As with humans, cancer rates among our animal friends are constantly increasing If a mass develops on or under an animal skin, it could be a tumor. This tumor can be treated, considerably increasing the life expectancy of the animal. Numerous treatments exist, notably an innovative technology: electrochemotherapy. One session takes about 20 minutes. The animal is anesthetized, then the tumor is cleaned and disinfected.

The DNA cleavage breaks lead to apoptotic cell death and prevents cell division. During the 10 days that follow the session, the dead tumor cells are completely ev...
