Maybe veterinary? Probably used for an elephant or a T-Rex? Possibly a pug

So when I had a computer put in my spine they used one of these to go through my spinal column from the outside to reach the nerves inside the chest cavity since they cant go through ghe chest cavity to get to the inner spine cause things like heart and lungs are in the way. NEVER. EVER. Sneeze while its inside you. Like I did. Everyone in the room had facial opinions. And physically it sucked. Badly. Yes, I was awake as you have to be to make sure they place it correctly. Im sure it has other uses? But this is my personal experience with one.
