Bixby My little boy is six months old and yesterday was diagnosed with a Porto Systemic Shunt. He doesn't know he is sick and neither did we until yesterday. When all the blood panels come back and this is in fact an accurate diagnosis he will face a surgical procedure to correct this problem. How serious is this surgical procedure? I would appreciate any information from the Yorkie family owners. To say the least, we are very concerned. SB |

I have no answers for you, but I will keep your baby :aimeeyork Bixby in my prayers for a speedy recovery. |
Check out the Sick and Injured forum on this site and you will find a lot of information on liver shunt. I hope your baby will be just fine. |
While the procedure is very serious....lots of pets have had it done without any complications and lead long healthy lives. Here's a link to additional information... Portosystemic Shunts FAQ |
