CHEST INJURY- BLUNT- Trauma Surgery



CHEST INJURY- BLUNT/ Trauma Surgery


Dear viewers,
           Greetings from “Surgical Educator”
           Today I have uploaded a video on CHEST INJURY- BLUNT- an important topic in trauma.  Even the blunt chest trauma can turn into penetrating one because of jagged edges of the broken ribs. I haven’t talked elaborately but have included the essential minimum an undergraduate medical student should know. I have talked about pathophysiology, clinical approach, symptoms, signs, investigations, different individual types of Chest injuries and management of all the varieties of Chest injuries. My aim is, after watching this video all of you should be able to arrive at a correct working diagnosis of the type of chest injury and should also be able to institute immediate lifesaving treatment to the patients if there is a need.

ZENKER’S DIVERTICULUM & ACHALASIA CARDIA- Image Based Questions- Upper GI Tract


Dear Viewers,
Greetings from “Surgical Educator”
Today I am uploading two videos based on Image Based Questions. These are not didactic lectures but are useful as self-assessment and learning. Based on a clinical image, few questions will be asked and I will be discussing the answers to these questions. This will help as quick-fire nuggets of surgical wisdom or titbits. In these videos, based on the images, I have discussed the answers for Zenker’s Diverticulum and Achalasia Cardia. These image based questions will be useful for your OSCE exam or the NEET exam. Hope you will enjoy these videos. You can watch these videos in the following links:

THYROIDECTOMY- Operative Surgery


THYROIDECTOMY- Operative Surgery


Dear viewers,
           Greetings from “Surgical Educator”
           Because of the popular demand by viewers of the YouTube channel “Surgical Educator”, I have decided to create and upload videos on common surgeries. I have already uploaded two videos on open and Laparoscopic Appendicectomy. In this video today, I have discussed Thyroidectomy Surgery.  However, these videos are not real surgeries but the theoretical aspect of operative surgery like going through an atlas of operative surgery. Along with these videos, I recommend you to watch real operative surgery videos as well and I will give a link for each surgery in the end of the video as end-cards, which I think will be very useful. This will give a very good opportunity for the surgical trainees to mentally rehearse various surgical steps in a sequential manner prior to actual surgery.   You can watch the video in the following links:
