Start with a question,
not a department.
Real encounters. Real decisions. Real uncertainty. Real learning.
Stories from clinical practice — patients, disease, decisions, operations, uncertainty and what they continue to teach us.
An entry can evolve
without rewriting its history.
The encounter or note enters the Journal with its current evidence state.
Pathology, imaging, operative records or literature can strengthen the underlying record.
New outcomes become dated additions rather than silent edits to the earlier story.
Interpretation may change while the original chronology remains visible.

bach jaegi na?”
Before surgery, his father had one question.
A 14-year-old boy. A tumour that had returned. An eye being pushed again. Chemotherapy had initially worked—then the mass began growing.
For the team there were questions of disease, margins, anatomy and survival. For his father, there was one: Will his eye be saved?
