TL;DR Summary

A 3-month-old French bulldog named Tyson spontaneously regrew most of his lower left jaw after it had to be removed to treat his cancer, marking the first documented case of jaw regeneration in a dog following oral cancer surgery. The surgery left much of the jaw’s periosteum intact, and Tyson's young age likely contributed to the remarkable recovery. While his new jaw isn't as functional as the old one, Tyson remains cancer-free and is living life to the fullest, with hopes that his case can help doctors understand how to achieve similar outcomes for other dogs in the future.
