3584. A dwarf hamster has a gigantic haematoma

2 May 2021. VETERINARY ANAESTHESIA AND SURGERY. 3 IMAGES. The owner's vet does not perform hamster anaesthesia and surgery and suggested euthanasia when the hamster stopped eating or was too ill. The owner surfed the internet and found Toa Payoh Vets. The large swelling was a haematoma with serosanguineous fluid. 

A cluster of grape-like nodules hid inside. The anaesthesia was high risk as the hamster was aged, thin, eating less and had the swelling for more than 3 weeks. The owner consented to the risks of death on the operating table. A happy ending for the owner.
