Bushwa. How busy are these guys?
Three business days. I can't think of any routine paths we did that weren't knocked out in that time span.
Maybe the animal path pipeline is slower.

Out-fucking-standing!
What was the pathology? That's one BMFT.

Thanks everybody!
Found this online:
If you have an older large-breed dog with a splenic mass that has ruptured, the likelihood of this being a benign situation is very low.
Maybe he got luckier than the 33% chance we were cited.
George, the tumor was a hematoma.

What???
How does that happen? What was the source/cause of bleeding? Trauma? Contained aneurysm?

I don't know. I will talk to my regular vet about it in his next appointment, but I expect they won't know either. Hematoma is the most common form of non-cancer splenic masses in dogs. I've been doing my own research.

Pretty much what I thought. Extramedullary hematopoiesis and hemosiderosis. Pretty obvious actually, once you do your own research.
