A brain surgery called a craniectomy is performed to remove a part of your skull in order to relieve pressure in an area when your brain swells from a traumatic brain injury. It is also performed to treat medical conditions that cause your brain to swell or bleed that can be caused by an aneurysm, brain tumor or other cancer.
This 3d animation shows how the surgical procedure decreases intracranial pressure (ICP), intracranial hypertension (ICHT), or heavy bleeding (also called hemorrhaging) inside your skull. If left untreated, pressure or bleeding can compress your brain and push it down onto the brain stem. This can be fatal or cause permanent brain damage.
Brain surgery is a very serious procedure under any circumstances, but a craniectomy is done when there is an immediate risk to the brain and neurological function due to severe brain injury or stroke.

http://www.amerra.com In this patient education video from Colorectal Surgical Associates in Houston, Texas, learn more about the single incision laparoscopic colectomy procedure. This minimally invasive procedure uses a mini incision that
results in less pain, fewer complications, earlier recovery, and a smaller scar. Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States. For more information please visit our website: www.csamd.com or call (713)-790-0600.
Before Dr. Benjamin Carson became the first person to successfully separate twins conjoined at the head, before he had a TV movie made about his life, before he became known for his "gifted hands" and before he became head of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins, Ben Carson was headed down the wrong path in life.
Children are special patients, and their medical needs are unique, including their surgical needs. At UNC Hospitals, an expert and experienced team of physicians treat children in a kid-friendly and family-centered environment. UNC Pediatric Surgeon Dr. Timothy Weiner explains
Laparoscopic surgery is minimally-invasive (keyhole) surgery and it is performed through very small incisions, using a camera to guide the surgeon during the procedure. Miss Sarah Mills, a top colorectal surgeon, explains why laparoscopic surgery is performed over alternative methods.

Join the Amoeba Sisters a they explore different muscle tissues and then focus on the sliding filament theory in skeletal muscle! This video also briefly talks about muscle naming, some vocabulary (such as agonists and antagonists) before focusing on the sliding filament model. Video also mentions general roles of tropomyosin and troponin.
