PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Left inguinal hernia.
POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Large left inguinal hernia, direct.
PROCEDURE: Repair of large direct left inguinal hernia with Prolene Hernia System Mesh (PHS) and
resection of lipoma of the cord.
FINDINGS: Large direct left inguinal hernia and large lipoma of the cord.
DESCRIPTION OF PROCEDURE: After routine preparation, the patient was prepped and draped under
general anesthesia in supine position. The bladder was decompressed with a Foley catheter. An incision
was made in the left groin parallel to the left inguinal ligament after the skin had been infiltrated with
0.5% plain Marcaine. Subcu was incised. Superficial epigastric vessels were identified, clamped,
transected and ligated with 2-0 Vicryl. Scarpa's was incised. The external oblique aponeurosis was
identified and incised. The incision was carried down to the external ring superior to the internal ring.
The ilioinguinal nerve was identified, freed from the surrounding tissues and retracted medially. The cord
structures were encircled with a Penrose drain. A large lipoma of the lumbar cord was dissected off all
the way to the base, clamped, transected and ligated with 2-0 Vicryl. The cremasteric muscles were
transected at the anteromedial aspect of the cord structures. A hernia sac was identified, which was a
small indirect hernia. The sac was dissected all the way to the level of the preperitoneal fat. The contents
were mobilized. Then, there was a large bulge in the direct space, almost occupying the entire direct
space. It was dissected from the surrounding tissues. Deep epigastric vessels were identified. The fascia
was transected. Deep epigastric vessels were skeletonized and retracted cephalad anteriorly. The transversalis was transected circumferentially. The direct space was bluntly dissected until completely
dissecting the direct and indirect space. A Prolene Hernia System mesh was placed. The innerlay was
unfolded inferiorly, superiorly, medially and laterally. The transversalis was closed over it with 2-0 Vicryl.
The overlay was unfolded and sutured to the pubic tubercle inferiorly, cut at the 1 o'clock location,
wrapped around the cord structures and placed over the internal oblique muscle. The wound was
irrigated. Cord structures were placed in the usual anatomic location. The external oblique aponeurosis
was closed with 3-0 Vicryl. Again, the gallbladder was also placed in the usual anatomic location. The
external oblique aponeurosis was closed with 3-0 Vicryl. Subcu was closed with interrupted 4-0
Monocryl. Each layer was infiltrated with 0.5% plain Marcaine. The skin was closed with subcuticular 4- o
Monocryl. Dermabond was applied. The patient tolerated the procedure well under general anesthesia
and left the operating room to Recovery in good condition.

21. Case study:
PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Large right subdural hematoma.
POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Large right subdural hematoma.
PROCEDURE PERFORMED: Right craniotomy with evacuation of subdural hematoma.
HISTORY: This 58-year-old patient was transferred from an outside hospital after she was found
unresponsive. She was on Coumadin, and she was found to have a large right-sided subdural hematoma
with significant midline shift. On exam, she is noted to have, anisocoria and large right pupil,
decerebrating, to pain. The patient had received FFP as well as factor VII and emergently rushed to the
operating room.
PROCEDURE: The patient was brought into the general operating theater. Following the induction of
general anesthesia, the patient was supine. The scalp was clipped, prepped and draped. We made a
hairline incision frontal temporal parietal, reflecting it and incised down through the temporalis muscle.
Fascia reflected with the skin flap. Bone flap was elevated without dural violation, tacked up to the bone
edges with 4-0 Nurolon. As the dura was tacked up, the dura was opened. We encountered a very large
subdural membrane. We circumferentially evacuated it. We did find a cortical arterial bleeder. Once it
started bleeding, we removed the clot. This was coagulated, and the bleeding was stopped. We
copiously irrigated, circumferentially inspecting the edges to make sure there was no venous bleeding.
All seemed dry. We next reapproximated the dura. We did place a red rubber catheter in the subdural
space. The dura was approximated with 4-0 Nurolon. Bone was placed back in place. Temporalis muscle
and fascia were approximated with 2-0 Vicryl, the galea with inverted interrupted 2-0 Vicryl and the skin
with staples.
Following this procedure, all instrument, sponge, needle and padding counts were correct.

Title of Operation: Pterygium removal with conjunctival graft.
Procedure in Detail: Local anesthesia was achieved with a 50/50 mixture of 2% Xylocaine and 0.75%
Marcaine with Wydase. The right eye was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. The lashes
were isolated on Steri-Strips and the lids separated with the wire speculum. The pterygium was marked
with a marking pen and subconjunctival injection of 1% lidocaine with epinephrine was injected
underneath the pterygium. The pterygium was then resected from the conjunctiva and the body of the
pterygium was resected with sharp dissection with Westcott scissors. The head of the pterygium was
dissected off the cornea with Martinez corneal dissector. The cornea was then smoothed with an
ototome bur. Hemostasis was achieved with bipolar cautery.
A conjunctival graft measuring 10 x 8 mm was harvested from the superior bulbar conjunctiva by
marking the area, injecting it with subconjunctival 1% lidocaine with epinephrine. This was dissected
with Westcott scissors and sutured in place with multiple interrupted 9-0 Dexon sutures. Subconjunctival
Decadron and gentamicin injections were given. A bandage contact lens was placed on the eye. Maxitrol
ointment was placed on the eye. A patch was placed on the eye. The patient tolerated the procedure
well and was taken to the recovery room in good condition.

24. Case study:
Procedure: Laparoscopic gastric band.
ANESTHESIA: General
History : Morbid obesity, body mass index (BMI) of 42.
Description: The patient was placed in the supine position on the operating table and sterilely draped.
Abdomen was prepped with Betadine and a trocar was applied to the left abdomen on the right side.
15mHg carbon dioxide was used for insufflation. Additional ports were placed under visualization.
The liver was raised and peritoneum divided using electrocautery. A small window was formed in the
peritoneum at the left and right crus of the diaphragm, and a grasping instrument was placed via the
right lateral port site into the window and advanced to the peritoneum. After this the band was dropped
into the abdomen and brought through and properly closed. Upon examination it was determined that
there was adequate space between the stomach and the band and it was secured and sutured to the
stomach above the band. This was accomplished via fundoplication, which commenced at the angle of
His and to within 2.5 cm of the band buckle. Band tubing was removed sing the left upper abdominal
site of the trocar. At this time all of the trocars were removed from the abdomen and the liver retractor
was removed. Hemostasis was evaluated and found to be adequate. The band tubing was clipped to
measure 15 cm from the edge of the kin and secured to the port, with the port held to the rectus fascia on the left using 5 Ethibond 2-0 interrupted sutures and putting the excess band tubing into the
abdomen. The skin edges were secured with 4-0 sutures and sterile dressing.
The patient was taken to the recovery room in stable condition.

25. Case study:
Preoperative Diagnosis: Extensive ductal carcinoma in situ, left breast.
Postoperative Diagnosis: Extensive ductal carcinoma in situ, left breast.
Procedure: Sentinel lymph node mapping, injection, and 4 biopsies.
Left simple mastectomy.
Anesthesia: General endotracheal.
DESCRIPTION OF PROCEDURE: The patient was transferred to the operating room and in the supine
position. After general endotracheal anesthesia was administered, the left breast, chest wall, axilla, and
arm were prepped and draped en bloc and draped. The previous marking of the sentinel lymph nodes
was identified. A needle probe was used and transcutaneous readings of the sentinel lymph node area
were taken and recorded. Isosulfan blue was injected into the periareolar region and massaged.
Using a 10-blade scalpel, a transverse mastectomy incision was made in the breast around the nippleareolar complex. Flaps were raised superiorly to the clavicle, medially to the sternum, inferiorly to the
rectus sheath, and laterally to the latissimus dorsi border. Retraction was placed on the skin flaps in a
cephalad direction and readings in the axilla were obtained.
Three hot sentinel lymph nodes in the left axilla were traced using the needle probe, each had readings
recorded in vivo and ex vivo. Within the field there was a fourth lymph node which was at least 2.0 cm in
size, and this was biopsied just on the basis of size and lymphadenopathy. It was not radioactively hot.
The 4 samples were labeled and sent to pathology and frozen section proved them to be benign.
The simple mastectomy was performed next, with the breast taken off the chest wall in a medial to
lateral fashion. This was sent to pathology.
Irrigation was performed and hemostasis was accomplished with cautery. Two 10-mm Jackson-Pratt
drains were placed into the superior skin flap and into the left axilla and the wound was closed in 2
layers with 3-0 Vicryl suture and 4-0 Vicryl suture with Steri-Strips. The drains were sutured to the chest
wall. The patient was awakened and taken to the recovery room in stable condition.

26. Case study: OPERATIVE REPORT
PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Equinus contractures secondary to spastic diplegia, bilateral
POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Equinus contractures secondary to spastic diplegia, bilateral
PROCEDURE: Bilateral percutaneous Achilles tendon lengthening.
ANESTHESIA: General via laryngeal mask.
DESCRIPTION OF PROCEDURE: The patient was placed on the operating room table, in a supine position
and after adequate induction of general laryngeal mask anesthesia, both lower extremities were
prepped and draped in the usual sterile orthopedic fashion. Pneumatic tourniquets were placed
bilaterally about the upper thighs. First to the left lower extremity was addressed, where the leg was
exsanguinated with an elastic Martin bandage, and a pneumatic tourniquet elevated to 200 mmHg.
With the foot placed in neutral dorsiflexion of 90 degrees to his leg, a percutaneous stab incision was
made at the distal end of the Achilles tendon along the medial side. The 15 blade knife was then used to
cut the medial half of the tendon through the stab incision. A second stab incision was made on the
medial side at the proximal pole of the tendon, approximately 7 to 8 cm proximal to the distal stab
wound. Using a 15 blade,the tendon was cut through half its width through the stab incision. A third
lateral incision was then made percutaneously midway between the proximal and distal incisions, and
the lateral half of the tendon was cut through the stab wound incision. The foot could then be
dorsiflexed 20 degrees above neutral with the knee extended. The wounds were then dressed with
Mastisol and Steri-Strips followed by Xeroform, dry sterile dressing, and sterile Webril. The tourniquet
was released with a total tourniquet time of 5 minutes.
Next the right leg was addressed, and an identical procedure was performed using three stab incisions
cut distal and proximal along the medial half of the tendon with a lateral stab incision made midway
between the two medial stab incisions. The lateral half of the tendon was cut. This foot was dorsiflexed
20 degrees with the knee extended and the wounds were dressed as on the other site. The tourniquet
was also released with a time of 4 minutes.
Short leg casts were then placed with the feet in neutral position to the right and left side. Sponge,
needle, and instrument counts were correct. The patient tolerated the procedure well and returned to
the PACU in satisfactory condition.
