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).
My surgeon has suggested laprascopic colon removal with small intestine reconnected to rectum because some of the polyps were/are pre cancerous. Is this a serious/difficult operation and how will it affect my daily habits and life style?

A heart surgeon at Mayo Clinic states the biggest problem he sees is that a patient waits too long before surgical intervention. The consensus is the operation should be done at a time appropriate to preserve left ventricle functionality...EF of 55 to 75%. A loss of LV EF cannot be regained with an operation.

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?
this will be up to her primary care physician as well as the anesthesiologist and the surgeon. I can say, though, that good cardiac surgical centers frequently perform cardiac surgery in patients much older than 60. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with India to be able to tell you the location of a good cardiac surgical center in Hyderabad.
I had my first surgical consultation with a relatively “famous” surgeon in NYC who confidently recommended laminectomies at all 5 levels by microscope to decompress my spine. He said I’m not a candidate for a cage and fusion due to X-rays showing my spine to be very stable and the condition to be slow and chronic. I have several friend chiropractors who thought that was a crazy plan given how unstable my spine would become after 5 consecutive laminectomies at once.
I recently hurt my should on the job, August 31, 2009. I saw an Orthopedic Surgeon and he told me I had cartilage damage that needed to be repaired surgically.

I have full range of motion in my shoulder, and 20 degrees past in a couple of movements.

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. Before injury both knees were healthy, minimal arthritic changes on MRI's in spite of age 58 and obesity.
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. I have to do this operation within 8 weeks of the injury occurring or he said it isn't possible and I would have to have a different operation. I have been trying to research this style of operation but I can only find the option where it talks about using a graft from other body parts.
No-one will acknowledge this was a mistake even though the surgeon said they would dissolve. After obtaining my surgery report I confirmed they are indeed non dissolvable ...I need them removed but can't find anyone who is willing to get involved:( any advice??? I have in addition to this been dealing with gallbladder symptoms for almost a year. Recently these problems are becoming unbearable.

Sometimes a surgeon doesn't want to risk an operation when the EF is below 50%. Below 29% is considered heart failure phase and almost never does a surgeon want to risk major surgery unless it is a critical situation.
Five years ago I was hospitalized with congested heart failure with an EF of 13% to 29%. I had a 98% occluded RCA and it was stented; circumflex 72% occluded no stent and an LAD 100% blocked. The LAD had developed other vessels to supply the deficit area.
E at our local hospital where a variety of doctors examined her, one said it was an absess and she would be sent home with antibiotics another said it was a herna and she was admitted about 5 hours later for an operation for a herna.
They later that night stated it wasnt a herna and the thought again it was an absess resulting in swollen lymph node they were convinced it didnt need surgical attention but they began her on IV antibiotics they took bloods also.
I intend to ask (and specify on my consent form) that my primary surgeon be the primary surgeon throughout the operation -- i.e. operating rather than supervising others operating -- and I intend to ask that anyone assisting with "significant surgical tasks" have significant prior experience in the procedure (i.e. no newbies). I know my attitude's ironic, but -- anyway: do you see these as achievable and reasonable requests? Thanks.
