Partial Wen Resection
surgeryaquatic

Partial Wen Resection surgery on a one year old Oranda goldfish. The purpose of the surgery was to restore the vision that was obscured by the overgrowth of the wen tissue over both eyes. The owner reported lethargy and decreased ability to locate food. The fish was anesthetized using Finquil buffered with sodium bicarb in a water bath. The surgery was a great success and recovery smooth!
