Breakthroughs in the field of microsurgery
Human medicine has made remarkable progress in preventing and treating many incurable diseases. In a series of revolutionary breakthroughs, there were seemingly impossible interventions that existed, but actually happened to save the lives of patients .
Cut out half of the brain
Believe it or not, this procedure has also happened, including taking part or all of the brain. This is the last resort used to treat disorders caused by seizures or epilepsy caused by wide-ranging problems of half the hemisphere; Especially when not effective with pharmaceutical solutions.
For the first time this trick was applied in 1923 by Dr. Walter Dandy on him; and the patient had to be partially or completely paralyzed on one side of the body in contrast to the part of the brain removed. In some cases, the remaining part of the brain still functions well for the lost part of the brain by connecting new nerves .
Cut off half a person
Also known as translumbar amputation, a surgical procedure that removes all the lower half of the body from the pelvis; This means that organs such as the genitals, anus, rectum, pelvis, 2 legs and the urinary system will all be lost. Although very rare, this abortion solution is still indicated when the lower part of the patient's body has certain dangerous diseases, such as osteomyelitis, malignant tumors, serious injury causing damage. The letter often suffers from some serious disease in the pelvic area. Surgery is usually done in two stages, and can be done once when the bowel secretion function is replaced by a prosthesis and ileal conduit before total amputation. .
Pain relief surgery
This procedure is used to treat severe cases of cancer, including the control of nerves from the brain, paralysis of the brain belt rolls - the part of the brain that connects to the nervous area works in front lobe. Sometimes also used as a treatment for mental disorders - although controversial. With psychiatric treatment, patients must accept a solution to replace the entire brain lobe. However, this last solution is only supported for pain relief for severe cancers, but is not indicated for depression .
Remote surgery
This procedure is of special interest to modern medicine, when a completely robotic operation is performed by doctors who can remotely control it via a telecommunications connection. The first surgery took place on September 7, 2001 at Strasbourg Civil Hospital, in the east of France, led by Prof. Jacques Marescaux and his team at the Gastrointestinal Cancer Research Institute (IRCAD). . This is also the first time in the history of human medicine, a technical solution has been proven to overcome inherent delays in time and space. From New York, experts controlled the arm of the surgical robot ZEUSTM Robotic Surgical System, manufactured by Computer Motoion, to slit the incision on patients. Successful surgery has the combined help of high-speed optical glass service from France Telecom Telecommunications Group .
