The Surgeon’s Studio

Chapter 427: Emergency Rescue

Gao Shaojie had done chest needle insertion before. It was not a big deal.

Three radiofrequency needles were heated at the same time. Gao Shaojie had also done this before. It was not a big deal either.

His focus was on the position of the three radiofrequency needles.

If Gao Shaojie were to operate, the position of the needles would definitely be different that of Zheng Ren’s.

Anyone could do a planar operation.

The important thing in radiofrequency ablation was avoiding large blood vessels and any sort of side-effects.

The image on the CT screen clearly told Gao Shaojie that the young surgeon did not think this was the case.

But why did he leave the needles? They were even dangerously close to each other, less than 2cm from a hepatic artery branch. Was the surgeon just unskilled?

No, that was not right. Gao Shaojie immediately dismissed this idea from his mind.

The surgeon’s skills had already been fully demonstrated in the previous TIPS surgery and liver cancer embolization surgery.

He must have had his reasons for doing this.

Just as Gao Shaojie was racking his brain, a lazy voice was heard. “Boss, you’re pretty good at stereometry.”

Stereometry?

Stereometry!

F*ck! Gao Shaojie’s mind suddenly cleared up.

The person was not performing the surgery according to the CT plane. Instead, he was performing the radiofrequency ablation according to the 64-slice CT scan with 3D-image reconstruction, using 3D imaging to assist with the surgery!

“It’s fine.” Zheng Ren walked out of the CT room. The door closed while Su Yun operated the machine to perform a flat scan.

The positions were just right. Zheng Ren smiled and said, “Prepare to start heating them up.”

These positions were chosen by Zheng Ren after careful calculations derived from the 3000 cases of surgery experience given by the System.

Su Yun’s eyes were sharp, so he could see it immediately.

Two of the needles’ positions were slightly off from the norm.

By doing this, all the tumor tissue could be killed by the radiofrequency after heating, leaving no residual lesions.

In addition to the additional attributes given by the System, the success rate of Fu Fu’s interventional surgery was + 2. Zheng Ren was very confident that Zheng Yunxia could be “cured” after this surgery.

Of course, the so-called “cured” was just removing the existing lesions. If there were new lesions in the future, they would have to be dealt with in the future.

He turned on the radiofrequency ablation machine and began to heat it up.

Zheng Yunxia lay on the diagnostic bed of the CT machine. She was very calm.

“Sister Zheng, does it hurt?” Xie Yiren went in and asked.

“It doesn’t,” Zheng Yunxia replied with a smile.

“If it hurts, just let me know and I’ll give you an injection. However, you must not move!” Xie Yiren instructed her.

“I know,” Zheng Yunxia said.

Fifteen minutes of thermal ablation felt like a lifetime.

Zheng Ren crossed his arms as he thought about the effects of radiofrequency ablation.

Suddenly, his cellphone rang!

It was the emergency department!

Zheng Ren’s heart rate soared to about 120 beats per minute.

Seriously… What did he actually have to be afraid of?

Su Yun glanced at it and picked up Zheng Ren’s cellphone, answering the call.

“Okay, got it.”

With just a response, Su Yun jumped up from the chair as if a spring had been installed within him.

“Boss, there’s an emergency treatment that needs to be done so I’ll go take a look. Don’t worry, the surgery will take some time. I’ll be right back!” After saying that, Su Yun ran away and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Gao Shaojie was speechless. Was Sea City General Hospital always this amazing? Did their technicians always take charge of emergency cases?

“Lil Fugui, I’ll check on the situation later. If everything goes well, I’ll leave the rest to you.” Zheng Ren looked up and looked at his watch. It had been almost ten minutes since the ablation started.

“Okay, boss. Just go and help him. Leave this to me. Don’t worry, I do three to five of these surgeries every day in Heidelberg,” Professor Rudolf Wagner responded.

Zheng Ren still did not relax when the professor said those words. Instead, he said in a stern tone, “Be vigilant and don’t get careless.”

“Okay, boss. Don’t worry. I won’t act Zhang Fei.”

Zheng Ren was also helpless. It was all because of Su Yun and Chang Yue that the professor had to learn a Northeastern dialect.

No matter how serious the topic was, as long as it was said in a Northeastern dialect, it would have a funny flavor.

However, it was not a big deal to let Professor Rudolf Wagner handle the follow-up surgery.

He was a world-class professor so he usually was not free to do these things either.

Other people’s days were like years, but Zheng Ren’s days seemed to stretch like years.

Su Yun left, so Zheng Ren had to handle the operating the CT machine by himself.

He took off his sterile gloves and waited for the appropriate moment to arrive.

He looked at the clock ticking second by second. After it was just shy of a minute to fifteen, Zheng Ren immediately let Xie Yiren, Chu Yanran, and Professor Rudolf Wagner settle the rest as he went to start the CT scans.

The Sea City General Hospital’s CT machine was Philips’. It was the latest model from three years ago and was quite fast.

However, Zheng Ren still felt that it was very slow.

The images appeared on the machine frame by frame. The malignant tumors on the liver that had been contrasted with the iodine oil had all died.

For the time being, there were no protein images seeping out. That was because there was not enough time.

“Success!” Zheng Ren said in a deep voice. “Lil Fugui, remove the needles. You’re in charge of what happens next. If there are any complications, call me immediately.”

After saying that, Zheng Ren rushed out. As he ran, he said, “Wait for my call. I might need to do emergency surgery! By the way, Lil Fugui, remember to burn the needle. Make sure they’re no remnants left!”

His voice moved further and further away. After saying that, Zheng Ren had already disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Gao Shaojie was dumbfounded.

It was said that doctors used women as men and women like livestock. The workload of doctors and nurses in large tertiary grade a hospitals were no less than that of Huawei’s engineers.

However, for a hospital like Sea City General Hospital to use a world-class interventional doctor as a junior doctor in the emergency department…

Was this not a f*cking waste of a gift from God.

The Emergency Department? Gao Shaojie gave it a thought before following him out.

The radiofrequency ablation surgery had already been completed. The three-dimensional ablation method was why Chief Zheng had done an x-ray after the surgery. He could go back and ponder about this later.

There was no point in staying here to see Zheng’s emergency treatment.

Gao Shaojie did not run, merely walking briskly down the corridor. He followed the signs to lead him to the emergency department.

Wang Qiang had been here so he was more familiar with the building’s layout as compared to Gao Shaojie. He followed Gao Shaojie, guiding him the rest of the way as they quickly went to the emergency department.

Just as they entered the emergency department’s corridor, the smell of blood assaulted his nostrils.

Gao Shaojie was in a daze.

How many years had it been since he had participated in such a high-intensity and high-tempo emergency treatment? The smell of blood was so strong. Was it a stab wound?

While he pondered, the sound of a stretcher trolley could be heard from the emergency room.

Zheng Ren pulled the stretcher trolley with him and yelled, “Go get the elevator!”

As he ran, Gao Shaojie stepped aside to make way for the stretcher trolley. Surprisingly, he saw the technician kneeling over the stretcher trolley, his hand in the patient’s abdomen…

This was…

He was stopping the liver rupture from bleeding out with his bare hands?!

“Prepare the hybrid operating room for emergency surgery! Hurry!” Zheng Ren’s voice came from afar, echoing in the corridor as if it were a hollow valley.
