Yesterday, we did 11 surgeries including 2 orchiectomies (for prostate cancer), 2 thyroidectomies, a gastrectomy (for gastric outlet obstruction), a fistula in ano, an inguinal hernia, a recurrent ureterocutaneous fistula, 2 pediatric hernias, and a bone biopsy. We have done a total of 35 surgeries in 5 days. There are 30 patients waiting for surgery. The hospital is full and patients are sleeping on mattresses on the floor. We are just warming up!
