Shocking ! Musician played Guitar as surgeons operated on his brain : Watch Video

A patient was seen strumming his guitar in the surgery room as doctors operated upon his brain. A video of the tricky procedure was shared on social media by one of the doctors who performed the surgery.

Taskin Ali from Dhaka was told by doctors there was no cure for his condition. The guitarist from Bangladesh was diagnosed with Focal Hand Dystonia, a condition that affected his ability to play the instrument and even type on the mobile with his left hand.

The 31-year-old came across the story of Abhishek Prasad –  a guitarist who was successfully operated upon for the same condition in Bengaluru in July 2017. After saving up for 10 months and even selling one of his guitars, Mr Ali travelled to Bengaluru with the hope of regaining function in his left hand.

The surgery was done on May 17 by a team of doctors at Bhagwan Mahaveer Jain Hospital in Bengaluru, the hospital said in a statement. The procedure involved ‘burning’ a set of ‘misbehaving and misfiring’ circuits about 8-10 centimetres deep inside Mr Ali’s brain. During the procedure, the patient is administered local anesthesia but kept fully awake for the surgeons to know if they are burning the right circuits.

Video showed Mr Ali rolling a coin between his fingers and even typing on his mobile while laying on the stretcher.
