Quote from: KiloKAHN on December 08, 2013, 09:55:08 PMHere are videos of Dr. Parihar doing voice over commentary on a surgery he performed where he uses LON for a case of tibial hemimelia. You get to see what this sort of operation looks like while the patient is under anesthesia.

*Not for the squeamish.
 




Is precise 2 as barbaric? Any videos of the procedure with precise 2?

A bit off topic, but yes. Whichever method you choose, it's quite grisly. The difference being that externals look the part for much longer.

Thank you Android you are always very helpful.

It is what it is I guess. Anyone who can go through this is a brave warrior and there is nothing that can be said otherwise.

The surgeries are grisly, but you won't be watching and feeling it from third person.

Someone here once said his peak CLL pain level was the highest he ever felt in his life, and he mentioned he had gotten hit by a car before.

5:10 in the 1st Parlihar video is fking horrifying. But I know this is irrelevant to the post so my apologies.

I had a little glimpse while on spinal epidural when the team were removing my nail and yes it looks just as barbaric. The hammering sound and the surgeon physically pulling the nail out with the legs all over the place, blood everywhere. I would imagine the nail insertion to be even more worse with the reaming, releases and breaking of the bone.

Yeah I was under general anaesthesia for my nail insertion surgery. But then I insisted on getting spinal epidural for the removal since I wanted to be aware of whats going on throughout the surgery and to make sure that it's my femurs that got operated on lol. I kept on raising my back to have a glimpse of whats going on and the anaesthetist would routinely tell me to lay back down.

Jeeze. It's definitely a life experience. I guess it doesn't matter how extreme it is as long as we're asleep it makes no difference that's how I see it. The mental trauma and nervousness leading up to being given anesthesia is probably going to be the worst part.

nail removal is usually more violent because the nail gets stuck in the bone cavity. you have to hammer it out. nail insertion involves reaming which ensures smoother passage. the osteotomy is definitely scary though.
