Lung lobectomy is a complex thoracic procedure performed to remove a diseased or damaged section of the lung, often due to tumors, infection, or trauma. At Animal Surgical Care of PA, our experienced surgeons perform lung lobectomies using advanced anesthesia and surgical precision to ensure safety and comfort.
Before surgery, we perform comprehensive diagnostics—such as chest radiographs, CT scans, and blood work—to evaluate lung health and overall patient stability. This preparation allows for accurate planning and minimizes surgical risk.
During the procedure, the affected lung lobe is carefully isolated and removed while preserving healthy tissue and maintaining proper ventilation. Our surgical suite is equipped with specialized instruments and ventilatory support for thoracic procedures.
Pain management and oxygen therapy are key aspects of postoperative care. Our team provides continuous monitoring to ensure your pet’s comfort and respiratory stability.
Most pets recover well with supportive care and follow-up imaging to confirm successful healing. Many go on to enjoy a full, active life after recovery.
Animal Surgical Care of PA proudly offers advanced lung surgery for pets throughout Pennsylvania—combining skill, compassion, and life-saving expertise.
