relatively \u201ctame\u201d pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon further exam, it looked like the mass was coming from the upper jaw (maxilla) and\/or the the lower jaw (mandible).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clearly, a major reconstructive and possibly disfiguring surgery was necessary to remove the mass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fecchi\u2019s owner had consulted with 3 surgery colleagues, who all had told her that this mass was some horrible cancer that couldn\u2019t be removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given the poor outcome and Fecchi\u2019s lack of appetite, they all told her she should humanely put him to sleep. Yet that option wasn\u2019t good enough for this client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that\u2019s when we met. During the surgery consultation, she insisted on removing the mass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wasn\u2019t so sure it was in the patient\u2019s best interest.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"922\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Fecchi-X-ray.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2512\" style=\"width:615px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Fecchi-X-ray.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Fecchi-X-ray-768x885.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The red arrow shows the round, fuzzy mass in the left jaw.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fecchi had lost weight and wasn\u2019t in very good health because of the tumor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So we compromised and agreed on taking a biopsy first. A week later, the biopsy came back as osteo-chondroma &#8211; a benign tumor of both bone and cartilage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, I didn\u2019t believe it. More convinced than ever about her decision, the owner insisted on removing the mass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a lot of soul-searching, I finally gave in. I accepted to \u201cexplore the area and see what I could do to help.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Granted, removing jaw tumors is not an uncommon procedure. So why the hesitation?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, with the numerous pain management modalities available, we can make these patients comfortable despite aggressive surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, we ended up taking Fecchi to surgery.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It turned out that the mass came from the upper jaw, but on both sides of the jaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the tumor grew bigger and bigger, the teeth of the lower jaw dug sort of a \u201cgutter\u201d into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Surgery was long and challenging. It was followed by reconstruction of the surgery site to make it look as cosmetic as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make sure Fecchi would get enough nutrition after surgery, we placed a feeding tube to inject a special liquid diet directly into the stomach (see the red tube coming out of the skin).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Fecchi-postop-face.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Fecchi-postop-face.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Fecchi-postop-face-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Fecchi\u2019s face right after surgery, and the red feeding tube.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The entire mass was submitted to the lab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Fecchi-mass.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Fecchi-mass.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Fecchi-mass-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A postop view of the mass.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fecchi recovered smoothly from anesthesia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He stayed in ICU overnight, on IV fluids, pain medications, and antibiotics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10 days later, the biopsy report came back. As you can imagine, it concluded\u2026 osteochondroma &#8211; still a benign tumor!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what\u2019s the moral of the story?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fecchi\u2019s owner kind of twisted my arm \u2013 in a nice way \u2013 and she was totally right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Should we always do what clients require?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course not.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Otherwise, we would do ear crops, declaws, and tail docks all day long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s the moral of the story? It is perfectly acceptable to perform a procedure, invasive or not, as long as client and practitioner are on the same page, and the procedure is acceptable and ethical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, it\u2019s good to be pushed out of one\u2019s comfort zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Almost one year later, Fecchi was reportedly doing great at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe surgical site looks great,\u201d the owner says. \u201cYou can\u2019t even tell that he ever had surgery.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to learn how we can help your pet with safe surgery and anesthesia, please contact us through <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.DrPhilZeltzman.com<\/a><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Never miss a blog by subscribing here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drphilzeltzman.com\/blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.DrPhilZeltzman.com\/blog<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phil Zeltzman, DVM, DACVS, CVJ, Fear Free Certified<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NOTE: This is a free excerpt from my upcoming book about cancer in pets!
