Each case is followed by post-surgical Osteopathic treatment, and, when not an emergency, pre-osteopathic care is given. All clinical surgery cases demonstrated before the students are explained in detail by the attending surgeon. Also the history of the case, diagnosis, and surgical approach are presented to the class before the surgical procedure is begun.
