Surgeries That Blow Doctors’ Minds

The fact these twins actually survived and didn't share a vital organ is crazy especially since it was a cranium conjoint

Huge respect to the surgeons who performed all these major surgeries flawlessly.

As someone who is short (5'4 at 20) I can say short person dysphoria is created by society. Most of my bullies were girls who picked on my smaller stature and I hear short jokes all the time. It used to bother me but I've learned to live with it and joke along as I found it better to make jokes than be angry which usually feeds into more bullying.

my husband is a bit shorter than me, initially he felt insecure but i made him realize from day one I did not care. he has a good heart that's it matters. years later he showed me same or ever more compassion and stands by me after gaining weight due to health issue and ppl started taunting or treating me bad, he is my pillar of support. we should feel good how ever we are.

Dr. Mike really is the definition of "explain to me like I'm 5" for medical stuff. Keep up the great work!

I’m not in the medical field but it’s truly fascinating to see how far medicine and surgery have evolved over the years

When my nephew was in utero docs discovered a benign tumour on his lung and we were warned that if it grew they'd have to operate but thankfully it didn't. He had it removed along with a portion of his lung when he was about 9 months old. He's 14 now and is 100% fine, it's amazing how far medical science has come and we're so, so thankful to have the NHS

Dr Mike is the definition of "if you understand it well then you can explain it in simple terms"

Dr. Mike is such a respecting person. He doesn’t judge anyone on his channel. If it’s a mental issue he encourages them to get help instead of calling them crazy or weird. For example, he advised people who are thinking about having limb lengthening surgery to first think about the mental health components of it before undergoing with any kind of physical treatment.

I watched the entire "Folded Man" documentary. It's so wonderful how they were able to help him. I can't imagine living like he was before surgery.

TW: Suicide As a survivor of MDD(major depressive disorder), seeing someone being so kind to someone else even with self-inflicted trauma rips my heart out. There are too many lovely people who have been unfortunate who deserve to be loved back. Looking back now, I've realized that every single person who has so much as looked at you or even just walked by you would care if you left. Who cares if you don't have people to talk to? There's still that old lady that you held the door open for, or the cashier at your local grocery store who smiles whenever you walk in. You are loved. And no matter how distant the words seem, no matter how much everything hurts, you are not alone.🖤

As an epileptic myself, the research study information you showed from the American Academy of Neurology hit hard and I wish would people would talk about it. I was diagnosed with epilepsy at 13 years old, im now 21. I take medication daily to control my nocturnal and absence seizures, a months worth of pills costs about $180. My rescue medication is a 1mg of Clonazepam, i only get those in blister packs of 10-15 at a time because it is a controlled substance and they still cost $300 each time??? My life saving medication should not be the equivalent of a car payment. Big pharma loves to capitalize on people with chronic conditions.

Dr.Mike is soo good at explaining us medical stuff in a really easy way!

I was born with a genetic bone disorder called MHE (multiple hereditary exostosis) and I had my arm lengthened with an external fixator to combat the dislocation of my radial head. It was one of the hardest surgeries I've had. Because I go to a specialist in limb lengthening (among other things) I've met many people who have had limbs lengthened for various reasons, mostly due to limb length discrepancies. Getting a bone lengthened is such a difficult thing to go through, i would never recommend it just for cosmetic reasons.

The face transplant one almost made me cry. Not only did it say the wound was self inflicted but there will always be those people who judge others and probably talk about her behind her back and stuff. I’m glad she’s alive too and I hope she lives happily for as long as possible.

I had gastric bypass surgery in 2007 the surgery was when they just started doing it via laparoscopic. I was 590lb and now I am 200 . I am 100% sure it saved my life. I have NEVER regretted it.

I think this is the first time I’ve actually been notified by YouTube at the time of an upload

Ankylosing spondylitis is so painful and life changing. Whilst I know we aren’t all like the man in China, we definitely struggle. It’s definitely not just a “oh my mum has a sore knee” type of arthritis.

as an ill person myself this makes me feel better, i'm scared to death of hospitals, but the calmness of Dr Mike, makes me feel that little bit better

4:34 I love how passionately Mike killed any possibility of musical sense coming from the heart lol
