"Li Jianguo, it's me."
"Huh? Hurry up and return home!"
"I'm not coming back for the time being. Tell Teacher Li and Teacher Liu to prepare the patients who need TIPS surgery."
"I'll make a call on that side. You leave the medical records."
"No bargaining. This matter is very important!"
With that, Gao Shaojie hung up. After pondering for a moment, he began to contact the two professors who had a good relationship with the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University.
Gao Shaojie really humbled himself. In order to stay in Sea City General Hospital to watch a prostate embolism surgery, he had promised a lot. He half-jokingly and half-seriously asked his two colleagues to help him find a few patients who needed TIPS surgery.
Wang Qiang stood to the side, looking at Gao Shaojie in a daze.
Was Teacher Gao crazy? Why was he making so many promises? Moreover, he only wanted to watch a prostate interventional embolization surgery that he would probably never do in his entire life.
Seeing Wang Qiang's confused look, Gao Shaojie sighed and patted his shoulder. He had a thousand words in his heart but when it came to talking, he could not say a word.
Some things could only be understood when one stood at a certain height.
Wang Qiang did know how to perform interventional surgery.
However, in Gao Shaojie's opinion, he only knew the motions. Wang Qiang might not be able to perform surgeries that were slightly more difficult.
This was also the general attitude of all interventional doctors in the country. After all, only twenty years had passed since the introduction of interventional treatment into China.
There was not an acc.u.mulation of experiences and techniques across generations.
He did not expect that a weirdo like Zheng Ren would appear so quickly! He was a beast!
There were some things that even if he told Wang Qiang, he would not understand.
Wang Qiang was stunned for a moment. He could not understand the meaning behind Gao Shaojie's sigh and pat on his shoulder.
"Teacher Gao, how many more days do you want to stay here?" The two of them faced each other and did not speak. It was awkward. Wang Qiang held his words in for a few seconds before speaking up.
"I'll leave after seeing the prostate interventional embolization." Gao Shaojie put his phone away and turned around to walk toward the emergency ward.
"Can it really be embolized? Teacher Gao, I've never heard of such a thing." Wang Qiang voiced out the doubts in his heart.
"In the past, there was no such surgical method," Gao Shaojie said. "The prostatic supply vessels and the effect of prostate artery embolization are similar to non-embolizing. It mainly relies on the capillaries to maintain the hyperplasia of the prostate tissue. A while ago, there was some scientific research in the Capital. It was said to have solved this difficult problem."
"Ah?"
"I was focused on the various interventional treatments for the liver, so I wasn't really interested in the prostate and didn't pay attention. I only heard that it was done by a doctor in a small hospital." Gao Shaojie's voice became erratic.
Wang Qiang felt goosebumps on his back.
Gao Shaojie's tone seemed to be hinting at something.
Wang Qiang knew what he was hinting at. But...was this true?
A brand-new interventional procedure was actually performed by a Chief Resident from Sea City General Hospital's emergency department?!
Chapter 456 - The Disappointment and Excitement After The Dimensional Reduction Blow
At Sea City General Hospital, the TIPS surgery had been successfully completed.
Zheng Ren was preparing the foreign patient who had came into Asia for surgery to undergo prostate interventional embolization.
On the other side of the world in the Mayo Clinic, Mu Tao was holding hiscell phone in a daze.
He had been maintaining this posture for several hours, with no signs that he would move.
Like a postmodernist statue, Mu Tao stared at his phone in a daze.
The live broadcast of the surgery had long finished. Many doctors went offline one after another.
Those who could understand the surgery...were none.
Those who knew how TIPS surgery was performed expressed their confusion and admiration for the surgeons in the live broadcast room.
Those who did not know about TIPS surgery would be completely lost. From the late stage of cirrhosis to the gradual disappearance of the portal azygos devascularization operation. From the beginning when the endoscope first appeared, it took eight hours to perform a tumor operation. Until now, this was how almost all endoscope surgeries had been performed.
The development of technology and techniques had changed the environment for surgeons.
Especially with the construction of high-speed trains and the increase in the number of airports, it had shortened the distance between small and medium-sized cities in the country, provincial cities, the Capital, and Shanghai.
Now, it was difficult to be a doctor in a minor hospital, especially as a surgeon.
Twenty years ago, there were countless patients in every city who could be used as practice and allow a surgeon to hone their skills as a primary surgeon.
Now however...
Those who could receive minimally invasive treatment with a chance of survival would usually opt for that. The old chief physicians who had poor eyesight gradually lost their surgeries.
The doctors in the surgical broadcast room recalled their poast. Back then, when they performed portal vein devascularization surgery, it was considered a major surgery. They thought about how much blood one would lose and how difficult it was to recover after the surgery. All of this was vivid in everyone's mind.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-surgeon's-studio_16489637605120805/the-disappointment-and-excitement-after-the-dimensional-reduction-blow_49978139257928659 for visiting.
But now, a single TIPS surgery could actually be done so quickly?
In the past, all kinds of complications after TIPS surgery were difficult to resolve, especially hepatic encephalopathy. The mortality rate after surgery was even higher than portal-azygos vein devascularization surgery. Many people thought that there was no need for TIPS surgery at all.
But now, it took less than half an hour to conduct one TIPS surgery!
Even if it was appendicitis, one TIPS surgery in half an hour could be considered to be at the level of an attending physician.
What the f*ck!
It was like an unending banquet.
The live broadcast room was bustling with discussions. The doctors who knew or did not know about the TIPS surgery chatted idly, sighed emotionally before they finally dispersed.
Only Mu Tao, who knew the most about TIPS surgery and had fought hard for it, was left alone in a room in a foreign land. He felt cold and alone.
He felt a chill all over his body. It was an indescribable fear.
Mu Tao had been a top student since he was young. He was also considered the cream of the crop. He had always been the one who looked down on the other students, the common folk.
However, this TIPS surgery had made Mu Tao lose all sense of superiority.
Even in the Imperial City, he had never been so afraid and fearful before. This was also the case when he had been defeated by a young doctor from Sea City and lost the qualification to perform a prostate interventional embolization.
Initially, after seeing the medical standards of Mayo Clinic, Mu Tao felt that this was the best anyone could get. After five years of hard work, he should be able to get close to or even surpass the standards of Mayo Clinic.
Of course, he could only reach the current standard upheld by Mayo Clinic now.
After all, there were countles
s smart people who were researching new technologies here. Every new technique did not lack patients needed to receive treatment.
In a few years, Mu Tao was not sure how Mayo Clinic would be able to perfect the TIPS surgery.
However, in less than a few years...
The surgeons in the live broadcast room had long condensed the complexities of TIPS surgery into looking like a common surgical method. This kind of dimensional reduction was absolutely revolutionary!
In less than half an hour, the punctures were casually completed without any difficulties.
It was the casualness of it all that made Mu Tao shudder.
It was not the advancement in equipment and technology, but rather an advancement of concept and methods.
Mu Tao, who was originally full of ambition and energy, was prepared to work hard in Mayo Clinic for half a year. Recalling this made all his efforts seem in vain.
Even if he learned it himself and surpassed Mayo Clinic five years later, a brand new technique would probably emerge.
What should he do then?
Mu Tao was helpless.
..
At Horqin Right Middle Banner of Inner Mongolia, the intervention doctor was extremely excited.
He held the phone in his hand. A flame was burning in his c.h.e.s.t, practically engulfing him.
He would be returning all the medical equipment he had requested for today.
With his connections in Horqin Right Middle Banner of Inner Mongolia, to be able to borrow proper equipment was already a feat in itself.
It would not take long.
Early this morning, he was wiping the dust off the machine to make it look brand-new. When he went to return it, a notification tone began to blare from his phone's speakers.
This was something he had specially set up.
This specific ringtone would cause his adrenaline and dopamine to surge whenever it sounded.
The surgery's live broadcast room was live!
The interventional doctor quickly turned on his cell phone and set up the professional camera equipment. He prayed in his heart.
It had to be an interventional surgery. It had to be.
God did not disappoint those who were willing!
It was an interventional surgery and the most difficult of all the interventional surgeries, the TIPS surgery!
The interventional doctor recorded the entire TIPS surgery's procedures. He also noticed that in the patient's medical profile, in addition to the usual information, there was also the liver's diffusion-weighted MRI.
A diffusion-weighted MRI of the liver?
Could this be an important thing for the surgery?
To be honest, the interventional doctor could not comprehend how the surgeons in the surgery's live broadcast room completed the TIPS surgery.
Everyone who said the surgeon was relying on luck to complete the surgery did not realize he was making it look as easy as cutting a subcutaneous lipoma.
This level of skill was not something that the interventional doctor could understand.
He was lucky enough to record the entire process. There were screenshots of the patient's information before the surgery.
As if he was holding the world's most precious treasure, the interventional doctor began to study it.
In the hospital, he was an exception.
But he did not give up on himself. He just went with the flow.
He was still trying hard to better himself but did not know where to start.
The surgery live broadcast room gave him the solution. The interventional medicine doctor was determined to move in this direction, no matter how difficult or far it was.
He also knew that he would never be able to reach the level of the surgeon in the surgery live broadcast room. However, that was unimportant.
He had never thought of comparing himself to anyone. He only wanted to learn and master more knowledge and surgical methods.
A few days ago, the patient with lower gastrointestinal bleeding had been transferred out of the ICU. He had recovered and was discharged from the hospital. This was the best recognition for him!
Once there was one, there would be a second time.
The interventional doctor threw the equipment aside. He did not have the time to return the equipment at all as he began to study the TIPS surgery.
Chapter 457 - Standard Procedure
Returning to the emergency ward, Zheng Ren brought up the patient's 64-slice CT scan with 3D-image reconstruction films on the computer and started to look at them frame by frame.
The truth was that Zheng Ren did not need to look at them in such detail anymore. However, Professor Rudolf Wagner and Gao Shaojie were by his side. They had a million questions in their hearts, so he still had to explain it to them.
The emergency ward's office was suddenly felt like a university campus.
Zheng Ren was like an old professor who sat in the middle of the room. Next to him was a professor from Heidelberg University and a professor from The First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University.
The two took turns to ask questions, arguing and mocking each other.
At the moment, they only cared about discussing the patient's condition. There was no care for formalities or academic status.
Although Chang Yue was very unhappy with this kind of argument happening in front of her, she could only accommodate it and go to the ward to inform the patient's family.
Su Yun sat at the back, holding his phone in his hands. From time to time, he would raise his head and glance at the scans.
While they were discussing, Zheng Ren's cellphone rang.
"Chief Physician Pan, what's the matter?"
"Okay, I'm in the ward. You can let the patient come in."
After saying that, Zheng Ren hung up.
"Which patient is this?" Su Yun raised his head and asked.
"Appendicitis," Zheng Ren said casually.
"Oh, then you do your thing. I'll bring Yang Lei to perform the surgery," Su Yun said. "I should be able to handle it without you."
It was only an appendicitis. Su Yun's skills were enough. There was no need for Zheng Ren to be there.
Moreover, there were two people staring at the computer screen. Zheng Ren would not be able to leave even if he wanted to.
However, this patient was a call from Chief Physician Pan. Someone must have informed him about the incident.
It was better for Zheng Ren to do the surgery as a form of respect for Chief Physician Pan. Furthermore, he could also give the patient's family an explanation.
Chief surgeons, especially those who were already famous, would face this kind of problem.
Soon, someone appeared at the door.
It was a very young woman who came in with a girl who looked around the age of eighteen to nineteen years old.
She knocked on the door and asked gently, "Is Chief Zheng here?"
"That's me." Zheng Ren stood up and left the computer, a professional smile on his face.
Professor Rudolf Wagner was a little annoyed and thought that Zheng Ren was wasting his talents. However, he did not dare complain to Zheng Ren. Subconsciously, the professor had already regarded Zheng Ren as his superior.
Although this feeling had not appeared for many years, it was almost forgotten by Professor Rudolf Wagner to the banks of the Danube River.
"Hello, Doctor Zheng. Chief Physician Pan asked me to come over." The young woman was graceful, gentle, and elegant, warming people's hearts at the sight of her.
Her actual age should be much older than she looked. Her daughter was already eighteen or nineteen years old, while she herself looked like she was only in her early 30s.
The mother and daughter duo looked like each other's siblings.
The girl behind her was holding her stomach with one hand and her cell phone with the other.
Zheng Ren nodded and said, "You should head to the pharmacy first. I'll do a physical examination..."
&nbs
p; As he spoke, Zheng Ren prepared to start the physical examination.
"There's no need for that. Here are the test results." The young woman did not notice Zheng Ren's expression and actions. She smiled slightly and took out a stack of test results from her handbag.
"The preoperative examination has been done. Everything that needs to be done has already been settled," the young woman continued.
Zheng Ren frowned. He took the test results from the young woman's hand and flipped through them.
The fact was that this was just a process. The System's panel in the upper right corner of Zheng Ren's vision had already marked the patient's condition. It was a fallopian tube pregnancy.
Clinically, it was referred to as an ectopic pregnancy.
Eggs in the uterus beyond their usual position usually caused abnormal pregnancy growths. Also known as 'ectopic pregnancy', it was more commonly known as tubal pregnancy.
The cause is often due to the tubal cavity or surrounding inflammation, causing the lumen to not be smooth and hindering the normal operation of fertile eggs, causing it to go into the tubal, implantation and development happening there that resulted in tubal pregnancy miscarriages or ruptures. During the miscarriage or rupture, there were often no obvious symptoms beforehand. There only might have been menopause symptoms, abdominal pain, or slight v.a.g.i.n.a.l bleeding.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-surgeon's-studio_16489637605120805/standard-procedure_49978140616880066 for visiting.
Once the tubal ruptured and bled, it could cause other complications that would lead to the patient's death.
The biggest headache was the right tubal pregnancy pain and the location of the Myers point was relatively close to the women's acute appendicitis to exclude the possibility of ectopic pregnancy.
This little patient...
Zheng Ren's brain was working at high speed. He was figuring out all the possibilities in explaining the patient's condition to her family.
"Su Yun, come here for a while," Zheng Ren said.
