Season 4: Episode Four

Orthopedic Surgery

For our proposal, we decided to focus on ortho cases specifically the most common
breaks that occurred and the type of surgeries on how to correct them. We will also be talking about common injuries and damages that can occur to joints and bones, and finally, we will discuss amputation and how it is performed. Karina and Kelsey will be doing the research while Alondra would be doing do the speak portion for the podcast.
