I had never heard of this procedure, but noticed an article in the newspaper.
The article was cautioning patients because in some patients, the dr. was unaware that the woman had a malignant tumor and this procedure caused the cancer to spread.
I mention it here as a PSA........tuck it into your memory bank.
couple of articles:
