Annual Coronary

Kinda like when your doctor says "oops" during surgery...

Or when your girlfriend says "we need to talk"....

Hopefully you don't hear that, being knocked out and all.

This must be the A&P equivalent of the pilot saying "we're not going
to make it".

Or your surgeon saying "Uh, Oh!!"

They do a lot of surgery without general anesthesia, now.

Yea. My A&P found a similar area several years ago. I can't remember
what he did to clean it, but I do remember him dowsing it with one of the
corrosion sprays (ACF-50 or Corrorsion-X or something) after he was done
cleaning it. You might want to do the same thing "just in case". It
couldn't hurt.

Yeah, he painted the exposed metal with the green stuff.

(Can't think of the name of that anti-corrosion paint at the moment...)

Yep, and my surgeon said "uh-oh" last year while digging out a benign lump
from a knuckle joint. I was talking to the anesthesiologist about flying,
and my heart rate monitor just about ran away with itself when I heard the
Uh-oh. I think it was just that the surgeon was about to let out a burp.

My father had a full stomach when his appendix ruptured, so they had to do
the op under spinal anesthesia. He was lying there under the drapes
enjoying the operation when the surgeon suddenly said to his resident, "Now
look what you've done." Can you say tachycardia?
