July 2016. A bladder stone 8 days ago is now lodged inside the urethra. The guinea pig cannot pee. X-rays show the bladder stone 8 days ago and the urethral stones.
Urethral stone removal via the incision of the bladder is the only option.
As the guinea pig is still not eating on his own after 8 days of medication and hand-feeding, the anaesthetic risks of surgery are very high. The owner consented to the risks.
The stone was removed. The guinea pig passed away on the next day.
