Pet Soft Tissue Surgery
Our team at Highland Pointe Animal Hospital conducts safe, compassionate veterinary surgery for soft tissue conditions affecting dogs and cats. From mass removals to abdominal procedures, our AAHA-accredited staff ensures every pet receives the highest standard of surgical care.
What Is Pet Soft Tissue Surgery?
Soft tissue surgery includes any surgical procedure not involving bones or joints. Common examples include removing growths, repairing hernias, addressing internal organ conditions, or treating trauma-related injuries.
These procedures are essential for both preventive and corrective care. At Highland Pointe Animal Hospital, every soft tissue surgery is performed with precision and compassion, always prioritizing your pet’s safety and comfort.
How Soft Tissue Surgery Works
Before surgery, your pet receives a complete physical exam and, when appropriate, lab tests or imaging to ensure they are a safe candidate for anesthesia. On the day of surgery, anesthesia is carefully administered and continuously monitored by our trained staff.
The procedure itself varies depending on the pet’s needs. For example, a mass removal may involve a simple excision, while abdominal surgery could include correcting an intestinal obstruction. Throughout the procedure, advanced monitoring equipment tracks heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen levels to keep pets safe.
After surgery, pets recover in a calm environment where our team provides pain management, wound care, and detailed aftercare instructions for pet owners. This full-circle approach ensures a smooth recovery and long-term success.
Why Soft Tissue Surgery Matters
Many conditions requiring surgery—such as tumors, foreign body ingestion, or bladder stones—can become life-threatening if not treated. Soft tissue surgery allows our team to correct these issues quickly and effectively, improving quality of life and helping pets recover fully.

- Resolves life-threatening or painful conditions
