Surgeons in Melbourne, Australia performed an unusual operation. They removed the tumor that threatened the life of the goldfish.
George's owners, that's the name of an unusual patient, love their 10-year-old pet very much. When they found out that the fish had a tumor, they immediately decided to do everything to save his life.
Because the patient needed to be given general anesthesia, the fish was placed to swim in a bucket of anesthetic. After the operation, George was placed in a bucket of plain water, given painkillers and antibiotics.
The operation lasted 45 minutes and went like clockwork, doctors say. According to their forecasts, after her George will live another 20 years. The patient feels well and has already returned to his beloved aquarium.
