Cauterization

But they also have a bleed in their stomach, and so we will go up and we'll, we'll do interventions to stop the bleed.

So, we might put clips in or we might use Cautery or different things.

So yeah, it can be quite intense and very high stakes when you're dealing with really sick people.

So, you're right.

You know, we got, we got chest cavities to work on." This prostate, it's stuck behind the rectum, the bladder, big, big, big blood vessels that, that were really hard to figure out how to control back in the early 1900s.

I mean, this is barely before we had Cautery, where we had to cut a vessel, tie a vessel, cut a vessel, tie a vessel.

And, and Cautery came around, I think, in the early 1900s, and, uh, and that allowed us to go a little bit faster.

But the bottom line is the prostate's in a really tough area, so it's easy to do it endoscopically, as, uh, Kimora and I talked about last time.

But sometimes we, even if we go endoscopically, we can't do those smaller prostates.
