Ear disease is a common complaint in first opinion practice and is commonly managed with topical treatment. However intractable ear disease can be a challenge and lead to the need for protracted and expensive treatment. This webinar provides a step by step guide to the diagnosis of surgical disease of the canine and feline ear. We will discuss common surgeries including TECA/LBO and ventral bulla osteotomy and how to recognise and manage common post-operative complications.
