Posting videos from the operating room may be a creative way for plastic surgeons to market their skills, but critics say some surgeons seem to place entertainment value ahead of medical ethics. Videos reviewed by Northwestern Medicine researchers showed the following, according to the Chicago Tribune:-- Two surgeons dancing to a rap song next to a patient’s bare buttocks. -- A plastic surgeon holding the skin and fat removed from a patient as if it were a baby. Such videos, while intended as humor, raise serious ethical and safety questions, the paper’s authors say. Schierle told the Tribune that most plastic surgeons oppose the idea of creating videos during surgery, and would like to see the practice stopped.
