یہ حالت دیکھیں KFC جو کہ ایک بین الاقوامی فوڈ چین ہے ایک غریب بندہ کو اوپر بلڈنگ کے پینٹ کے لئے چڑھایا ہوا ہے، نہ ہیلمٹ، نہ جوتے ، نہ رسی جو بندے کے پیٹ پر باندھی جاتی ہے۔ یہ بندہ گرا تو سیدھا موت کے منہ میں ہوگا۔ انسان کی قیمت اتنی سستی کیوں؟ کیا امریکہ میں بھی ایسا ہی ہوتا ہے؟

Just a rant from a neurosurgeon who deals with brain injury.
The exploitation of humans in Pakistan should end. This person working at KFC seaview Karachi can die if falls, no helmet,no shoes,no lifeline anchor, no rope descent, no protective gear.

@asadnasir2000 Its the best bakery in Pakistan, in terms of quality & taste. I have tasted from all famous bakeries in Lahore & Karachi.
Probably you havebeen bribed by the jealous opponents

I worked at the top Oncology Center in Pakistan. My oncology colleagues,1 trained in Cambridge, another in Montreal,were surprised to see an extraordinarily aggressive behavior of brain tumors in patients,from Afghanistan/Western Pakistan. The idea of a nuclear war just broke me!

Intramedullary spinal cord tumor.
This young man from across the border recently came to me with acutely worsening weakness and severe spasticity. I did a revision surgery gross total resection. Previously operated in 2021 at some other centre, they did a biopsy and sent for XRT.

[Michael T. Lawton, MD @mtlawton]

The spinal cord is a scary thing to incise. The cord has a midline fissure that makes it easier there, but paramedian cord does not. However, myelotomy along dorsal root entry zone (DREZ) is safe for dorsal spinal cord cavernous malformations, entering posteromedial to descending corticospinal tract & dancing around posterior spinal artery…

Patient with MRSA spondylodiscitis and osteomyelitis from C1-6 with failed medical therapy over 6 weeks, causing severe cervical stenosis. I had no other options other than to fix from C0-T2 and decompress from C2-5. Patient sent home walking on 6th post-op day.
