Abdominal masses are a relatively common finding in older pets, which some can be cancerous and sometimes, by the time they make your pet sick and consequently found, it’s unfortunately too late for treatment because the cancer has already spread to other organs or caused sever irreversible damages.
Finding and if indicated, removing abdominal masses on time, has a significant impact on the life expectancy of your pet and their quality of life, plus it will potentially save you lots of time and money for possible future emergency surgery, and hospitalization under critical care and sometimes chemotherapy treatment.
Yearly comprehensive physical exams, lab work and imaging can help you find these masses in early stages and perform indicated treatment before they can cause your pet any issues.
Ask your veterinarian about an annual physical exam, preventative care lab-work and x-rays if your pet is 6 years and older.
