My lap cholecystectomy

I went for lap cholecystectomy yesterday at Sime Darby (Subang) Medical Center in Subang. The operation took less than one hour. This procedure remove my gall bladder as it was full of stones.
Some of the stones. Some were so huge that the surgeon had to crush them. That explain why the stones in the above pictures look like being crushed.
Key holes operation were done. I was under general anesthetic (GA). The technology is now so advanced that this operation can really be a "one day affair". Only four holes were made for this operation. 
I was given a CD of the whole procedure. I captured one image for your viewing. Click on the above picture if you think you can stand the gross image.
