"Who the f*ck did the surgery!" Gao Shaojie was extremely angry.
Li Jianguo sighed. "Didn't a patient with a vascular malformation come in this morning? It wasn't a serious matter and just needed to be diagnosed by an angiogram. Our timeslot is at 9.30pm so after they spoke to the head nurse, they arranged for it to be on our stage."
If it was just an angiogram, 10 minutes would have been more than enough.
This was also the reason why Zheng Ren did not dare to say anything when he shouted at Gao Shaojie on stage to save the patient with a ruptured liver.
Such a simple angiogram was actually wasting more time than Zheng Ren cutting out someone's liver. How could Gao Shaojie have the face report this to him?
However, how careless must the other person have been in order to push the guide wire in when pushing the medicine.
The guide wire was smooth and had little resistance as it swam into the blood vessels. Regardless of whether it reached the heart's blood supply arteries or the brain, the patient would definitely die!
Chapter 488 - Can I Try?
Gao Shaojie looked inside. The room was filled with people.
As long as the people in the Interventional Surgery Department did not go on stage, as long as they were good enough, they would all be in the operating room.
It was not just the interventional surgery department. The vascular surgery department Chief stood in the operating room with his hands behind his back and a gloomy face.
The appearance of the vascular surgery department meant that once they could not take out the guide wire that was swimming in the blood vessels, they would brace themselves and go on stage to cut open the patient and retrieve the guide wire.
If they really had to go this far... The patient's life would definitely be uncertain.
Regardless of the vascular surgery's success or failure, the neurosurgeon's whole career would be considered ruined.
'F*ck!' The elegant Gao Shaojie cursed in his heart.
"Teacher Gao, they saved the patient for the whole night yesterday and performed three cerebral hemorrhage surgeries. I think they're exhausted," Li Jianguo explained to the neurosurgeon in a low voice.
However, this explanation was far too weak. At the very least, the patient was lying on the operating table and their fate was still unknown.
Although it seemed like nothing had happened, once the guide wire traveled to the key parts of the body, he could die at any time.
This was equivalent to having a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment in the patient's body. No one knew when it would do so.
Once it exploded, the doctor and the patient would be smashed into pieces.
In the operating room, two doctors were concentrating on "fishing" out the guide wire. One doctor stood behind them and said something from time to time.
On the LCD screen in the operating room, the two guide wires were entangled together. They kept changing their angles in an attempt to remove the guide wire.
Gao Shaojie did not expect this to happen either. He was in a dilemma.
How was he going to explain this to Zheng Ren?!
The atmosphere in the operating room felt like it had chilled over. It was so oppressive that it caused one's blood pressure to soar. It was as if blood was about to come out of one's eyes, mouth, and nose.
"Teacher Gao, let's do this." Zheng Ren stood quietly beside Gao Shaojie. He looked at the image on the LCD screen and commented softly.
Gao Shaojie was embarrassed. Actually, there were many things that doctors could not control, such as the situation in front of them.
No one wanted it, but it would happen occasionally.
"Teacher Zheng, I'm really sorry," Gao Shaojie said apologetically.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-surgeon's-studio_16489637605120805/can-i-try_50182157200572421 for visiting.
"Huh?" A doctor beside him turned to look at Zheng Ren.
Gao Shaojie called him Teacher Zheng. Could he be a professor in the Imperial Capital?
"Old Gao, this is..."
"Old Liu, this is Teacher Zheng. I invited him to do the TIPS surgery." Gao Shaojie deliberately hid Zheng Ren's affiliation to Sea City General Hospital.
After all, this was the Provincial Capital. It was the medical center of the entire province, the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University.
To invite a young doctor from Sea City to do the surgery would feel like a joke to them.
"Hello, Teacher Zheng." Professor Liu who was leading the group politely extended his hand and greeted Zheng Ren.
Professor Liu knew very well who Gao Shaojie was.
To be able to make him call him Teacher Zheng meant that this person definitely had his strengths. As for the TIPS surgery, a portion of the patients had been found by Professor Liu.
Therefore, he was even more curious about what this Teacher Zheng had done to get Gao Shaojie to hire someone to perform the surgery.
Not only did he invite him, but he was also so eager during the process too.
"Hello, Teacher Liu." Zheng Ren held professor Liu's hand while saying that softly with a smile.
Professor Liu and Zheng Ren were now face to face, both stunned for a moment.
This person was very young. Although he was wearing a sterile cap and mask, he looked like a young man who was not even 30 years old.
What was Old Gao doing! Why would he call a young man a teacher and invite him to do TIPS surgery? Did he even know what TIPS surgery was?
Professor Liu was puzzled but did not say this out loud.
Moreover, his mind was not in the right state right now. There was a major medical accident on the operating table. Although it had nothing to do with Professor Liu, the feeling of a fox mourning the death of a rabbit and the feeling of an animal hurting something else was particularly clear.
On the LCD screen, the black shadow of the guide wire under the x-ray light seemed to be trying its best to touch the free guide wire. There was a buckle on its head as it tried its best to fasten to the free guide wire.
However, after a winding action, the two guide wires did not bind together. Instead, they separated without any hesitation as the surgeon continued.
The operating room was filled with frustration and disappointment.
The vascular surgery department Chief's frown deepened. They looked like two old dragons, their faces so gloomy that it seemed like rain was going to fall in the operating room at any second.
On the operating table, the two people who were operating tried again but still failed.
They raised their heads and looked out of the window through the lead-lined glass. Their eyes were filled with disappointment and...despair.
They shook their heads gently, making the atmosphere even more intense.
Medical treatment had its particularities, and mistakes were not allowed.
However, the main controller of medical treatment was only human, so there would definitely be mistakes.
This had always been the paradox since ancient times.
Ordinary, small mistakes were nothing much. Even when the knife, scissors, and gauze were accidentally left in the patient's body, this was something that was always heard from time to time.
These were all small mistakes.
Once a big mistake appeared, it would cause the patient to die.
For example, the surgery in front of him.
"Little Wang can't do it." A person sat on a chair and stared at the LCD screen. He said in a deep voice, "Old Liu, go and try it."
Professor Liu was a little unwilling but after hesitating for a moment, he still put on his lead apron and went up to the operating stage. How could one just let something like this happen without trying their best and regretting it for the rest of their life?
At this moment, he was going to try his best to save the sur
gery, regardless of whether it succeeded or not. In the future, if something happened to him, he did not expect anyone to save him. As long as he did not add insult to injury, he would be fine.
"This is the medical service department's Chief," Gao Shaojie introduced Zheng Ren in a low voice.
Zheng Ren nodded. His arms were crossed, his right hand supporting his cheek. He was closely examining the surgical image.
Professor Liu brought his assistant and replaced the surgeon and assistant on the stage.
The surgeon walked into the operating room and did not say anything. He squatted down, leaned his back against the wall, and buried his head.
The assistant took off his lead apron. His entire body was drenched in sweat. He was tired and nervous.
He looked dejected and stood beside the Medical Service Chief like a student who had made a mistake.
He wanted to argue but could not say a word.
The Medical Affairs Department Chief did not even look at him. He stared at the LCD screen and said calmly, "Chief Chen, if Chief Liu can't take it out, you can scrub your hands and perform the operation."
The vascular department's Chief who had been staring at the operating table sighed and said, "The chances of the wire being taken out successfully is so slim."
"I know."
"I need to talk to the patient's family first and give them an explanation before the operation," said Chief Chen of the Academic Affairs Department.
"If Chief Liu can't take it out, let's go together," said the Medical Affairs Department Chief.
There was no other way.
Before the guide wire entered the coronary and cerebral artery, they had to settle it as best as they could.
If they really could not get out of the situation, they would have already done their best.
As for the future... Everyone present was a veteran doctor. Who could not possibly know what this meant?
Professor Liu's standard was one of the best in the Department of Interventional Medicine. If he could not do it, the same results would be garnered if Gao Shaojie went up instead.
The atmosphere in the operating room seemed to have frozen over. It felt difficult to even breathe.
No one complained. Everyone had a complicated expression on their faces. In the end, they all looked at the LCD screen.
Failure!
Failure!
Fail!
Half an hour had passed, and Professor Liu had tried six times, all in vain.
The Medical Department Chief was helpless as he stood up and said, "Old Chen, let's go. We need to go and explain the operation."
"Teacher Gao, can I try?"
Chapter 489 - Worse Comes To Worst, There’s Surgery
"Teacher Gao, can I try?" Zheng Ren asked softly beside Gao Shaojie.
The entire operating room was filled with failure and frustration.
No one said a word. It was extremely quiet that even the sound of a heartbeat seemed like it would disappear into nothingness.
Although Zheng Ren's voice was soft, it was exceptionally ear-piercing in such a quiet place.
Gao Shaojie's heart tightened. The thing he was most afraid of had finally come.
The guide wire had fallen into the blood vessels. Because its surface was extremely smooth, the chances of it being removed were very small. The vast majority of patients had to participate in vascular surgery. The chances of success were less than 50%, maybe even less than 10%.
The best way was of course to use the interventional methods to remove the guide wire.
However, the interventional doctors from the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University had all tried. They failed, shame etched on their faces.
Teacher Zheng said he wanted to try... However, he did not have the qualification and practice in this field. To perform a freelance surgery and register it under the medical department was something that only the related surgical department could do.
This kind of matter was neither big nor small. If someone caught him doing the surgery, it would be hard to explain.
The other people in the room looked at Zheng Ren in surprise.
He wanted to try it?
Who was he!
The Medical Service Chief looked at Zheng Ren from the corner of his eyes with dissatisfaction. After that, he looked at Gao Shaojie and said, "Chief Gao, this is..."
"Chief Lin, this is Teacher Zheng whom I invited to do TIPS surgery." Gao Shaojie was a little embarrassed and quickly explained the situation to him.
"Hmph!" Chief Lin snorted coldly.
"Teacher Gao, this... Can he really do TIPS surgery?" Chief Chen asked in surprise.
Because vascular surgery was both a surgical operation and an interventional surgery, they were more familiar with the surgical methods of interventional surgery.
That was why Chief Chen was surprised.
Gao Shaojie was usually very steady and did not have the reckless behavior of a newbie professor. However, it was precisely because of this that he was even more surprised.
Everyone here knew exactly how difficult TIPS surgery was.
No matter what, Gao Shaojie was a medical doctor from Columbia University Medical Center.
If he invited a professor from Columbia University Medical Center to perform TIPS surgery and called him a teacher, everyone would agree.
If he invited a professor from Imperial City or Shanghai to perform TIPS surgery, it would be reasonable.
However, why did he invite such a young man to perform the surgery and was even calling him a teacher...
Was it not embarrassing!
Gao Shaojie felt like he was sitting on pins and needles under everyone's gazes.
Hearing Chief Chen's question, Gao Shaojie sighed in his heart. However, he still said out loud, "You guys misunderstood me. I didn't invite Teacher Zheng to perform the surgery."
Chief Chen heaved a sigh of relief. It seems like he had heard wrongly.
No wonder.
"I asked Teacher Zheng to teach me how to perform TIPS surgery," Gao Shaojie faced all their gazes calmly and said this in such a serious manner.
Chief Chen, Chief Lin, and everyone else in the room was inexplicably surprised. They stared at Gao Shaojie in shock, thinking that they had misheard.
Gao Shaojie was a little uncomfortable in the face of countless astonished gazes but quickly calmed down.
Since Zheng Ren had stood up and spoken, he had to stand on Zheng Ren's side unconditionally. This was something that could not be shaken.
"This... You said you're Teacher Zheng, right? You're saying that you want to try?" Department Chief Chen really did not want to go on stage.
The failure rate of cutting open the guide wire was simply too high. Moreover, it required even more luck than TIPS surgery.
From the moment the operation was performed, one had to pray that the guide wire would not flow into the blood vessels.
Once it flowed out, he had to change the incision position. However, that meant praying that the blood would not flow, so did it not seem like a joke? He could only hope that the guide wire would be stuck on a branch of the blood vessel and would not move for the time being.
Once the guide wire moved, he would have to change the incision.
However... It would not be to the extent of cutting wounds all over the patient's body.
The surgery was extremely difficult. Even Chief Chen was not confident. There was not even one-tenth a chance of success.
"We can give it a try." Zheng Ren did not pay attention to what the people around him were doing or saying. Instead, he looked at what was being displayed on the screen, engrossed in his own thoughts.
"It's already like this and we still need a few more minutes?" Su Yun stood beside Zheng Ren and said, "To be able to push the guide wire and contrast agent into the aorta during the interventional surgery is already considered a miracle. Are you guys still willing to operate?
"Once the guide wire enters the ao
rta, no one knows what will happen next."Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-surgeon's-studio_16489637605120805/worse-comes-to-worst-there%E2%80%99s-surgery_50182158274314308 for visiting.
What Su Yun said made sense. It was simple, direct, and even a little crass.
Every word was like a slap on the face to everyone in the operating room.
Chief Lin's expression suddenly turned ugly.
It was because he did not know this person. If any doctor in the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University dared to speak to him like this, he would not allow them to live a peaceful life in the future.
"Chief Lin, why don't we let Teacher Zheng try?" Gao Shaojie voiced out and said firmly. "Teacher Zheng's standard is much higher than mine. If we can't do it, he might be able to."
Chief Lin hesitated for a moment.
"Worse comes to worst, we'll just opt for surgery." Gao Shaojie threw down the last bargaining chip.
"Alright, let's give it a try." Chief Lin sighed and said helplessly.
What Gao Shaojie and Su Yun said made sense. They were just giving it a try. What if... What if it worked?
To operate on a patient, regardless of whether it was a success or failure, would be a major medical incident. No one would want to operate on him unless they knew that they could pull it off.
However, this Teacher Zheng was far too young.
In the medical field, being young meant that one was still wet behind the ears and lacked experience. It also meant that one's technique...
He was not even thirty years old. At most, he was just an attending physician. How could he have any technique? TIPS surgery? Old Gao was just messing around!
"Teacher Zheng, sorry to trouble you," Gao Shaojie said politely to Zheng Ren.
"It's fine." Zheng Ren had a complete plan in mind. He smiled and patted Gao Shaojie's shoulder.
"Boss, I'll go with you." Su Yun glanced at the doctors around him. His eyes were full of disdain.
All the doctors in the operating room had the same thought when they saw Su Yun's eyes.
