Friday-
Last day of the Georgia Surgical Expeditions mission was a very busy one. We made morning rounds early so that we could get the surgical cases started and hopefully finish at a reasonable time and have a little cushion of time to trouble shoot any problems that might arise on the last day. The cases were just as challenging as they had been all week but surgeries went well. Dr. Beldia demonstrated excellent technique with a difficult vaginal hysterectomy (we think the plastic surgeons slipped that case in without us knowing). The sixteen year old girl who had intrabdominal TB and a huge cyst (26cm) diagnosed last year turned out to have an even huger cyst that we removed. It was benign, there was no active TB and hopefully she will be able to have children in the future. Gyn had the last case finished around 4:30, we made postop rounds and headed for the-you guessed it- the pool and a cold beer.
