[00:00:14]Um I we've seen some of these retained object cases that have been in someone's body for a uh 10 years or more, right?

[00:00:21]And sometimes it causes infection, but sometimes the body and it's magnificent will grow over it and it'll create this growth. So anyway, um you know, I always use an example. Hey, you know, I went in to get my right arm amputated, but they accidentally amputated my left arm.
