Yorkie Yakker | Elongated soft palate and SPLEEN surgery My little girl now 11 years needs a spleenesectomy done due to a large mass they found on the SPLEEN . The problem is that she also has an elongated soft palate making it difficult to intubation her for surgery . The surgeon recommended correcting the enlongsted soft palate and then doing the spleenesectomy all in the same surgery . Any one here that has gone through this before? Your opinion or help is greatly appreciated. I am terrified about having 2 surgeries done at the same time , but one problem can not be taken care of without the other, the mass on the SPLEEN is just a matter of time before it could burst , no one can tell. I pray to God. |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | So sorry you're having to consider all of this at once - it's a lot to think about it. If it were me and I needed to have the ESP corrected, I would do it when the chance was there since it can cause so many different issues in all the the surrounding textures. Just *make sure* you really, truly understand what recovery is going to be like with both surgeries AND most importantly, have a pain plan for if/when her post-surg pain isn't being managed properly. Please let us know how it goes!
