What do they do with the head in cranioectomy?
A cranioectomy is literally the cutting off of a patient's head, in order to cure certain rare and deadly diseases. This is a highly dangerous procedure and thus is only used in extreme circumstances.
What is the thirteenth book in the series of unfortunate events about?
Book 8 is called 'The Hostile Hospital'. Violet, Klaus and Sunny end up staying in a hospital. They find a file which shows a picture of their parents, Jacques Snicket and an unknown man, and a caption saying that there could be a survivor of a fire, which leads the orphans into thinking that one of their parents could be alive. Violet is then captured by Esme Squalor, given anaesthetic, and an anagram of her name is hidden in a patient list. Klaus and Sunny disguise themselves as doctors and decode the patient list to find Violet. Count Olaf is planning to operate on Violet by giving her a cranioectomy (cutting her head off). When Klaus and Sunny follow Esme Squalor to the operating theatre they have to perform the operation themselves. Klaus tries to stall the operation to give time for the anaesthetic to wear off, but he has to make a quick escape with Violet and Sunny. Count Olaf sets the hospital on fire, and Violet, Klaus and Sunny are trapped in a store cupboard. Violet wakes up in time to invent something to get the three siblings out of the burning building, and because they are believed to be murderers, the book ends with them climbing into the trunk of Olaf's car as he drives away, to escape from being captured by the authorities.
