Chapter 773: A Surgery That Silences The Viewers
Zheng Ren was being polite. ‘Professor Yang, you don’t have an operative view on your side.’
What operative view! The people standing behind Zheng Ren in the operative view also did not see the small artery under the layers of connective tissue.
Once the mine-like small artery was cut, the turbulent arterial blood would instantly cover the entire operative view, forcing the surgery to stop.
If that was the case, the bleeding would definitely have to be stopped first. Otherwise, the surgery would not have been possible.
However, stopping the bleeding was easier said than done.
The anatomical structure was already mutated. By the time the aspirator sucked all the blood and the team found the small artery hidden under the connective tissue… if one was lucky, it would be done in a few minutes. Otherwise, it was possible to search for an hour or two.
Even when the patient went into hemorrhagic shock, he might still fail to find it.
That a.s.sistant… was really amazing!
After 45 minutes and 12 seconds, the first phase of the surgery in the general surgery department ended.
The position where the liver hydatid had invaded the diaphragm had already been detached and peeled off, and the inferior vena cava appeared in the field of vision cleanly.
Next, it was time for the Department of Vascular Surgery and the Department of Thoracic Surgery to take the stage.
“Since Su Yun is here, I won’t be going on stage,” Zhao Yunlong said as he stood in the operating theater and looked at the situation on the operating table.
The operation on the chest was still ongoing. Zhao Yunlong finished the operation first and came here to a.s.sist. When he saw Zheng Ren as the a.s.sistant and the entire process of the operation, he was at a loss.
He was not going up. With Su Yun around, what was he going up for?
“Old Zhao, you have to go up.” Su Yun stood behind Zheng Ren, he said, “You’re from the thoracic department. Whether it’s the heart or anything within the chest, they fall under the thoracic department. How can the surgery be without you guys? I’m from the invasive technology department. If my boss and I were to do the surgery, that would be inappropriate procedurally.”
Zhao Yunlong cursed in his heart. Since when did Su Yun care about procedural justice?
Did his personality change?
However, Su Yun was right. Since that was the case, he had no choice but to go…
Was there a way? There was no way out at all.
He washed his hands and went on stage. Zheng Ren did not say anything. He also went to scrub his hands together.
Professor Yang helped to change the patient’s position. When he saw Zheng Ren continue to stand in the first a.s.sistant’s position after washing his hands, he was immediately stunned.
How could this be possible?
After completing the general surgery, he still wanted to perform the thoracic surgery?
Just what kind of background did this fellow have?
Originally, after completing the first stage of the surgery, he could have a few hours break to find a place to rest and recuperate.
Resuming only after the thoracic surgery and vascular surgery were done.
Previously, it was just a preparation. The final autologous liver transplant was the real show.
However, Professor Yang was very curious. He wanted to see whether Zheng Ren would simply go up and give him a hand, or whether the thoracic surgery could also be done in the same manner as before.
If it was the latter… that would be too scary.
“Boss, you’re making me very scared by being my a.s.sistant,” Su Yun pushed Zhao Yunlong aside and said with a smile.
“Stop talking nonsense and hurry up with the surgery,” Zheng Ren said. “It’s more than ten hours. Hurry up and sleep for a while.”
“You even said that you’ll sleep for three days and three nights when you come back. It’s such a strain for you to perform such a surgery right after you come back,”Su Yun nagged, but he did not delay the action of his hand.
Zhao Yunlong stood in the position of the second a.s.sistant and acted as the puppet of procedural justice, which made him feel very helpless.
In fact, the people from the cardiosurgery department who performed this kind of surgery could be considered to be somewhat related. It should normally be performed by those in the thoracic department.
However, which doctor had not taken part in this kind of surgery before?
Zhao Yunlong had seen Zheng Ren’s surgery before that, but he had only seen unconventional surgeries such as splenectomy under local anesthesia and liver suture. He had never seen Zheng Ren perform thoracic surgery.
In Nanchuan town, after the ventilator was brought over, Zheng Ren went straight into the collapsed building to perform interventional hemostasis. He rarely came up at all.
He was also curious. Zhao Yunlong did not know how good Zheng Ren’s thoracic surgery was, but he knew Su Yun’s surgical skill.
It was much better than his own by a huge margin.
Otherwise, with Su Yun’s mouth, Zhao Yunlong would not have put up with him at all.
Su Yun’s surgical skills were great. So what if he was a little sarcastic? He had to admit that there was a gap between them.
This little boss of Su Yun’s… He was probably a big shot in the thoracic surgery department. Otherwise, Su Yun would not be willing to be an a.s.sistant by his side.
He was only an a.s.sistant, so he probably would not be able to see anything, Zhao Yunlong a.s.sumed.
As soon as the surgery started, Zhao Yunlong knew that he was wrong.
Su Yun’s technique was dazzling.
He performed the surgery well and even showed off his skills. With just a glance, one knew that this person was really awesome. However, after watching for a few minutes, Zhao Yunlong knew in his heart that boss Zheng’s surgery was even better than Su Yun’s!
With Su Yun, Zheng Ren did not need to be as polite as with Professor Yang.
After the thoracotomy, Zheng Ren unknowingly took over the responsibility of being the surgeon. Although he was standing in the position of the first a.s.sistant, he was basically the one performing the surgery.
All kinds of blunt dissection. The technique was simple, but it was also extremely practical. The speed of his hands were not fast. It was rigid, and it even gave people a feeling of stiffness.
However, every time at the right time, the right position, and the precise operation, it made an extremely complicated surgery much simpler.
‘He’s really a monster,’ Zhao Yunlong thought to himself.
‘Su Yun’s vision is indeed good enough,’ Zhao Yunlong thought to himself. Moreover, he was thick-skinned enough. If he were to meet Zheng Ren, he might not be able to bring himself to stick by his side as an a.s.sistant.
However, Su Yun was able to do it, and he was even willing to do it.
That was the gap…
Zheng Ren and Su Yun were performing the surgery, and Zhao Yunlong was basically a puppet. He looked at the surgery in a daze, and a strange thought suddenly arose in his mind—could it be that Su Yun had already noticed that there was such a big difference?
If that was the case, then his hypothesis was not valid at all. Compared to Su Yun, his level and vision was much worse.
Zhao Yunlong was silent.
That was a surgery that silences the viewers.
More and more people watched from the viewing platform, and that flat-chested patient also rushed over one after another.
When they saw the surgical staff allocation, they were a little surprised. It was possible that none of the people standing here were rookies. On their own, any one of them would be able to perform surgeries. One of them would cost 20,000 RMB, and they would not accept any offers of less than five surgeries.
That was how amazing they were!
In the eyes of this group of awesome people, it was obvious how difficult the surgery was.
Although the surgery did not seem that difficult under the knife, scissors, and pliers, it was because of the surgeon’s skills.
Everyone watched the surgery in silence. Those who came late and did not have a proper view took their footstools and stood behind them to watch.
The a.s.sistant standing in the position of the surgeon was dazzling, but it couldn’t hide the clumsiness of the surgeon standing in the position of the a.s.sistant.
The anesthesiologist used one-chamber ventilation, and the right lung collapsed. The right lung dissociated the diaphragm and broke down the adhesion, bit by bit from the chest to the abdomen, slowly but firmly, without the slightest hesitation.
Liver hydatid pa.s.sed through the diaphragm, and the middle and lower lobes of the right lung were full.
However, the surgeon would always find the right gap to dissociate and cut. Although 60% of the tissue in the middle and lower lobes of the right lung was cut off, a part of the lung was still preserved, and the lung’s function would not be seriously damaged in the future.
