Meet Viggo, a three-month-old Maine Coon kitten diagnosed with hydrocephalus — a buildup of too much fluid in the brain.
In this rare, behind-the-scenes documentary, step inside the operating room at UC Davis Health and the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, where human and veterinary neurosurgeons come together for a first-of-its-kind surgery — bringing human and veterinary medicine together in real time.
Follow Viggo’s journey from diagnosis to surgery, see the outcome of the procedure, and catch up with Viggo and his family months later. Along the way, discover how this groundbreaking collaboration could open new possibilities for treating hydrocephalus in animals and humans alike.
