  • Perfect example of how things can be so miscontrued. I am an RN & used to work at the same hospital Dr. Guiler did for a number of years. The uterus was being REMOVED & it must be marked to distinguish a particular 'side' of the organ during the removal process & this is discussed with the patient during preop. Each physician uses a particular 'mark' to distinguish the work as his own as the organ is sent to the pathology lab. Dr. M happened to use UK as his own. Don't get all carried away folks

  • why are there no fucking comments on this video? you lazy bastards

  • Doctors who perform endoscopic investigations for potential cancers TYPICALLY will mark the tissue so as to now the exact location, at a later date, of where they previously investigated. It would be poor medicine NOT to mark the tissue with a unique identifier specific to that doctor. Some use a tatto, some use a brand. Clearly the other folks commenting here have little knowledge of what they speak.

  • If you google it, well, it was going to be removed and he used that as a brand to show right from left. So it says.

  • This is crazy. I hope this is setup. It just didn't look like it at all. This surgeon should be struck off, dead tissue leads to infection, scarring and potential longterm problems. This sucks!

  • Did that sick bastard get in trouble for branding "UK" on that uterus?
