Unweaned kittens in animal shelters. Almost all animal shelters will immediately kill unweaned kittens, as they do not have the resources to feed the kittens around the clock. The Austin Animal Center calls APA! when an unweaned kitten comes in and our volunteers immediately transfer the kitten(s) to our Neonatal Kitten Nursery.
The typical outpatient surgical procedure for cyst removal is to numb the area around the cyst with a local anaesthetic, then to use a scalpel to open the lesion with either a single cut down the center of the swelling, or an oval cut on both sides of the centerpoint. If the cyst is small, it may be lanced instead.
Most ovarian cysts are not cancerous. Most ovarian cysts are diagnosed with ultrasound or physical examination. Transvaginal ultrasound is a common way to examine ovarian cysts. The treatment of an ovarian cyst depends upon the cause of the cyst and varies from observation and monitoring to surgical treatment.
