Surgical removal of a large fibroadenoma — a benign breast lump — under local anesthesia is documented in this surgery video. Fibroadenomas are common, non-cancerous growths, and excision is a short outpatient operation. Presented for surgical education. Educational only — not medical advice.
Eight common types of vaginal discharge are walked through in this educational video — what each one looks like, what it can indicate, and which changes deserve a medical visit. It connects discharge patterns to the menstrual cycle and common infections. Educational only — not medical advice.
You may have heard that some positions, such as your partner on top (missionary position), are better than others for getting pregnant. In fact, there's no evidence to back these theories up. Experts just haven't done the research yet. What experts have done, though, is use scanning to show what's going on inside when you're doing the deed. The research looked at two positions: the missionary position and doggy style. (Doggy style being when you're on all fours, and your partner enters you from behind). Common sense tells us that these positions allow for deep penetration. This means that they're more likely to place sperm right next to your cervix (the opening of your uterus). The scans confirm that the tip of the penis reaches the areas between the cervix and vaginal walls in both of these positions. The missionary position allows the penis to reach the area at the front of the cervix. The rear entry position reaches the area at back of the cervix. It's amazing what some experts spend their time doing, isn't it! Other positions, such as standing up, or woman on top, may be just as good for getting sperm right next to the cervix. We just don't know yet. http://www.babycentre.co.uk/sex-for-getting-pregnant#ixzz4XKnPLbxL
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.
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.
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.
Cervical cerclage can be placed via transvaginal, open transabdominal, or laparoscopic transabdominal approach, preferably before pregnancy. Recurrent late miscarriages may be due to a weak (sometimes called an incompetent) cervix that shortens or opens too early in pregnancy. Cervical cerclage involves placing a stitch around the upper part of the cervix to keep it closed; the operation may be carried out through the vagina, or through the abdomen, as an open or laparoscopic ('keyhole') procedure.
Transgender Man Gives Birth to Healthy Baby, Talks Navigating Pregnancy as a Man Trystan Reese is a transgender man who just gave birth to a healthy baby boy. He told us about his pregnancy—and why his story isn't so out of the ordinary.
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.
TransMedics’ proprietary Organ Care System (OCS) is the first commercial and portable warm blood perfusion organ transport system. With the OCS, doctors are able to perform “living organ transplants,” where organs are kept warm and functioning in a controlled environment from the time they are recovered to the moment they are placed in the recipient’s body.
A teaching case shows an endotracheal tube placed in the esophagus during surgery and recognized at once. The narration explains why the tube is left in place temporarily until the airway is secured. It is used for education in anesthesia and airway management. The case is presented as it unfolded in the operating room.
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.
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. The material is intended for clinical skills training in hand and soft tissue care.
