Snowy recently had a growth removed from under her lip. It had doubled in size over a 3 month period and looked very red and dangerous. The histopathology revealed it was a plasmacytoma. These can occur on the pinnae, ear canals, face or feet and are mostly solitary, but can be multiple. Most of these type of growths are benign and are curable when surgically removed. This is good news for Snowy. In rare cases, they can grow on other body parts and can precede the development of cancer. I'm positive, this won't be the case for Snowy.
She had her stitches out today and she was such a good little girl.
