As soon as these words were spoken!
Everyone in the operating room was stunned.
Yang Ming looked at Chen Cang and couldn’t help but sigh and hold his forehead.
Hong Ji also looked at Chen Cang with an incredulous expression and glanced down at his own foot!
Was it that he didn’t kick hard enough?
Or was it...
Could it be...
Was the kick just now misunderstood by Chen Cang?
Only Xue Zhengren, who understood Chen Cang the best, knew that when he heard these words, what was bound to co... would eventually co.
Chen Cang, is still Chen Cang after all.
Hong Ji regretted a bit, wishing he hadn’t called you here.
The other experts present looked at Chen Cang with varied expressions, each with different thoughts.
But most thought only one thing: showing off!
anwhile, outside in the office.
Xiao Runfang first felt a sense of joy upon hearing it, with a look that said: As expected, I didn’t misjudge you.
But then suddenly felt a pang in his heart!
This guy... true to your na!
Daring to propose suggestions at this mont.
Compared to Xiao Runfang, the expressions of the director and leaders of the Sino-Japanese Hospital were a bit unnatural.
Still too young!
Young people, while capable, sotis lack steadiness, love to show off, and express themselves.
But, can you please choose a different ti to show off, brother?
You’re making us anxious.
Indeed, upon hearing Chen Cang’s words, the director of the Sino-Japanese Hospital had only one thought: take down the TV!
Couldn’t you just follow the process and say: I’m sorry, I’ve tried my best?
Saying "I can’t do it" is really that hard?
Indeed!
For Chen Cang, it really is that hard.
Hong Ji and everyone else reacted the sa way initially, but he quickly adjusted his emotions and asked, "What’s your idea?"
At this mont, Chen Cang spoke earnestly: "Here’s the thing!"
"My suggestion is, since the patient’s nerves and blood vessels are severely entangled, why not consider the problem from another angle?"
"Actually, the pain and temperature fibers of the three branches of the trigeminal nerve, along with so tactile fibers, terminate in the caudal nucleus of the spinal trigeminal nucleus in the dulla through the trigeminal spinal tract.
Thus, the trigeminal spinal tract, as it passes through the lower dulla, is located in the dorsolateral superficial regions, with the pain fibers of its 1st, 2nd, and 3rd branches arranged from ventral to dorsal direction within the spinal tract."
"If we were to perform a dulla trigeminal spinal tractotomy, it’s entirely possible to alleviate the 1st branch pain, complete pain in all three branches, or bilateral pain in the patient!"
Initially, everyone in the room didn’t take Chen Cang’s ideas seriously.
Besides, they wouldn’t do it!
Absolutely not going on the operating table.
If they had to, they’d pretend not to know how!
However!
Once everyone heard Chen Cang’s explanation in detail, they were stunned.
Because...
It’s feasible!
How did this guy, Chen Cang, grow such a brilliant brain?
Why is he so ingenious?
Upon careful thought, it was just as Chen Cang said: if the approach is taken bypassing the cerebellum to reach the dulla for surgery, cutting the dulla trigeminal spinal tract without damaging the facial nerve sensation, it actually could relieve pain!
Everyone began to discuss it fervently.
The more they thought about it, the more sense it made!
The more they discussed, the more feasible it seed!
In no ti, everyone beca excited.
Looking at Chen Cang with genuine admiration.
"Yes, it’s feasible!"
"Right, I also think this plan is very good."
"This might be the only thod available right now, Professor Chen... truly impressive!"
...
Amidst the praises from those around, Chen Cang didn’t let it get to his head.
Because he knew, what these experts said didn’t count.
This surgery was still very technically challenging.
After all, it’s not perford in the mastoid area but requires bypassing the cerebellum to reach the brainstem and dulla region.
This process is far more arduous than imagined.
Moreover, most importantly, operating in the dulla region is highly risky.
Therefore, the surgery can’t be perford under general anesthesia.
Like Parkinson’s surgery, it needs to be done under local anesthesia to facilitate observation of whether the patient’s facial pain has disappeared during surgery.
However!
If an error occurs in this surgery, complications can be nurous.
Chen Cang saw these experts applauding, but once it ca to performing a craniotomy, they would run faster than anyone!
After all, these are critical nerves and tissues.
The dulla is not just a single nerve, cutting it ans cutting important parts, and you can only sever a specific spinal tract of a single nerve!
Imagine the level of difficulty!
If you’re not careful and cut too deep, damaging the inferior olive and sympathetic fibers, it could lead to dysphagia and Horner’s syndro.
If the cut is slightly higher, damaging the reticular formation can lead to ataxia, which ans walking instability, tripping oneself...
If approached too far forward, damaging the spinothalamic tract and accessory nerve can cause shoulder drooping and thermal sensory disturbance on one side...
...
In summary, once committed, there’s no turning back.
After listening, Hong Ji didn’t echo everyone else.
Instead, he began to think seriously.
He also felt it made a lot of sense!
But after carefully analyzing it, he said: "Prepare to close the cranium!"
Xue Zhengren nodded.
If it’s done as Chen Cang suggested, the surgery wouldn’t be in this region.
It needs to reach the posterior cranial fossa for an incision, and might even require cutting open the foran magnum.
Thus, the current incision is no longer usable.
Since this incision neither resolves the problem nor ets Chen Cang’s proposed idea, the cranium must be closed.
Moreover, to be honest, whether to proceed with the surgery is not sothing Hong Ji and the others can decide.
As it’s commonly said in hospitals, now it’s necessary to communicate with the patient’s family!
One can only say, this family is quite special.
The doctors need to communicate with the patient’s wife and mother.
And the mother of Prince William is the current Queen of England.
So, it’s still uncertain whether surgery can be done.
Here, Hong Ji prepared to close the cranium with the team.
However, Chen Cang’s words sparked a heated discussion in the office!
William’s wife, with shining eyes, excitedly said, "Professor Chen Cang said he has a way to treat William, is this true?"
Seeing this, Xiao Runfang didn’t know what to say.
He could only nod and say, "Theoretically, it’s possible."
At this mont, Le Peng, the director of the Sino-Japanese, just hoped the British royal family would be prudent.
Not to turn the prince into Chen Cang’s guinea pig!
Indeed!
If this surgery can be avoided, it should be avoided.
If it must be done, let it be done in the UK.
He truly was anxious.
Unfortunately, his anxiety was of no consequence.
At this ti, William’s wife instructed the staff beside her, "Contact the Queen imdiately and tell her this good news, I believe she will be very pleased!"
Indeed, as the Queen’s most cherished youngest son, William’s illness was her greatest concern.
