Transcript

00:00 My worst emergency story is when I was in the ICU

00:04 I was receiving a patient who was a gang leader

00:07 who had a bullet wound on his leg

00:10 I examined him, the wound was absolutely catastrophic

00:13 The young urologist came down to see him

00:16 She decided to put him to sleep and operate on him

00:19 by amputating his sex

00:21 The operation went well, the difficulty was when the patient woke up

00:25 He found himself in this state, he entered a black rage

00:30 What was interesting was to see the reaction of this young urologist

00:35 who took the responsibility, explained everything to the patient

00:38 and in a few minutes managed to make him understand

00:41 that it was absolutely essential, that she did it for his own good

00:44 for his safety, and this gentleman unfortunately accepted

00:48 and understood the necessity of this intervention
