Coco Undergoes Laparoscopic Spay Surgery at Veterinarium

This is Coco, a 6-month-old mixed-breed kitten, who underwent laparoscopic spay surgery at Veterinarium. 

Thanks to this minimally invasive approach, postoperative recovery is significantly faster, the patient experiences less pain, the incisions are smaller, and the risk of infection and complications is considerably reduced. 

The laparoscopic surgical procedure was performed by Dr. Lasha-Giorgi Japaridze, Head Veterinarian at Veterinarium, who holds a Master’s degree in Veterinary Medicine, is a PhD candidate at the Agricultural University of Georgia, and a lecturer in surgical disciplines.

The surgeon was assisted by Luka Ghlonti, a Master’s student at the School of Veterinary Medicine of the Agricultural University of Georgia.

Anesthesia was successfully managed by Natia Robakidze, who has undergone specialized anesthesiology training in Poland, Estonia, and Italy.

At Veterinarium, laparoscopic procedures are performed using the latest high-technology equipment - the Mindray UX5 4K/NIR system, equipped with 4K fluorescent imaging capability.

For anesthesia, the Veta 5 Premium device is used, enabling precise patient monitoring, inhalation anesthesia, and effective lung ventilation through a controlled mechanical ventilation system.
