080 Inflammatory Polyps

Inflammatory polyps are non-cancerous growths that can develop in the ears, throat, or middle ear of cats and dogs, most often affecting young cats and French Bulldogs. While benign, these growths can cause chronic ear infections, noisy breathing, head tilt, or even neurologic signs if left untreated. In this episode, listeners will learn how CT scans and video otoscopy performed by veterinary dermatology specialists help accurately diagnose and safely remove inflammatory polyps, why steroids are an important part of treatment, and what recovery looks like for pets.
