Paid a courtesy call to my mentor, Prof Agbakwuru as he came for official assignment in the FCT.
For those who know him, he is one of the reasons we chose to specialise in surgery.

As a surgeon you have to have a controlled arrogance. If it's uncontrolled, you kill people, but you have to be pretty arrogant to saw through a person's chest, take out their heart and believe you can fix it. Then, when you succeed and the patient survives, you pray to God.

pregnancy in 50% of cases and reduces to 25% after 10years.
Note: the quality of sperm after vasectomy reversal is poor compared to before. Hence men are adviced NOT to get a vasectomy till they are SURE they have completed their families. Have a brilliant day!

Meticulous dissection is required to skeletonise the renal artery, vein and ureter & delivering a healthy renal allograft.
This has a significant bearing on the success of kidney transplant surgery.
Every member of the team plays a crucial role in making this process successful.

Scrubbing is a ritual for all surgical specialties. It's aimed at reducing microbes in the skin of the surgeon and prevent contamination of the patient . Gowning and gloving is also carried out in a meticulous procedural fashion.

This is because they already have 1 or more risk factors for the disease.
