The Dermoid was visible on all four of the flatplates used to xray her abd. Contrary to popular opinion, Veterinary schoolsâ equipment may not be used on humans. The Dermoid filled the entire abd fom side walls to side walls, gutter to gutter and pelvis to rib cage. Had to peel the capsule from adjacent structure. No we did not try to save this ovary. We did put in a filter in the Vena cava prior to the procedure using the IVUS (intravenous ultrasound) gadget. No Scopes, no Morcellators..just real surgery!!!!!!!!!! Sam Sam, you mean you removed the patient from the dermoid! ;+) Robert Modugno MD MBA FACOG Sylva, NC

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
