It will address decision-making processes in wound treatment and what products are available to help expedite wound healing. It will also discuss surgical options that can be employed to help close large wounds that may be difficult to utilize basic closure techniques. The last two lectures will focus on tips and tricks that can be utilized by veterinarians interested in the surgical management of pathology that affects both the gastrointestinal system in cats and dogs as well as the urinary tract system in cats.
