Laparoscopy seems to offer a safe and reliable diagnostic and therapeutic option to patients with impalpable testes. Intra-abdominal dissection allows more testes to be brought down to the scrotum. The procedure is best viewed as laparoscopy-assisted, as Orchidopexy has to be done in a conventional manner.
She is a twenty years young female presented with large cystic swelling in anterior aspect of neck. The swelling was of size 6cmx 6cm x5 cm ,tense tender, cystic just above sternal nutch.This was diagnosed as large neck abscess ./nRepeated aspiration done but the swelling reappeared. So Incision & Drainage planned under local anaesthesia./nPatient in supine position. Surgery part painted and draped. Local anaesthesia 2% xylocaine with adrenaline used for field block.After giving local anaesthesia, I used a no 11 blade for stab incision at the most prominent part of the swelling, where skin was thin and fluctuation present./nPus drained form that opening. Little dilatation of opening to be done with artery forceps or sinus forceps. Complete pus drainage to be ensured.Little finger can be introduced inside the pus cavity to ensure proper drainage of pus. The cavity I use to clean with a gauge piece. If necessary curette biopsy can be taken from the wall of the cavity.These wounds usually need daily proper dressing for faster healing.
Ultrasound-guided insertion of an internal jugular vein catheter is demonstrated in this clinical skills video. The narration covers patient positioning, the ultrasound survey of the vein and carotid artery, and needle insertion. It is a training resource for central line placement.
An infected finger abscess is treated here with incision and drainage, a common minor surgical procedure. The recording shows the area being opened so the infection can drain, after local anesthesia is applied to the finger.

ECG interpretation gets a memorable twist in this teaching video, which uses dance movements to represent the waveforms of the electrocardiogram. It is a light-hearted study aid for remembering how electrical activity in the heart appears on a tracing. For students of cardiology. Educational only — not medical advice.
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a fertility treatment that involves placing sperm inside a woman's uterus to facilitate fertilization. The goal of IUI is to increase the number of sperm that reach the fallopian tubes and subsequently increase the chance of fertilization
3D scans show still pictures of your baby in three dimensions. 4D scans show moving 3D images of your baby, with time being the fourth dimension. It's natural to be really excited by the prospect of your first scan. But some mums find the standard 2D scans disappointing when all they see is a grey, blurry outline.
This dermatology video shows the extraction of a large facial pimple in a clinical setting. The recording documents how the lesion is opened and cleared. Pimples develop when a pore becomes blocked with oil and dead skin cells. Large inflamed spots are best treated professionally to reduce the risk of scarring.
Spermicide is a birth control method that contains chemicals that stop sperm from moving. Spermicides are available in different forms, including creams, film, foams, gels, and suppositories. Spermicide can be used alone, or it can be used with other birth control methods to make them more effective. It is always used with the diaphragm and cervical cap.
Tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, removes excess fat and skin and, in most cases, restores weakened or separated muscles creating an abdominal profile that is smoother and firmer. A flat and well-toned abdomen is something many of us strive for through exercise and weight control. Sometimes these methods cannot achieve our goals. Even individuals of otherwise normal body weight and proportion can develop an abdomen that protrudes or is loose and sagging. The most common causes of this include: Aging Heredity Pregnancy Prior surgery Significant fluctuations in weight What tummy tuck surgery can't do A tummy tuck is not a substitute for weight loss or an appropriate exercise program. Although the results of a tummy tuck are technically permanent, the positive outcome can be greatly diminished by significant fluctuations in your weight. For this reason, individuals who are planning substantial weight loss or women who may be considering future pregnancies would be advised to postpone a tummy tuck. A tummy tuck cannot correct stretch marks, although these may be removed or somewhat improved if they are located on the areas of excess skin that will be excised.
From a dermatology centre, this long demonstration shows foam sclerotherapy for leg veins. The clinician narrates while injecting successive veins, comparing foam and liquid sclerosant, watching the needle tip, and explaining which vessel sizes suit each. It is a detailed procedural record for education in vein treatment.
Plantar warts are hard, grainy growths that usually appear on the heels or balls of your feet, areas that feel the most pressure. This pressure also may cause plantar warts to grow inward beneath a hard, thick layer of skin (callus). Plantar warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). The virus enters your body through tiny cuts, breaks or other weak spots on the bottom of your feet. Most plantar warts aren't a serious health concern and may not require treatment. But plantar warts can cause discomfort or pain. If self-care treatments for plantar warts don't work, you may want to see your doctor to have them removed.
This skills video demonstrates the simple interrupted suture, described in the narration as the simplest suturing technique for bringing wound edges together. It shows the needle passing perpendicularly through each side at the same depth before the ends are tied over the incision. The opening exchange is in Tagalog; the technique narration is in English.
Working slice by slice, this lecture reviews a CT scan of the abdomen. The narrator names organs and vessels at each level and highlights an incidental large clot in the superior mesenteric vein, before coronal reconstructions close the study. It is an anatomy-focused teaching resource in Radiology.
This animation demonstrates endotracheal intubation, the procedure in which a breathing tube is passed into the trachea to secure a patient's airway. Animated demonstrations of this kind are used to teach the sequence of steps before hands-on clinical practice. Airway management is a core skill in anaesthesia and emergency medicine.
