How a Foley catheter stays in place, and why the balloon must be deflated before removal. The retention balloon is what anchors a Foley catheter in the bladder. When inflated, it is much wider than the urethra, so pulling on the catheter forces that bulge through the bladder neck and urethra. This can cause pain, bleeding, tearing of the urethral lining, and later scarring or stricture. Deflating the balloon first returns the catheter to a smooth tube of uniform width, so it slides out easily and gently without damaging tissue.

A high PSA doesn't mean cancer, but it can lead to a biopsy A prostate biopsy is the step doctors use to get a clear answer about what's going on inside a walnut-sized gland that sits just below the bladder. It usually starts with a PSA (prostate specific antigen) blood test or an imaging scan that shows something suspicious. A biopsy is then recommended to find out what that finding actually is. Small tissue samples are taken from the prostate and sent to a lab for detailed analysis.

Up to 8 in 10 women develop fibroids by 50. Most never see how they're removed. Doctors can remove a fibroid and leave the uterus in place. Here's how. 🩺 Fibroids are muscle-tissue growths in the uterus. Most are benign, but they can cause heavy bleeding, pelvic pain and pressure, or fertility problems. In a laparoscopic myomectomy, the patient is under general anesthesia and the surgeon makes a few small cuts in the abdomen. A camera and slim instruments go in through them. The surgeon opens the uterine wall over the fibroid and carefully separates it from the surrounding muscle.

The hardest part of brain tumor surgery isn't removing the tumor. It's protecting everything around it. Brain tumor removal starts before anyone touches the skull. The patient is given anesthesia and the head is rigidly secured so it can't move even a millimeter. The surgeon then makes a scalp incision and removes a section of bone, called a bone flap, to reach the brain. This is a #craniotomy Under a surgical microscope, the surgeon can see the tumor magnified and separate it from the healthy tissue around it.

What actually happens during a vasectomy? Most people have never seen it explained. A vasectomy cuts and seals the tubes that carry sperm to semen. Testosterone, sex drive, and ejaculation aren't affected. It's quick, done under local anesthesia, with a short recovery. It's not instant, so a follow-up semen test confirms it worked

This surgery can stop pregnancy permanently… but your periods stay the same. A tubectomy, also called tubal ligation, is a permanent form of birth control for women. Under anesthesia, a surgeon makes a small cut and uses a thin tool to reach the fallopian tubes, the pathway an egg travels from the ovary to the uterus. The tubes are then tied, clipped, cut, or sealed, so the egg and sperm can no longer meet.
