Marcelo Araujo, who posed the picture on his Facebook page, joked: “A rare occurrence. A swimmer is hit by a fish.”
He added: “We were alerted to an incident where an
object had penetrated a swimmer’s stomach and when we got there,
discovered it was a fish.
“She was in a lot of pain. We didn’t remove the spine
because only a doctor can do this. We took her to hospital so she could
have microsurgery.
“Generally we deal with people who have stood on fish or
have cut a finger touching one, but I’ve never seen a catfish stuck to
someone’s stomach. It was definitely a first.”
