Here's a different kind of error. Generally, you're supposed to use only the *tip* of the Bovie to cut or coagulate (L photo). But sometimes people 'bury' the Bovie tip in the tissue, which could cause unintended damage. This is called 'past pointing' (R photo).

There is an insulated Bovie tip which has plastic around the more proximal part of the Bovie tip and will limit the damage that can occur from 'past pointing'. The insulated tip actually isn't used that often, because surgeons know not to 'past point', but it does exist.

Bittersweet last few days of my research year @VanderbiltENT! I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am for all of my mentors, especially @TopfHNS, who have taught me how to do good clinical research. Excited to see all that’s to come over the next year!
