PTZ got a note from the creators of the 1st installment, “Kruse’s Eye!”… the cyst hath returned! It goes like this: “Thanks for posting our vid, we uploaded a second video for you viewing pleasure! It’s entitled “Kruse’s Eye 2″ on youtube. This time the *&%$ really hits the fan, literally!” Isn’t it nice when [...]

WOAH it looks like a breast implant! Crazy!
If you look closely folks at the double lumen cath. that is in the cyst, the surg. is actually filling it with some amt. of fluid. I am fairly sure that causes he cyst to “roll” out with min. cutting, except of course,excluding the initial incision. These things are usually the prettiest shade of blue. Amazing what we are capable of, yet we cn’t cure the common cold!
I believe we are capable of alot more than the surg. general will let us know about. Oh no I’m a commie nurse out I go!! Does that count any longer since the cold war is over, and those walls were demolished??
Found this and thought it was interesting…and gross: Hydatid disease is caused by the infestation of the larvae of taenia echinococcus. The definite hosts of echinococcus are various carnivores, the common being the dog. All mammals (more often being sheep and cattle) are intermittent hosts. Humans get infected through the faeco-oral route by ingestion of food or milk contaminated by dog faeces containing ova of the parasite or by direct contact with dogs. The eggs loose their enveloping layer in the stomach, releasing the embryos. The embryos pass through the wall of the gut into the portal system and are carried to the liver where most larvae get entrapped and encysted. Some may reach the lungs and occasionally, some may pass through the capillary filter of the liver and lungs and get entry into the systemic circulation. These may even reach the brain. Some patients develop seizure but almost all cases involved are pet owners.
Actually the goal is not to rupture the cyst in any way as it could cause sepsis and death. The water pressure is going behind the cyst causing it to pop out like that. The cyst is completely intact and is probably the larvae of a tape worm. There are several videos of these on you tube beign popped out. It is amazing. The brain will just spread back out and fill in the cavity.
HOOOOOOOOOOOOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIZNIGHT!!!! am i understanding correctly, that the thing wasnt actually that big? That they actually filled it with fluid to get it out? I sure as hell hope so, however……kinds gives a whole new meaning to callin someone ” water-head” !! (southern thing) hehehe y’all havea great weekend!!! keep on poppin!
OMG, OMG, that was just awful. Not quite sure I understood what was going on and the cause of the tumor was too painful to read. Thanks for the interesting posting.
And I let my puppy kiss my face. I keep him up to date on all his shots, pills, and drops so he should be covered.
The pressure on the brain must have been really bad, that was a huge cyst in there! How the brain just “reformed” and went back into place was cool. Hope the person made a full recovery, that was insane!
Okay guys, even tho your dogs have all the proper vet care, dogs are gross. (I love mine, but seriously!) All a dog has to do is eat animals droppings or walk around on contaminated ground to get worms. And because dogs constantly munch on their butts, chances are you could get worms if your dog has worms. On the plus side, if you are an observant pet owner you can spot parasite infestations based on animals symptoms, or even seeing the worms/larvae come out of said but or in fecal matter.
After finding out you can get worms from dog kisses, I stopped that fun little habit a long time ago.
I’ve seen a similar one before and yes, they fill the cavity in the skull so the fluid pushes the “thing” out. I wonder if that cavity in the head will be there for ever or if it just grows stuff again???
Squeeze queen… once in a great while dogs can have certain bacterias on their teeth that can kill you. My mother had a patient in the hospital that came in as an emergency and the woman literally rottened alive (her legs died off within hours) from a tiny dog bite/scratch. She was dead within 36 hours. That is a very very rare incident though.
I still give my dog kisses on his squishy face…
Hey…uh…yeah….anyone got like a Tylenol….I’ve got a major headache…feels kinda like I have a WATER BALLOON in my nugget! Oh you do? Thanks!
terrific technique. can i still lock lips with my cats?
thanks, emil!
all things ‘brain’ give me the heebie-jeebies… i imagine the surgeons crying out “oops!” as IQ points, memories, language abilities and all motor function go flying out the window…
i have seen these one’s in youtube and was never sure they would qualify here. seems we have expanded our sick interests though, to everything from boogers to bug bites, so i guess this one would be a welcome addition here, LOL!
oh and…eeww, eeww, eewwww! on the dog kisses, yeelch, barf. i am a dog lover and there is no way i would let my dogs, no matter how well cared for and healthy kiss my face, let alone any other part of my skin that could transfer the bacteria that all our beloved fur-faces carry
i think the worst is letting a dog lick your sores or cuts, quickest way to infection ever. don’t believe the bull about a dog’s mouth being so clean. thats a whole pile of hooey and hogwash. their saliva may help their own sores, but not humans.
cats have a deadly bacteria in their mouths too, that is why the creatures they hunt and we try to save, die anyway. they have been bitten by the cat and their blood gets toxic and they die. also we humans can get “cat scratch fever” (cue ted nugent here) from a bite or scratch from our kitty-cats
feline mouth bacteria has a similar effect as the komodo dragon’s bite, though not quite as deadly to people. the dragons take a bite out of large prey, then they wait around for their prey to die or weaken enough from the infectious bacteria in their gooey mouths, then it supper time for all.
Great hydatid cyst video, best I’ve seen.
As far as the comments regarding the injection of fluid: from what I’ve read, the doctors inject the fluid in back of and around the cyst to help push it out, never inside the cyst itself. Extreme care is taken to avoid breaking the cyst wall, as the cyst itself is filled with thousands and thousands of larvae. If the cyst is punctured, it means certain death for the host because the larvae will spread throughout the entire system, creating new cysts everywhere.
Oh, and I’m never kissing my cat on the mouth again. I do it far too often because I am unable to resist her. However, after reading the comments regarding the similarities of feline saliva to that of the komodo dragon, my days of squish-kissing my cat are over.
isn’t it interesting the trivia and knowledge that people contribute to the discussions here?
i think its so cool, LOL!
The disease cycle begins with an adult tapeworm infecting the intestinal tract of the definitive host. The definitive host is usually a carnivore. The adult tapeworm then produces eggs which are expelled in the host’s feces. Intermediate hosts, usually herbivores, become infected by ingesting the eggs of the parasite. Ingestion of eggs can occur by consumption of fecal contaminated food. Inside the intermediate host, the eggs hatch and release tiny hooked embryos (called oncospheres) which travel in the bloodstream, eventually lodging in an organ such as the liver, lungs and/or kidneys. There, they develop into hydatid cysts. Inside these cysts grow thousands of tapeworm larvae, the next stage in the life cycle of the parasite. When the intermediate host is predated or scavenged by the definitive host, the larvae are eaten and develop into adult tapeworms, and the infection cycle restarts.

My comment is made from exp. not research or anything more. There was a time when surg. tech. did not exist. The position was nurse mngr. and surgical nurse. I have assisted w/this surg. many years ago et it doesn’t appear the technique has changed. The wall of these cysts are very stable. na. sal.09% is pushed through the lumen in the cath, yes behind et bi/lat. sides if possible. fl has also been put directly into the cyst anticipating a ballooning effect, so the tissue will “pop” out w/out additional cutting save the initial incision. The body then is flushed with hydrating fl. et antiparasitacal medications. The procedure has great effect, but is really only typical. The reduction of an aneurysm is something to see, in my opinion. I have been fortunate enough to view but long time out of the surg. before the technique was perfected..
Holy zit!
*Standing Ovation*
May God guide his hands.
Is there any part of the body that is safe from growing a cyst? I thought it looked like a solution was inserted into this monster & then flushed around it to get it to roll out. Thanks MomE for the info & Emil for posting.
I know critters carry all kinds of “stuff.” My old tom sneezed in my face & gave me an ulcer in the right nostril. Had gushing nose bleeds for a month.
It’s gone! No video for me to see…
yupp its gone!!!
This is the same video:

Is there a way for this post to be fixed to include the working one?
