Surgical question (piggy owners who had stones removed from their cavies)

[sozansound2]

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this but due let me know.

I wanted to know if a guinea pig has bladder stones and needs surgery to remove it, is the incision large, small or microscopic?

Just wanted to know on people's experiences on this.

The size of the incision varies with bladder stone removal based on where the stone is located and what else is involved, but in general it can be a fairly large incision.

Is there a particular reason why you're asking? If it's related to your own guinea pig having surgery, it would be best to post this and any follow-up questions on his or her medical thread.

I believe he may have one but nothing is confirmed as of yet. Just speculating incase that is the case.
