I sterilised someone!

On my last scheduled day in theatre, i performed half a vasectomy with the assistance of my registrar.

I was allowed to hold the scalpel and make an incision and cut off a segment of his vas deferens! Woohoo!

No longer just holding retracters, cutting stitches, holding the sucker or coagulating with the diathermy. I cut flesh with a scalpel.

Euphoria. Anybody wants to volunteer for my next vasectomy case?
