Avatar m tn Every surgical operation has its risks depending on your age or if you have other comorbid conditions (hypertension, diabetes, stroke, etc). Complications include difficulty of breathing, heart problems, kidney problems during or after the operation, though these can be minimized with proper pre-operation evaluation (usually by an internist, or cardiologist).
Avatar n tn I went into breast augmentation surgery with one breast smaller than the other (pretty normal, I know). I was a small 34A and am 5'2 and 100 pounds. My surgeon chose 350 cc Mentor Moderate Plus gel implants for both sides and I did not question this, foolishly, prior to surgery as I figured he knew what he was doing. Now 10 days post-op my left breast is noticeably smaller than the right, just as before surgery.
Avatar n tn re not in the position right now to afford an operation for her. The vet said that even if she had the operation the other leg would probably go because of her weight. The problem I am facing is, it's very hard to exercise her when she is overweight. I'm trying to find a place where I can take her swimming. Does anyone have any other options? Is there any vitamin out there that increases the metabolism?
418466 tn?1207114132 Do NOT attempt to remove this drain by yourself. I can understand another vet wanting the surgical report, but it shouldn't stop them from treating your dog. That doesn't sound right to me at all. If you're having problems finding a competent vet, you could try starting with your local SPCA or Humane Society. Explain the situation to them and I'm sure they'll come up with a vet who will happily get this thing safely out of your dog's ear.
Avatar f tn But one has to bear in mind that surgery for intermittent exotropia does nort provide relief of symptoms in all cases. There is a significant relapse rate of diplopia. Different surgical techniques have been proposed, and this in itself is a testimony that no technique to date has been found to be universally effective.
520691 tn?1213961844 I had a pilonidal sinus operated on in April this year, it's never healed and i've been told i have to have another operation. I'm very concerned because the area is swollen, i have been told that i could have more than one sinus. is there any way possible that i can prevent this happening whilst the sinus wound is still open? also, it was not caused by an ingrowing hair, there has been no explanation for it.
Avatar f tn Hello, any help would be massively appreciated as I feel I have a big decision to make. I have a lesion in my ACL ligament. I am living in a foreign country so sometimes communication isn't the best. The orthopedic surgeon has said that he thinks he can save my ACL ligament via an operation without the use of a graft. He said by doing this type of operation it will be much better in terms of healing ect.
Avatar f tn If I had in any way know that they could end up laving clips in me I would have not had this operation .. I was in way less pain before the operation ...
Avatar f tn Unfortunately my sight has been very hazy since the surgery and today I was told the reason for this is, the remains of my natural lens has detached and has moved position and is now blocking my view. (I can see what looks like cotton wool in my pupil when I look in the mirror) My surgeon is going to perform a second operation tomorrow to remove the piece of lens and flush out the eye. I was just wondering if anyone knew about recovery times.
Avatar n tn Repair of a displaced and fractured cheekbone is a well established surgical procedure. The exact procedure will depend on the finding on X-ray and at the time of surgery. Your brother need to seek the help of a surgeon qualified to repair facial fractures. If too long an interval occurs (over three to four weeks), the bones will heal in an abnormal position and repair then becomes much more difficult.
Avatar m tn If the baby has a large VSD AND an abnormality of the aortic arch (called a coarctation), then the doctor you spoke with is correct. Surgery will likely be necessary to deal with both. The aortic arch narrowing can be significant early after birth and require intervention. If the VSD remains large during the first 3-6 months of life, then surgery is usually recommended as well.
Avatar m tn 3)Patient will be prepared for operation and operation will be performed. 4)After operation patient will be looked after sincerely, specially in ICU (Intensive Care Unit) for 2 days. 5)After 2 days of sincere care in the ICU, patient will be transferred to Inpatient Service for 4 days. Within these days, there will be Dr. Visits everyday for control following-up the patient.
888538 tn?1241031342 Both the stereotatic/ needle aspiration and the surgical/ incision approaches are quite different. The surgical biopsy is far more invasive as it is performed by a surgeon; occurs in a surgical facility; the patient is fully sedated (you'll need someone to drive); the incision takes longer to heal, has a greater chance for infection and leaves a more noticeable scar (mine is a faint, fine line 1.5" scar).

Avatar m tn However, grade 4, 5 and 6 dislocations need surgical reduction to place the joint in the original position. Post surgery also you will need physiotherapy. Please consult an orthopedic specialist as soon as possible. Take care! The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history.
1060769 tn?1254977492 Postponing the operation as long as reasonably possible is a good thing. You avoid unnecessary surgical risks by doing that. A few people actually die during heart surgery. It's not like having your tonsils out. It's a lot more major than that. It's not something to jump into, just to "get it over with." Also, if you can postpone your operation, you may be able to take advantage of advanced surgical technology later on.
Avatar f tn Hi and welcome. These can be a life long problem as once you get them the tissues have been damaged. Ive had them all my life and short of surgery its a matter of getting used to them and avoiding things that can make them flair up. Try not to eat foods that cause gas or that can constipate you. The new one you have should subside in about 4 days with the creams. If its balloned it has blood trapped in the tissue and untill the blood leaves it will cause pain. The blood pressure is the problem.
Avatar n tn If the percentage is less than 29%, a surgical operation is at a high risk and a surgeon may not recommend an operation as the risk may exceed the benefit. Or the estimated dimensions of the heart may be insignificant, and your mom is relatively good health and the risk is minimal.

Avatar f tn I just joined this group and hope to find some ASICS as I’m looking at surgical options for my difficult situation. I’m 52 with diagnosed (MRI 8/22) severe lumbar spinal stenosis at all 5 levels with significant central herniations. My symptoms have been on and off for 10 years now. In the past epidural injections, acupuncture and some lifestyle changes have managed my condition until 6 months ago where I’ve been dealing with various symptoms associated with different lumbar levels.
Avatar f tn Therefore, surgical intervention is essential to remove the large cyst and if permanent damage needs to be avoided. Craniotomy, needle aspiration and cerebral shunts are common surgical treatment that may help. But, surgical modalities may have some complications depending upon size of cyst. Before opting for surgical procedures, you should evaluate both the pros and cons with the help of a neurosurgeon. Hope this helps.
Avatar m tn Bow legs or genu varum can be corrected in adults by surgical remodeling. The exact type of surgical technique would depend on the severity and the exact location of the defect. Temporarily orthotic devices may be used to provide symptomatic relief, though a permanent cure may require a surgery in adults. It would be best to consult an orthopedician for a detailed review and appropriate management.
