This lecture is really so cool. He made it very clear. I had learned in a Vietnamese lecture but still didn't get it for a long long time. And now I feel everything is clear
V we ry simple an very informative the same time. Really appreciate it. Thank you
Very clear . The image is excellent. The causes of the hernia are taken in other lectures and this one is focused on the way that is made. perfect for a first approximation to surgery.
