When I was in high school I worked at a hospital in the housekeeping department. In summers I was the relief worker that would cover various people while they took vacations. The best gig after working Emergency, was the operating rooms. I would work in the "clean" part of the OR and would scrub down the operating rooms after surgery. The result of which was that I got to observe (through the window) a good number of operations. Most, because they took place inside a body cavity, were difficult to observe from where I was standing. The most graphic operations where amputations, joint replacements and nose jobs. Eye opening to say the least.
As for maggot therapy I have seen this on TV a few times and while part of my mind cringes at the thought of the maggots on my flesh, I wouldn't hesitate to use them.
