Satisfying surgical Removal of a massive 11 inch pulmonary embolism from Dr. Beyer.
Oren Gottfried, MD2,321,503 views • 3 years ago

This is the part of being a doctor I hate most. A patient looks at you and begs you to remove the tumor, or just help them somehow… and you already know there’s nothing left you can safely do to improve their quality of life or survival. Their cancer is just too aggressive. In this case, it had completely taken over the skull, face, and even the brain. No miracle surgery. No cure. No words that make it better. Just watching the hope leave someone’s face while you try to offer honesty, compassion, and whatever dignity you still can. These conversations stay with doctors forever. They are infinitely harder for the patient and their family. I’m so sorry. #braincancer #cancerawareness #neurosurgeon #braintumor #medicaleducation
