This is an 8 year old FS Standard Poodle who became acutely anorexic and febrile. Liver values very high (ALT 3800, ALP 5900, T bili 2.9), WBC 21K. After imaging, sent her for surgery. Was a very large, necrotic liver mass consuming the left middle liver lobe (other lobes looked ok). After resecting the left middle liver lobe and giving a couple of blood transfusions, patient was doing well and prognosis thought to be good. Just wanted to share a pretty impressive image.

Wow that’s a whopper!! impressive thanks for sharing hope he makes it through sx. Can drain it US guided for temporary solution and inject body weight dose of baytril til sx can be done. Just never inject the kidneys… I’ve done the liver multiple times without issue.
