The story of Tsatsuna the Raccoon

12 October 2025

The raccoon, Tsatsuna, underwent laparoscopic ovariectomy.

The procedure was performed by Lasha-Giorgi Japaridze, Head of the Surgical Department, with anesthesia managed by Natia Robakidze, anesthesiologist. Mari Kapanadze assisted the surgeon during the operation.

Given the scarcity of high-quality scientific literature on laparoscopic ovariectomy in raccoons, we plan to prepare a detailed description of this clinical case and submit it as a Clinical Case Report to an international peer-reviewed journal.
