The spleen and pancreas surgeon, originally from Tarrington, Herefordshire, had previously denied any wrongdoing.
Liver surgeons use an argon beam to stop livers bleeding, but can also use it to burn the surface of the liver to sketch out the area of an operation.
It is usually not harmful and the marks would normally disappear but the woman in question’s liver did not heal itself in the normal manner and the initials were found in a follow-up operation, it is alleged. Article here
Thank God He wasn’t a Proctologist…
Well, at least he didn’t leave a bite mark & a sketch of fava beans.
KILROY WAS HERE
hey! what’s wrong w/ signing your work? 😉

DAMN YOU D T !!

The legend of Zorro lives on!
Could be worse. His last name could be China.
Great. I am having major surgery in my abdomen a week from today. Now I have to worry about getting tagged on top of everything else? Maybe my surgeons will be nice and just mark the stuff they are removing.
Anyone else notice that that doctor looks an awful lot like failed presidential election spoiler Egghead McNuthin? Maybe we can get Dianny to shop this guy into a Star Trek butthead alien too!
Did he think maybe some nice couple would buy the body and renovate it in the future and find his initials?
CAN DOCTORS STOP DOING THIS SHIT!?
There was a woman, maybe 10 years ago who had surgery, and the stupid doctor, in very small letters, burned his initials into her skin.
Just DUMB man.
Maybe he just wanted to make sure any future recipient of an organ transplant knew they were getting a used liver, and not a brand-new one.
P.S. – @Bad_Brad: So…”S.C.” instead of “S.B.”? No comprende.
