I've heard some doozies. Friend of my mom has a birds nest of wire all through her pericardium because of some inept surgeon decades ago.

That, combined with the video of the toothpaste-consistency, vibrant green goop that came out of an infected incision has given me a profound respect for good surgeons and post-op wound care.
