I would absolutely LOVE to see an entire operation from start to finish, even the gory parts, not because people may think I'm sick in the head lol, but because I love learning a few things about medicine, I'm pretty certain if I had a better brain, a far better family, with no severe arthritis I would definitely be in the medical field.

I’m so very grateful to orthopedic surgeons for all they’ve done for me, I’ve had 5 spinal surgeries 4 in the lumbar sacral area ( 2 fusions in that area). And on my cervical spine ( neck fused c-3 -c6 ) had two vertebrae removed and 3 discs removed, it saved me from being paralyzed from the chest down. Most likely will have to have more surgery in the thoracic part of my spine. The longest surgery was over 11 hours. I’m most thankful there are people like you that have dedicated their lives to help us.

Awesome video Dr. Webb! It is really neat to see what it is like behind the scenes in the operating room. Thanks for sharing! 👍
Very interesting video! How many levels were corrected during this surgery? I’ve had 10 spine surgeries. The first fusion L-3, L-4, L-5, S-1, failed. It took many years to find a surgeon willing to accept me as a patient. By the time I did find a surgeon, I developed adult onset scoliosis!!! My pain is now fairly under control but I have the same bent over situation as this patient. I’ve been wondering if I should/could get this corrected.
It's Amazing there are people out there who can do this. All the education, the dedication plus being this smart to be able to complete all that school. I can't imagine the stress involved to get to this point and it never ends.
More videos with surgery’s like this please! That was pretty damn awesome 😎 Thank you for all you do Dr. Webb
That's why you guys as very much appreciated god bless you and everything you do for your community

I had an anterial cervical decompression fusion done at C3/4 2012 and an anterial lumbar interbody fusion on L4/5 2016, my the neck was a walk on the park compared to the lumbar because of going thru the front, I was so sore for a good 6 weeks after my lumbar but neck I walked in Friday and walked out Sunday, couldn't drive but they had to re align my neck it was so screwed up, I have no nerve pain now but I do have weakness and drop a lot of things if I don't concentrate, that's just from years of compression... I have more surgeries to go in the years to come due to the discs degenerating but I'm not worried and am prepared because I know what I'm going into. I appreciate every surgeon in their field and thank Christ that we have them for these delicate surgeries. Thank you from NSW Australia for what you & all surgeons do, it isn't easy but you still do it. 🙏👌

This video was published on my 10 year spinal fusion anniversary. I had a spinal fusion to correct my scoliosis from t1-t12 in 2009. I love watching your videos from both a personal and professional perspective. I have only seen a c-arm used in spine cases never even heard of an o-arm in surgical tech school. I hope one day I get to see a mazor x used in person!

The Pearl Harbor attack actually contributed to advances in spine surgery / fusion. So many people injured their backs in the attack or during the clean-up, salvage and repair activities, that an Orthopedic Surgeon, Dr Cloward, developed procedures and also developed many special instruments just for improving spine surgery--i.e., the "Cloward Saddle" etc. Google Dr Cloward and check out his company's web page.

A lot of really atrocious experiments were performed on live humans during World War Two, and even after on prisoners of war, as well as a lot of awful experiments/research done on people of colour as they had minimal, if any rights to consent to or object back in the day. These experiments contributed majorly to our understanding of the human body and physiology but was obviously inhumane and awful and it is why we have such strict laws now regarding clinical trials, mammal trials ect.
