A successful surgery has been performed on a tiny tree frog weighing less than a gram in weight and shorter than 2cm long.
Dr Meaghan Barrow, an RSPCA vet from the Wacol facility, said a nurse found the little amphibian whose tiny lung and intestines were poking out of a hole in its thorax.
Doctors first sedated the frog, then used very tiny instruments to perform the treatment and finally gave it pain relief and antibiotics which were diluted by 1000 times.
The lucky frog was released to the wild once fully recovered.
