PreOp® Patient Education: CystoscopyMale Surgery
The 2D animation explains the process involved in a male cystoscopy procedure. A cystoscopy is a procedure that allows a urologist to see inside the urinary bladder. Note that the instruments shown in the animation are smaller relative to the patient in an actual cystoscopy.

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
This video shows precisely what a surgeon sees during a laparoscopic cholescystectomy. A laparoscopic cholescystectomy is gallbladder removal surgery using small incisions and cameras rather than a large abdominal incision. This video may be difficult for some viewers since it shows surgery on actual human tissue.
Type 2 Diabetes
Type 2 diabetes, when poorly controlled, can directly damage several organs and tissues like the kidney, the retina of the eye, and the nerves. Type 2 diabetes also leads to increased risk of heart disease and arterial disease and makes it harder for wounds to heal (delays healing).
