Endoscopic Exploration

Internal Exploration with Minimally Invasive Techniques An endoscope is a flexible tube equipped with a viewing port and a video camera, designed to be inserted into the stomach through the mouth or the colon via the rectum. This advanced tool permits internal inspection of these hollow organs, providing full-color, real-time visuals of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, or colon. While the endoscopic procedure offers immediate visual results, the final diagnosis often relies on the pathologist's analysis of biopsied samples, which may take up to a week.

To ensure a safe and comfortable experience, general anesthesia is administered to pets during endoscopic procedures, typically involving short-acting anesthesia, allowing them to return home shortly after the completion of the procedure.

At our facility, we embrace minimally invasive veterinary surgical techniques, offering numerous benefits such as shorter anesthesia time, smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, and overall safer surgical procedures. Our minimally invasive surgical services include foreign body removal from the digestive tract using endoscopes, digestive tract biopsies, urinary stone removal, and ear polyp removal.
