Uterine Cancer

Lspacehopper

Wise Old Thumper
We put a doe in for a spay today. She was a bun brought in for adoption after being found wandering round the common. We estimated her to be about 2.5years old

She was 'got at' by a male we have in adoption (he cleared the bunny village to get to her), so technically it was an emergency spay. Anway...it was a big blessing when I heard the outcome from the vets.

The vet had never seen such a deformed mess of a uterus which they believed was cancer. She would have had a max of 6 months left to live.

It might be that she's older than we thought, but we just don't know.
 
Poor girl :cry:

Did they do a chest Xray ?
Sadly UC metastasises, usually to the lungs. I really hope that no malignant cells have already spread and the Doe will be OK in the longterm.
 
Oh poor little girl :(

Dumpling had horrific uterine cancer , the vets gave her 6 months to live when she first arrived and but we have had just over a year now :)

I know uterine cancer can develop in bunnies over 2 years, but I was wondering if it was possible if she could have been born with a deformed uterus rather than it being cancer :?
