The Neurosurgery Operating Theatre - Take a look inside!

Have you ever wanted to step inside a high-tech neurosurgery operating theatre? Take a guided tour of the Neurosurgery Operating Theatre at The Royal London Hospital with the Brain Surgeon's Vlog.
-----
The main things you're going to see are the Carl Zeiss operating microscope, operating table and the brutal Mayfield Clamp, anaesthetic room and machine. There are so many more things to see but we don't want the videos to run for too long!
-----
Next week we're going to show you what its like to have a CT scan done and how it works at The Royal London Hospital.

    The quality and production of these videos are fantastic, worthy of a channel of thousands of subs! Would love some slightly longer videos 8/10 mins? Also, would be interested in videos going over surgical instruments, common pathologies and operations and detailed looks at certain anatomy? An interview or Q&A with an anaesthetist would be awesome too!

    @Brainbook - I had a large tumour removed in 97, another surgery Jan 2019 believed to be a CPP in the 4th ventricle in the region of the obex. Surgery was aborted, I was told the fiducials didn't align with the computer system, they were close but didn't want to risk it. I know there was an issue with StealthStation i7 & S7's software, the information states this was only for the needle depth gauge, do you know that if that could also give inaccurate readings when attempting to remove a 2 cm tumour?

    The majority of us will stand all the time no matter how long the procedure. There are a lot of operation that aren't really possible sitting down. Some brain tumour surgeons will have a large chair that is sterile. I see this a lot more in North American centres bit some of our surgeons use it too. Even then the first assistant will still be standing.

    @@Brainbook Where I've been we just had small roll chairs, not sure the English words, but like computer chairs with no back support. They seemed to be usable for any cranial surgery but I can see how it's a problem with back surgery. I'm smitten by neurosurgery and with all of my research and CV oriented towards neurosurgery I'm hoping for residency when I finish school soon but I have a problem in which my feet just tire abnormally quick so sort of a handicap for standing still for long periods. I'm hoping I can somehow switch between sitting and standing as much as possible. I know it's a silly choice of residency with such a handicap but I'm completely in love with neurosurgery and I just really want to make it work.

    2 years ago I had to have a craniocervical decompression for a particularly nasty case of CM type I malformation. Different country, different hospital, but I had my surgery in the in the OR 11. Maybe 11 is a common number for neuro OR's? :D I guess, Carl Zeiss are the best neurosurgical microscopes? The hospital I went to, also have Carl Zeiss in their neuro theatre. Those small wounds from the Mayfield clamp really bothered me for a few first days-you would think they are so minor that on the background of the rest of it you wouldn't even think of them, but hell, no, they're there. You can feel them just as you can feel your incision 😅😅😅

    @@Brainbook You mean, the operation'? ;) At first my everyone thought it did, for 9 months post-op I was symptom free. Then my symptoms came back, sadly this time I started having seizures with headaches. I never had that before my surgery. My neurosurgeon was really puzzled, my neurologist as well. The surgery fixed the CSF blockage I had previously, that should have been it. Following the return of my symptoms I spent next to two months in the hospital, doctors managed to get my symptoms under control with medication. During my time in hospital I underwent, I believe, every diagnostic test there is, it's not really clear to anyone what's going on with me. So-I'm still working with my doctors. There are some interesting theories. Since the medication I'm on, allows me to live a relatively normal life, I don't mind not rushing things, but I'd be so much happier if the cause of my health problems was treatable not only managable.
