I've seen 2 cases of intestinal perforations associated with
gastrointestinal lymphoma. The prognosis was grave for these particular
animals and they were both euthanized.
Your case sounds very unusual. With the extent of compromise to the entire
bowel it sounds like the prognosis may not be good. Hope it turns out well
though and that you beat the odds. Good luck.
