Dubai: An eight-month-old Pomeranian puppy has become the first patient to undergo the Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) heart surgery in Dubai, to address a congenital heart defect.
Holly, the lovable and lively pup, will be able to live a long and healthy life, thanks to the timely intervention by a team of veterinary surgeons. The diagnosis and treatment of Holly took place at Modern Vet, which is the first and only multi-speciality veterinary hospital in Dubai with the ability to treat PDA in dogs, as well as a plethora of other conditions. If left untreated, PDA is a death sentence to your loyal companion. It can develop into congestive heart failure, which, in simple terms, means that fluid will begin to fill the lungs.
