Video endoscopy is also available for other procedures. This is a minimally invasive procedure that allows a doctor to look inside body cavities for disease or obstructions. This is particularly useful when a pet has a rawhide, bone, or toy lodged in the esophagus (the food tube) or stomach. Video endoscopy enables us to see inside the esophagus and, in certain cases, retrieve the object with the endoscope without having to resort to surgery. In other cases, we will be better able to judge whether the object will pass through the animal’s system, again avoiding surgery.
A consultation with local specialists in a variety of fields is available on a case-by-case basis.
