Vasectomy is a minor surgical procedure wherein the vasa deferentia of a man are severed, and then tied or sealed in a manner such to prevent sperm from entering the seminal stream (ejaculate). Typically done in an outpatient setting, a traditional vasectomy involves numbing (local anesthetic) of the scrotum after which 1 (or 2) small incisions are made, allowing a surgeon to gain access to the vas deferens.
In this video, Professor Dan Reinstein performs a bilateral LASIK procedure filmed in real-time to demonstrate the full 8 and-a-half minute procedure from multiple angles. The superior design and experience of the Carl Zeiss Meditec Visumax femtosecond Laser for flap creation is seen, where the patient is only in contact with the device for about 30 seconds with extremely low contract force such that the patient feels effectively nothing, there are no red splodges (subconjunctival haemorages) left behind. From the surgeons' standpoint there is no device that is easier to use or faster for LASIK flap creation. The Carl Zeiss Meditec MEL80 excimer laser portion of the procedure is seamlessly integrated and incorporates all the features that make clinical outcomes so reproducible including the unique cone-for-controlled-atmosphere (CCA) and high efficiency, high sensitivity calibration test which can be performed for each individual patient to compensate for minor changes in energy that occur with excimer laser devices during the course of a day.

Surgical site infections (SSIs) remain a prevalent threat to patient safety. Proper surgical hand scrub or rub techniques are essential to decreasing the incidence of SSIs. This video provides instructions on the anatomical surgical hand scrub procedure using the brushstroke method.

Myelomeningocele remains the most complex congenital malformation of the central nervous system that is compatible with life. This lesion results when the neural tube fails to fold normally during postovulatory Days 21 to 27.[6] The exact cause of disorders remains under some historical debate and is not within the scope of this paper. Myelomeningocele within the context of this discussion refers only to lesions that involve an open caudal neural tube defect on the surface of the skin
Watch Spinal Stenosis Videos Spinal stenosis occurs when the spinal cord in the neck (cervical spine) or the spinal nerve roots in the lower back (lumbar spine) are compressed. Symptoms of lumbar stenosis often include leg pain (sciatica) and leg tingling, weakness, or numbness. Arm pain is a typical symptom of cervical spinal stenosis. For cervical spinal stenosis with myelopathy, difficulty with coordination often occurs. Stenosis treatment may include non-surgical options (exercise, anti-inflammatory medication, epidural injections, and activity modification) or back surgery.

“Neurosurgery necessitates a very high level of detail involving complex procedures. I’m a very intense person inside the hospital and I feel like neurosurgery matched that level of intensity.”
It’s that intensity that made Dr. Jonathan Pindrik want to become a neurosurgeon. But it’s his certainty and skill inside the operating room that make him one of the best pediatric neurosurgeons in the country.
Dr. Pindrik is a neurosurgeon at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. While he performs multiple complex brain and spinal procedures each week, he also specializes in surgical intervention for children with epilepsy. Dr. Pindrik serves as co-director of the Epilepsy Surgery Program at Nationwide Children’s Epilepsy Center. It’s level-four accreditation means we offer the highest level of epilepsy care including advanced epilepsy surgery.

The diffuse lung diseases tend to cause infiltrative opacification in the periphery of the lung. As the name of the group of diseases suggests, they are diffuse. While the consolidation or ground-glass change is usually bilateral, it may be localised, e.g. radiation pneumonitis.
Train with some of the region’s very best pediatric general surgeons — in a two-year, pediatric surgical fellowship training program at Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children. Our hospital’s Division of Pediatric Surgery is offering this program in affiliation with Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University .
The goal of the fellowship is to give individuals who have completed an accredited general surgery residency advanced knowledge and training in the management and surgical treatment of newborns, infants and children.
Our Fellowship Program
This fellowship will help you prepare for certification by the American Board of Surgery, and is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).
The Pediatric Surgery Fellowship aims to:
train a well-rounded, empathetic, safe pediatric surgeon who is confident managing all aspects of the surgical care of children.
steward our fellow in quality improvement projects and methodology, and provide research opportunities.
provide a rigorous didactic curriculum for our fellow utilizing 360 degree feedback.
cultivate opportunities for our fellow to educate residents and students.
encourage our fellow to collaborate across specialties.
develop our fellow’s presentation skills during M&M conferences and multi-disciplinary educational meetings.
The program features the full participation of all nine of the pediatric surgical division’s full-time faculty members. Each of these physicians will contribute greatly to your education. Your training will include operating room and outpatient clinic experience, as well as bedside evaluation of children. You’ll also play a role in the organization of formal teaching conferences, held weekly. Formal rotations will be spent on Pediatric Urology, PICU and Neonatology during the first 12 months. The last year will be spent entirely on the Pediatric Surgical Service.
The majority of your inpatient consultative time will take place at Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children, a freestanding children’s hospital in Wilmington, Del. The hospital:
is nationally ranked by U.S. News & World Report in eight pediatric specialties
recently opened expansion with 260 beds
performs more than 2,800 inpatient and 9,300 outpatient surgical procedures each year in our operating rooms
has an on-site delivery center for newborns with complex congenital anomalies
receives more than 50,000 annual visits in our Emergency Department (ED)
is accredited by The American College of Surgeons as a Level One Pediatric Trauma Center
is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF)
