Common during lap chole: after ductomy for IOC, you milk a stone out of cystic duct. Cystic then feels soft, but when you place IOC cath there is complete resistance/back pressure to flushing. WWYD next??!?

Learn how to do this …next level is being able to flip the needle to backhand by gently putting the tip on something and spinning the needle. Residents will swoon seeing this 😂

Historic surgical 'I have a comment...' moment:

Richard Cattell's comment on a presentation at the Southern Surgical in 1952 in which he described what would later become known as the 'Cattell-Braasch' maneuver when it was finally published in 1960, some *8 years* later. 🧐

So many lessons, that sadly, need to be reinforced. It is important to share these experiences so others can learn. ICG, robots, etc are no replacement for meticulous techniques and adherence to principles of safe chole.

This is a must watch.
