Firstly, a laparotomy is required for many cases of Alimentary lymphoma to obtain biopsy material. For solitary masses without systemic disease resection and anastomosis of the intestine is advised (single modality treatment). Local resection in cats has occasionally been curative.  Other focal lyphoma may also be resected, however surgery alone may be insufficient for long-term control of the disease and if not all the tumour is able to be resected, or should relapse occur, or if there is systemic progression, chemotherapy will be required(multimodal treatment).
