Pain Management in Cancer Patient’s, a veterinary pain specialist’ perspective: Part 1

25 Oct 2025
Veterinary Insights Theatre
Anaesthesia

Pain often occurs in oncological patients from a primary tumour (i.e. bone lysis by osteosarcoma), secondary metastasis to effect other systems (i.e. nervous system), and can eventuate to chronic pain if the duration is excessive. However, our understanding of pain and that is taught to veterinarians and veterinary nurses is a gross oversimplification. In reality, a pain circuit exists involving ascending pathways, descending pathways, and other various psycho-physiological and homeostatic processes.
