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 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).

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 m tn The quality of care is virtually the same. The surgical staff is essentially the same, yet different prices. He also mentioned pharmaceutical prices as well. They vary, and he urged listeners to bring their own OTC meds when applicable. Now see, I see all of this a concern regarding "Obamacare". I don't know how the program addresses any of these issues. And since we are going to be dealing with insurance providers, I think we are going to be dealing with more BS.
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 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.
Avatar f tn It was then removed surgically He has not yet been told whether he is to have further chemo sessions. The consultants say they will know in about 2 weeks from operation date. Is this a 'bad sign'; would they not know the extent of the cancer from initial tests that were done, or at least from the time of the operation itself? We are very concerned for him and would be grate for your opinion.
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 n tn Also, what is the likelyhood of complications? We are very concerned that if he proceeds with such an invasive surgery that his post surgical quality of life could be diminished. We are uncertain if our concerns are valid. Any information you could provide us with would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Avatar n tn The doctor advised me to to apply Butadin socked in surgical cotton at the operated spot for 2 weeks. Even after doing this, I get leakage everyday and do not know what to do. The leakage consists of thick mucus and some particles.The doc says that it will continue for 2-3 weeks since operation. But now even after 3 weeks the flow is still there and my underwear and pants get wet. I would like to have second opinion if this happens post operation and what I should do?
Avatar f tn Surgical repair for torn meniscus of L' Knee. 3 months post-op it buckled, caused tear during fall to R' Knee and meniscus was surgically repaired but has also failed, although the surgeon refuses to order an MRI to "prove" this latest injury. Pain is an issue as I am allergic to all pain meds ordered to date and take nothing for the pain levels of 9-10.

4656347 tn?1357634219 On 21 Nov 2012 he again undergone major operation to remove the tumour and I was told 70% of the tumour being removed mainly the liquid part.

Avatar n tn I pay of course, my portion to the insurance company to see the psychiatrist-20% is my portion. Haven't seen that bill yet. My script is $50 for 90-2 mg pills. A one month supply. I've seen CRAZY rates on this forum. Like $500 the first time they meet and $150 each visit thereafter. Insane.
