4844. VET CASE STUDY. Hamster wart or tumour treatments

Vet Case Study by Dr Sing Kong Yuen, BVMS (Glasgow).
Case 1 - WhatsApp tele-consultation by a hamster owner on 18 Jun 2023.
Case 2 - Case study of a hamster with a back skin wart operated and recovered from the Toa Payoh Vets case files.

A lady owner of a dwarf hamster WhatsApp me an image of her hamster's back wart today 18 June 2023. "Is it a wart or tumour? What treatments are available?".  It was very difficult for her to WhatsApp to me sharp images. "Get close-up image of the growth," I WhatsApp. She tried a few images. "Get a video," I texted. But the video was of no use as the owner could not restrain the owner from moving about.

I asked her to schedule an appointment for consultation at Toa Payoh Vets as my tele-consultation could not determine whether the back growth was a wart or tumour.

I am making an educational video about the treatment of hamster wart or tumour. Basically, surgery is the preferred and only option in the vast majority of cases.
