I didn’t know we had Obamacare back then.

That's his stomach? Looks more like his shoulder.
But then, I've never been good at reading x-rays.

Below diaphragm, tip of scissors still below GE junction, either in stomach or in some AP location relative to stomach
To: Texas Eagle
I’m thinking that’s his pelvis on the right. A couple of good sneezes and he could have saved the cost of a vasectomy. :=)

Isn’t that his spine right below the scissors? So his head is just out of the picture to the left. Or does he have a tail?

Looks more like a set of forceps instead of scissors.

I see what you did there. ;-)
To: nickcarraway
he said his stomach still hurt, but he went to a local clinic and was diagnosed as having a stomach ache
What a great diagnosis - right on.

lol. that was sort of my thought.
but in all seriousness....i hear these stories too often for comfort.
I have to wonder: would it be too difficult to make a spreadsheet of all the stuff “on the tray” at the beginning of the operation, and then at the end of the operation just go item by item and make sure all the stuff on the spreadsheet is on the tray after the operation?
Isn’t there SOME sort of PROCESS which could help the surgery team not leave their shit behind in people’s bodies?
To: SkyDancer
He probably dragged a woman behind him in a burka.
To: nickcarraway
My guess is that by “stomach” they actually mean abdominal cavity.

“Ouch!”
Or, It only hurts when I laugh.
To: ConservativeDude
Isnt there SOME sort of PROCESS ...
I'm sure there is a process, but maybe they could enhance the outcome by just waving a magnet over the patient's body.

This man should count his lucky stars he didn’t require an MRI during those 18 years since his surgery.

They probably charged him for the instrument.
