Dog Cancer Treatment

Is there any successful cancer treatment for dogs?

Besides the treatment to give a dog more months to live…is there any successful treatment that would give years to a dog?
I don’t know yet…I will have the results in 2 days.
I am just preparing myself for the worse… because my husband does not want to do the treatment if it’s not proven to work… and I am like totally lost.
she does have a liver problem, but it could be something else.

It depends on a lot of different factors:
the type of cancer,
what stage the cancer is in,
where the cancer is located,
whether or not it has metastasized,
the age and overall health of the dog.

Surgery, chemotherapy and radiation are all available for animals—your Vet can suggest what she thinks is the best option.

Ask you vet about oncology specialists in your area if your dog does have cancer. Cornell, Tufts and Angell animal medical centers are all excellent; perhaps you can call one of them and ask some questions.

I am so sorry to hear about your dog. (One of my cats died of a very aggressive form of cancer.)

Best wishes,
Cat

Treatment and Management of Bladder Cancer $200 Bladder cancer is an international public health problem affecting millions of people in both developed and underdeveloped nations. This major urologic malignancy was one of the first cancers to be linked to occupational and environmental exposure to carcinogens. Bladder cancer is the 5 th most common cancer of American men and the 8 th most common cancer of American women. Sixty thousand new cases of the disease are diagnosed each year in the US alone; disease prevalence is high in western nations due to the predominance of the chronic relapsing form of cancer that occurs in these countries (USA prevalence estimated to be 600,000; NCI-SEER database). This single fact makes bladder cancer one of the most expensive cancers to treat. Treatment and Management of Bladder Cancer , drawing on the expertise of an international community of experts in the field, provides the reader with all aspects of diagnosis and treatment pertaining to bladder cancer. As an additional feature, the book will include a cd-rom containing the figures and legends from each chapter in a user-friendly format, in order to further aid the reader.

Treatment Options in Urological Cancer $243.95 Cancer forms a large part of urological practice. Prostate cancer is the most significant and is the second most common cause of male cancer deaths with some 300,000 cases in the USA annually. Cancer of the bladder is also common. While treatment has been primarily surgical, recent years have seen an explosion of new drug therapies for urological cancers. All urologists, whether in training or in practice, need an up-to-date survey of the literature and key findings in this important and controversial field. This book takes each organ in turn (prostate, kidney, bladder, testis and penis) and tackles the controversies head-on by inviting chapters on various (often rival) treatments for each disease. Each section is then concluded by a commentary from the editor which draws together the various strands, outlines the principal areas of consensus and disagreement. Jonathan Waxman is an oncologist who specialises in urological tumours and has developed new treatments for prostate, bladder and kidney cancer and for terminal care, which are now part of standard practice. He founded the Prostate Cancer Charity and helped establish an all-party parliamentary group to improve cancer treatment and research throughout the UK.

Nutrients in Cancer Prevention and Treatment $301.11 In Nutrients in Cancer Prevention and Treatment, leading researchers present the most uptodate findings available on the role of vitamins and diet in both cancer prevention and treatment. Their articles offer new insights into how vitamins act in our bodies and the effects of vitamins on gene regulation.

Several articles illuminate the role of protease inhibitors, calories, exercise, and fat in carcinogenesis.Nutrients in Cancer Prevention and Treatment is an excellent reference source for those involved in nutrition and cancer research, as well as for those oncologists who are treating and caring for cancer patients.
