PANEL DISCUSSION DESCRIPTION

Routine urogenital surgeries are frequently required and commonly undertaken in small animal general practice (spays, castrations, cystotomies, urethrostomies, etc..).

Join our team of world-leading multidisciplinary specialists in this exciting panel discussion where they will discuss and debate the commonly encountered pitfalls and management of postoperative complications following routine surgical procedures of the urogenital tract, including haemorrhage, urine leakage, urinary tract infection, haematuria, urethral stricture, ovarian remnant syndrome, scrotal swelling, and much more.

Case examples will be used to highlight key points and share useful tips. This is a unique opportunity for attending veterinarians to share their experience and ask questions of our experts.

After completing veterinary school and an internship at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Aronson undertook a small animal surgical residency at the University of California, Davis (UCD). From 1994-1996 she was the coordinator of the renal transplantation program for animals at UCD. Following her residency, she joined the faculty at the University of Pennsylvania – where she is currently Professor of Surgery – and started their renal transplantation program. Her clinical interests include all areas of soft tissue surgery, but in particular microvascular surgery and complex urinary tract surgery (including renal transplantation), and treatment of urolithiasis. As well as frequently lecturing in her specialist fields, she is the author of a textbook on small animal surgical emergencies.
