https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/f/clinical-discussions/31158/otitis-media-surgery-in-rabbits Does anyone have any experience with either nursing or their own rabbits having to have surgical oestotomy for otitis media? One of my mini lops has recently had a CT scan for recurring ear infections and surgical intervention seems the only way forwarden-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/172364?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 24 May 2018 16:01:59 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:ea44d913-b279-4f94-a832-d0db8ccf2eedLucy Hudson<p>No ear base abscess just recurrent ear infection.&nbsp; I&#39;m not sure what procedure needs to be done. I have discussed aftercare and risk of post op complications but because I&#39;m a VN feel they are not really going into the nitty gritty of it.&nbsp; just some idea what to expect would help prepare me. thanks&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/172359?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 23 May 2018 22:10:10 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:a29356cf-3db1-47e2-bdf2-82d0fa12f436claire Speight<p>Really sorry to hear about your bunny. Does he have an ear base abscess that has tracked through to the middle and inner ear? Are they suggesting a TECA and BO? Both have similar complications than in any other species and with rabbits they must be eating soon after surgery...adequate analgesia is imperative. Ive had a bunny have bilateral vertical wall resections some years ago...recovered really well.&nbsp;</p> <p>I&#39;d speak to the refferal practice as they should be able to advise on past cases.</p> <p>Good luck.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
