He was administered drug treatment which was ineffective. An Italian surgeon operated on him twice to arrest the cavity formation in the lungs. But even this measure failed to control the development of the disease. Tuberculosis process continued to develop and the life of the patient was in danger. The Italian physician refused (отказался) to operate on him for the third time. One of the prominent Italian surgeons told Pietro's relatives that he would die if the third operation was performed. One day Pietro saw a photograph of the Soviet surgeon Professor Lev Bogush, a well-known Soviet specialist in lung operations. The idea came to Pietro of asking Soviet doctors to perform the third operation. He went to the Italy-USSR Society and asked to help him. When Pietro Anello came to the Soviet Union Professor Bogush operated on him for the third time. The operation was successful and Pietro's life was saved.
