Dr. Dahiya:
I think all surgeons know what we call a “virgin belly”--that there is no doctor that has been in a given area. There are no adhesions; all the blood vessels, blood supply, everything is the way that we are born. It’s perfect. But when somebody has been there, what we call the “human hands,” with the human hands we leave adhesions behind. We also cut some blood vessels so you don’t know which ones are cut and how much is left. So, it’s lot more complicated and it also, you got to figure out what’s going to work this time. So all of these things are going to figure in, so it’s a lot more complicated than first time.
