Chapter 636: Demonstration Surgery
Xie Yiren had nothing to do. She took Zheng Ren’s keys and went to clean up his locker. She had to buy hooks, toiletries, and other things as soon as possible in case she had to work all night in the hospital and could not even brush her teeth.
It was better to be prepared for such things.
“Boss Zheng, the project for small nodules of liver cancer has made progress. Do you want to go on stage today to take a look?” Departnt Chief Kong asked after he finished arranging all trivial matters.
There was nothing to do there. The patients had just been admitted and surgeries could only be carried out tomorrow. Zheng Ren was not in a hurry to watch the radiographic films, so he agreed with a smile.
Chang Yue and Su Yun were definitely not enough. Departnt Chief Kong assigned the hospital’s chief resident, Professor Shen, to Zheng Ren’s group when Zheng Ren ca to the Imperial Capital. He helped Chang Yue familiarize herself with the operation there as soon as possible.
As for Su Yun... He was not a young master, but a master himself.
He could not be counted on for all the miscellaneous tasks below him.
Of course, neither Departnt Chief Kong nor Zheng Ren wanted him to do miscellaneous tasks. If that was the case, it would be a waste of his God-given gifts.
Just as he was about to go on stage with Departnt Chief Kong, Zheng Ren received a call. He picked it up and saw that it was from a strange foreign number.
Was it from the professor?
Zheng Ren only realized just then that he had forgotten to pick up the professor that morning.
F*ck...
“Lil Fugui, where are you?” Zheng Ren picked up the phone and asked.
“Okay, I’ll get Su Yun to pick you up. You can just wait there.” After Zheng Ren said that, he did not give the professor a chance to complain and just hung up the call.
“Was it Professor Rudolf?” Departnt Chief Kong imdiately guessed the truth of the matter and asked with a smile.
“Hehe, I forgot. I completely forgot.” Zheng Ren chuckled.
“64-slice CT scan with 3D-image reconstruction and a co-construction project with the CT room. Now, every small nodule of the liver cancer project has to be reconstructed by the surgeon.” Departnt Chief Kong said to Zheng Ren, “The effect is indeed good. After the postoperative follow-up, the recovery rate has been significantly improved.”
“How many cases have been done?” Zheng Ren asked.
“Three hundred and thirty-eight cases. Ninety-two cases were cured in one go. The rest have also been controlled.”
“That’s good.” Zheng Ren smiled.
“But because of thin blood vessels, so patients can’t be embolized even with 64-slice CT scan with 3D-image reconstruction,” Departnt Chief Kong said.
“This is a problem on a technical level. As long as you pay attention and study it well, you can improve on it.”
“Then there’s another problem.” Departnt Chief Kong finally caught up to Zheng Ren. It was a wonderful thing to have enough ti to exchange surgical experiences.
“What’s wrong?”
“Two patients’ tumor branches ca from the internal mammary artery. You know how difficult it is to superselect them in those areas. Many tis during the superselection, the micro guide wires were repeatedly superselected, causing the plaque attached to the internal mammary artery to fall off.”
“Uh...”
“As a result, two patients developed symptoms of cerebral infarction,” Departnt Chief Kong said. “However, because they were discovered in ti, so the patients were imdiately treated with thrombolytic therapy. After the surgery, they recovered very well and there were no more major problems.”
The surgery was done ticulously so there were definitely benefits. However, the corresponding complications would also increase. If it was a simple surgery, the patient’s symptoms would be reduced and there would be almost no complications. However, the surgery’s effects...were just that.
It was a problem of techniques, just like the second stage of TIPS surgery. Anyone would understand the reason at a glance. However, most doctors would not be able to do it even if it was said it could be done.
Even the young and middle-aged technical backbones like Professor Rudolf Wagner and Gao Shaojie were completely unable to overco the technical barrier.
“Hmm, this problem can actually be solved.” Zheng Ren followed Departnt Chief Kong to the operating theater while he muttered, “Have there been any corresponding patients recently?”
“Yes,” Departnt Chief Kong said, “There are two patients. Both of the tumor’s blood vessels are involved in the internal mammary artery. Moreover, they’re older and there are a lot of plaques on the intima of the blood vessels. I calculated that when you ca back, you would be tired. Therefore, I didn’t expect any surgery.”
As he spoke, Departnt Chief Kong glanced at Zheng Ren and said with a smile, “Boss Zheng, are we going to do two demonstration surgeries today?”
“It can’t be considered a demonstration. I’ll try to do it for everyone’s reference.”
“Alright.” Departnt Chief Kong imdiately agreed. He took out his cellphone and made a call. He told the doctors below to ask the patients to stop drinking water and start the surgery at noon.
Everything there was familiar and unfamiliar to Zheng Ren at the sa ti.
The operating theater of every hospital was similar. The operating theater here was bigger than Sea City and there were more doctors.
The interventional radiology suite was a special operating theater. It was used by the blood bank, the Departnt of Neurology, and the Departnt of Tumor Interventional Surgery.
As for the circulating interventional radiology suite, there was a separate operating theater. After all, there were a lot of patients with myocardial infarction and the volu of surgery was large enough to support it.
After changing his clothes, Zheng Ren followed Departnt Chief Kong and ca to the interventional surgery’s operating theater.
Departnt Chief Kong had four groups under him and he was in charge of the administration. However, Departnt Chief Kong did not have that much energy. He only needed to take care of his own business.
In the operating room, the patients had already been sent up and the doctors were busy. Zheng Ren found the patient’s 64-slice CT scan with 3D-image reconstruction and inserted it into the radiographic film viewer to read it carefully.
They were indeed the top Class Three Grade A Hospitals in the country. The quality of the 64-slice CT scan with 3D-image reconstruction was impeccable for Zheng Ren.
To be able to do this in just a few months, Zheng Ren was also very moved. He was moved by the basic qualities of the doctors there and the ability of Departnt Chief Kong to lead the team.
The patient’s radiographic films were very typical. The cirrhosis nodules had turned into liver cancer. A few small blood vessels were very thin but Zheng Ren estimated that Departnt Chief Kong would be able to succeed in the selection.
Because it was only the transformation of the small nodules, the patient’s alpha-fetoprotein did not even rise.
It was the benefit of daily physical examinations. If it was ten or twenty years ago, physical examinations would not have been common. When the patient had symptoms, then the examination would be carried out. Liver cancer, a malignant tumor with an extrely high degree of malignancy, was already very difficult to treat.
Therefore, liver cancer was known as the King of Cancer.
Zheng Ren looked at the radiographic films and understood the patient’s condition. He quietly sat down and waited for the operation to begin.
“Boss, you’re here!” The professor’s voice ca from outside the door.
“Keep your voice down. Surgery is going on inside,” Zheng Ren said.
The professor imdiately lowered his voice and stood behind Zheng Ren. He asked in a low voice, “Is it the TIPS surgery?”
“No, it’s the interventional surgery for liver cancer,” Zheng Ren said.
“What’s there to see?” The professor was disdainful. “Boss, you have to realize that we don’t have much ti.”
“I’ve brought up the surgery list. Why don’t you go down and help Chang Yue?” Zheng Ren said casually as he saw that Departnt Chief Kong had already started the superselection in the operating theater.
“Boss, I’m a foreigner. It’s already good enough that I can speak Chinese. To write dical records... I haven’t done this stuff in decades.” Rudolf Wagner felt a little wronged.
Indeed, the professor had countless people under him. He was only responsible for the surgery.
However, in Zheng Ren’s case, his role seed to have inadvertently beco like Little Oliver’s. He was also involved in all sorts of chores.
He was really helpless.
