If your dog is suffering from chronic ear infections or severe ear disease, Total Ear Canal Ablation with Lateral Bulla Osteotomy (TECA-LBO) surgery could be the solution.
At DermVet, we provide expert dermatology and ear surgery services, including TECA-LBO, to help dogs regain comfort and improve their quality of life.
What Is TECA-LBO Surgery?
TECA-LBO is a complex yet highly effective surgical procedure designed to remove the entire ear canal in cases where medical treatments have failed. This is often necessary for dogs suffering from persistent otitis externa, ear polyps, or tumours that cause significant pain and discomfort. The surgery eliminates the source of infection and inflammation, preventing further recurrence.
At DermVet, we understand how distressing chronic ear disease can be for both pets and owners. Our experienced veterinary surgeon, who is an expert in the field, performs TECA-LBO with precision and care, ensuring the best possible outcome for your dog’s treatment and recovery.
Why Choose DermVet For TECA-LBO?
Unlike general veterinary practices, at DermVet we focus solely on dermatological and ear conditions. This means we have an in-depth understanding of ear diseases and the latest surgical techniques. Our veterinary dermatologist David Bentley has extensive experience in managing complex ear cases and always ensures your pet receives the best care.
We provide:
- Thorough pre-surgical assessments to determine if TECA-LBO is the best option
- Advanced surgical techniques to minimise complications and promote healing
- Post-operative care and support, including pain management and follow-up consultations
The Benefits Of TECA-LBO Surgery
Many dogs experience a dramatic improvement in their comfort and behaviour after TECA-LBO. By removing the diseased ear canal, the chronic pain and infection are eliminated, allowing your pet to enjoy life again.
If your dog has ongoing ear problems that don’t respond to treatment, please contact our friendly team today to discuss whether TECA-LBO surgery could help. With expert care and a compassionate approach, we are committed to improving the well-being of dogs with severe ear conditions.
