end because that might break. What they do instead is they put two ends of it together. You can see what they did. There
was blood pooling around the liver and the spleen with mesenteric tears. They took out, they transected the small bowel
with the GI stapler, and oh yeah, it was 55 centimeters. They did anastomosis. What they did is they took the two
remaining sides of it; they took a clean cut; they put them together; and then, they closed it up together with
permanent staples to close that. And then what they did is they opened up between them, and then they sewed them
together here if you can see, sewed them together here so that when he’s digesting it goes through there. He has had
some issues with this post-surgically; however, this is the standard of care in how these small type of ruptures are
addressed. So, a lot of times, after and post an impact like that, the doctors will monitor these patients to make sure
that their organs are working well, their digestive systems, these other things because the sudden deceleration can
negatively affect someone and cause permanent injuries inside them even if they’re not noted right away.
