Surgical Orientation Projects!

The summer semester is now over and it’s time to post some more of my work!

One of the classes I took this past summer was Surgical Orientation.  We had two assignments for this class- One was to draw three different surgical instruments.  (I chose to draw (from top) a mouth retractor, a hemostat and a rongeur (bone chipper))

I created this illustration in Adobe Illustrator.

And the other assignment was to illustrate a step in a surgery of our choosing.

The surgery I chose was a mesh plug hernioplasty- which is another way of saying a hernia repair.  I chose to illustrate a direct hernia repair.  I created this illustration in Corel Painter.
