Procedimiento con cinta vaginal sin tensión (TVT) para la incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo - Medical Animation
MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: Si tiene incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo, su médico puede aconsejarle que se someta a un procedimiento con cinta vaginal sin tensión, o TVT. La incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo significa que la vejiga pierde orina durante la actividad física. Para iniciar el procedimiento, el cirujano hará dos pequeñas incisiones en su abdomen, justo por encima del hueso del pubis. Se hará otra pequeña incisión en la vagina. Se pasará una aguja a través de esta incisión dentro de su cuerpo y fuera de una de las incisiones en su abdomen. Una cinta de malla unida a la aguja se pasará a lo largo de este recorrido. Luego, una aguja conectada al otro extremo de la cinta repetirá este procedimiento en el otro lado. Una vez que la cinta esté en su lugar, el cirujano la ajustará alrededor de su uretra para proporcionarle apoyo. Los extremos de la cinta se cortarán justo debajo de la piel. Al final del procedimiento, la incisión vaginal se cerrará con suturas. Y las incisiones públicas pueden cerrarse con pegamento quirúrgico o suturas. Después del procedimiento, la cinta sujetará la uretra y evitará el escape de orina. Con el tiempo se forma tejido cicatrizante alrededor de la cinta para mantenerla en su lugar. Para obtener más información sobre el procedimiento de la cinta vaginal sin tensión, hable con su proveedor de atención médica.
"Whether it's demonstrating a rotator cuff tear, neck movement a few
milliseconds after rear impact, or a proposed lumbar fusion, the Doe Report
represents an instant on-line database of medical illustration for
health-care and legal professionals.
Illustrations can be purchased 'as is' or modified within hours and sent
either electronically or mounted on posterboard. An illustration is worth a
thousand words, as juries perk up and look intently to capture concepts
that are otherwise too abstract. Start with good illustrations, a clear and
direct voice, a view of the jury as 12 medical students on day one of
training, and your expert testimony becomes a pleasure, even on cross
examination. An experienced trial lawyer should also emphasize these
illustrations at the end of trial, as a means of visually reinforcing key
concepts covered.
As a treating physician, I also use these accurate illustrations to educate
my own patients about their medical conditions. The Doe Report is an
invaluable resource, and its authors at MLA have always been a pleasure to
work with."

"Medical illustrations are essential during trial for any medical malpractice case. The people at MLA have the uncanny ability of creating medical illustrations that simplify the most complex of medical concepts and human anatomy to a lay audience. The exhibits of MLA allow experts to easily describe complex concepts and human anatomy in a manner that could
not be done otherwise.
In addition, their custom illustrations show in great detail the extent of
injuries suffered and the devastating effects they have had on the client's
anatomy. These custom illustration can show, side by side, the body before
and after a catastrophic injury. The effect of this juxtaposition is
unmatched by any testimony that can be adduced at the time of trial.
Even jurors after trial have commented on the ease with which they grasp
medical concepts and anatomy once the MLA exhibits were introduced and
used by my experts. Even judges who have "seen it all" are thoroughly
impressed by the detail and sophistication of the illustrations.
"Medical Legal Art has always performed quality and efficient work. The
doctors that review the exhibits are always amazed at the precise
descriptions and drawings."
