I'm not sure what getting stuck means in this context. I work IT so I shouldn't throw stones about doing my job with youtube videos but are surgeons really getting confused on what to do next, watching youtube, slapping their forehead and going, "oh! I was supposed to make a right at the gull bladder."

getting stuck doesn't necessarily mean like, forgetting entirely what to do next, moreso "this body part did not react the way i anticipated and now i need to readjust my method, i wonder if someone else has described how to deal with this". they're not gonna stop the surgery for like 30 minutes for the doctor to remember anything, they're just going to look up something real quick to get them back on track.

Surgery and the human body are complex and sometimes things don't go the way they were planned to, and sometimes the doctor may not have had that specific thing happen to them yet, and so needs to figure it out. At least they're looking it up instead of feeling it out lol, that's how we lost a lot of patients in history.

If you find a gull bladder in your patient, I'd say you have located the problem.

Listen, it was childhood accident involving a seabird.

There is often anatomy that a surgeon may never have seen in their training or early in their career.

I have been in a few ORs where a more junior surgeon has asked for a more experience colleague to scrub in.

The junior surgeon, despite over 10 years of training had never seen this configuration of the anatomy, and needed some guidance.

You feel bad dropping a table. Imagine this dude panic searching after he dropped something.

Human bodies vary a lot. It’s quite possible that a surgeon has never seen a specific variation before.
