Removal of preputial diverticulum, miniature pig

The preputial diverticulum is clamped at the base in preparation for removal of the diverticulum in a miniature pig. A continuous suture is then placed encompassing the base and the forceps. The forceps are removed and the suture tightened. After the suture is tied off, the stump is released back into the prepuce.
