man i love surgery
(i watch wayyy too much grey's)
but ortho surgery surely not my cup of tea
why not, u ask?
apart from being physically challenged for da job
imagine skru-ing n hammering n gerudi-ing ppl
-all dat nerve biting n teeth grinding noises-
totally not me
nevertheless i went to watched 1 n a half of ortho surgery today
pretty interesting
n extremely exciting
read:first scrub, first time in OR yada yada u get the pic
the 1st patient have partial rotator cuff tear
so the surgeon just tear it completely and stitch it up
-sliding stitch is so coooool!-
the 2nd patient have a dislocation of shoulder
didn't get to watch the whole repair
but wat the doc try to do was basically try to get the humerus (dats ur arm bone) into the glenoid fossa (dats the cup where ur arm bone suppose to sits) and try to anchor it there so no more dislocation in da future
pretty neat i must say
i wish i can watch a hip replacement or ligament repair
dat would be bloody and messy and just down right awesome!
