Okay - I wanted to make sure I hadn't completely lost my mind because I defintely remembered discussing Christina loosing her ovaries back when she had the ectopic pregnancy. Apparently they only said her fallopian tube burst, but the board had "oopherectomy" written on it beside her name, thus the confusion. Here's the transcript from
www.twiztv.com for that section of season 2, episode 3:
Quote:
DR. BURKE: Have them run all tests.
(He continues to stare at the board. The camera focuses in on next to C.YANG:
EXPLOARATORY LAPAROTOMY
ECTOPIC PREGANCY
PRPS. SALPINGO – OOPHERECTOMY
INPATIENT
Dr. Burke is shocked)
(Cut to Christina lying in a hospital room. Dr Bailey is sitting in a chair watching over her. There’s just silence for a little bit)
CHRISTINA: What happened?
DR. BAILEY: You had an extra uterine pregnancy. Your left fallopian tube burst. (she sighs) Dr. Shepard … she did everything she could but there was too much damage. She couldn’t save the tube.
(Christina doesn’t say anything, just closes her eyes)
(Cut to Kelly’s room. |
