Routine surgery

Routine surgery to punch hearing aid abutment into his skull.. Sounds scary but allows the hairband to go and should be straightforward.

Problems with breathing mask. Had to intubate/ breathing tube down throat and ventilator instead.

Surgery itself successful. But then they couldn't extubate/ take out tube.

Critical emergency. They knocked out his two front teeth to get into his airway and save his life.

As said, routine surgery in CHARGE syndrome. It has a different meaning.
