Why is a lobotomy performed?
This information is for educational purposes only. Even by a
doctor or surgeon the procedure is typically against Federal Law to
conduct. You first want to make absolutely sure that this is the
only alternative procedure to pursue before operating. Most nations
do not allow for this operation accept in the most unusual of
circumstances (i.e. having trouble with large inmates in a prison
with extreme psychotic behaviors etc) While the procedure is fairly
simple to perform, it can cause lasting damage and even death. You
first want to sedate your patient. Anesthetics are best but
electro-shock has also been used to render the patient
incompacitated (if using electro-shock be careful. Not only with
voltage but the sedation won't last but a few minutes.) Second, you
place a cloth gently over the mouth, nose and lower half of the
eyes. You then proceed to pull the eyelid up and insert an icepick
or similar instrument just below the eyelid, above the eye itself
and against the orbital bone. Slowly and carefully push the
instrument in and upward until you hit bone. This is the thinest
area of the skull. It may take very light tapping with a small
hammer on the instrument to get it to break through. Once this is
done you can successfully enter the Frontal Lobe (-your instrument
should NEVER exceed 7cm deep-) At this point you move the
instrument back and forth until the Frontal Lobe is disconnected
from the thalamus. (ususally left 3cm then right 3cm 3 to 5 times)
You have now successfully severed the terminal nerves in the
Frontal Lobe. Third, repeat in the other eye's socket. Your patient
will have two very black eyes so you should have a pair of
sunglasses for them in order to hide their eyes, now if this
doesn't work you could try the old fashioned way. You would have to
sedate the patient with anesthetics or electro shock ( recommended
to perform at Sea World or be as close to water as possible for
maximum conductivity) From here, you would make an incision on the
top of the forehead, like a cross formation, sort of like an X
sideways. Continuing on, you would plunge your scalpel into the
middle of the formation. Then, you would rummage around the
cerebral cavity till you would find the one that lights up like a
match. Remember: this information is for educational purposes only.
