045 Gallbladder Disease: Mucocele, Cholecystitis
Manage episode 269848653 series 2586548
Join Yvonne Brandenburg, RVT, VTS SAIM and Jordan Porter RVT, LVT, VTS SAIM as we talk about:
- The gallbladder! You know, that green thing sitting in between two of the lobes of the liver? This week we discuss when the gallbladder sludge becomes too much for the gallbladder to handle, as well as when the wall of the gallbladder becomes thick and grumpy (preach sister). Join us while we knock out some GB knowledge!
Question of the Week
- Knowing what we have learned from this episode, if your personal pet developed a gallbladder mucocele, how would you handle it? Would you start medications since you would be able to closely monitor and recognize the symptoms, or would you just move straight to surgery?
