The Surgeon's Studio - Chapter 919
Chapter 919: Junior Doctor from Pengxi Village
‘Uh…’
Liu Xuzhi was stunned for a moment. In a daze, he had returned to Pengxi Village Hospital.
Su Yun called for him to perform a surgery. At this time, Mu Tao should have been exhausted like a dog. He was lying on the sofa, snoring.
“Brother… Brother Yun…” Although Liu Xuzhi was in his forties, under Su Yun’s coercion, he was still more used to calling him Brother Yun. However, he had not called him Brother Yun for a long time. At this moment, in front of so many people, the shame in the depths of his heart instantly exploded.
“Stand closer. You’re so far away. Can you see the radiographic films?” Su Yun waved his hand. He did not seem to be surprised by Liu Xuzhi’s arrival, as if it was supposed to be like this.
“Can you understand the radiographic films?” Su Yun asked directly.
“I don’t really understand. I already understand the most basic things,” Liu Xuzhi replied cautiously, afraid that he would say the wrong thing and attract a round of verbal attacks.
“Here, take the 3D model of the liver and tell me which point you would choose if you were to perform the TIPS surgery,” Su Yun asked.
This was so simple.
Liu Xuzhi placed the suitcase not far behind him and looked around carefully. He felt that one place was considered safe. He picked up the 3D model and pointed at a portal vein. “Puncture here. The needle goes up diagonally and enters the hepatic vein.”
“Where does this position appear on the radiographic films?” Su Yun asked again.
With the model in hand, anyone with a little medical knowledge would be able to determine the location of the puncture point.
The difficulty lay in how to find the spot on the radiographic films and restore it to an X-ray plane map. It was good to accurately find and perform the puncture during the surgery.
TIPS surgery, to put it bluntly, was just that simple.
But it was only as simple as it looked, and it was extremely difficult to get started. TIPS surgery had been around for decades, and the mortality rate of the surgery had always been around 10%.
One out of ten patients died, and the mortality rate was already extremely high.
It was precisely because of this that many doctors in the Interventional Department did not even dare to try. One out of every ten patients died. According to the small probability, the family members of every ten patients who died would not approve of it, and they would complain or even cause trouble.
A hundred surgeries could possibly end one’s career as a doctor.
The reason why the TIPS surgery could not be carried out was because of this reason.
Liu Xuzhi looked at the radiographic films in a daze. His shoulders moved slightly, and he wanted to raise his hand. However, he was a little hesitant. He wanted to put it down as soon as he raised his hand.
“Sometime today, maybe?” Su Yun scolded.
“Uh, I think it should be here.” Liu Xuzhi gathered his courage and pointed at the radiographic films with his finger.
Su Yun covered his forehead with his hand, but for some reason, the black hair on his forehead was not pressed down. It fluttered as if he had activated his taunting skill and was mocking Liu Xuzhi.
“Old Liu, this isn’t right,” Mu Tao said gently.
After a few days and nights of research and Zheng Ren’s advice, he had already crossed the threshold. The way the radiographic films looked at Mu Tao was completely different from how Liu Xuzhi looked at him.
Mu Tao took over Su Yun’s topic and began to tell Liu Xuzhi.
Although it was simple and profound, due to his basic level, many of the details that Mu Tao thought were natural to him were like a natural chasm to Liu Xuzhi.
Mu Tao was talking while Su Yun continued to add on. Occasionally, the two of them would quarrel softly over a point.
Little Oliver continued to translate while Liu Xuzhi was at a loss.
There were too many details that he did not understand. Although the 3D model solved many problems and made the whole process clear, it was still an ordeal to use dozens of minutes to make Liu Xuzhi understand clearly.
“Boss Zheng, can I borrow a surgical demonstration classroom for you?” A voice came from the door. Liu Xuzhi was stunned for a moment and turned back to look.
Zheng Ren and Chief Kong had returned. A German professor with blonde hair followed behind them.
Looking at the situation in the office, Zheng Ren was also a little distressed.
He thought for a moment and said, “Sorry to trouble you, Chief Kong.”
“What’s so troublesome about that?” Chief Kong smiled. “In the future, there will be more and more people. There will eventually be a surgical demonstration classroom. Our Intervention Department is small, so we don’t have one. However, we can borrow it from others. How can such a small matter be difficult?”
As he said this, Chief Kong took out his phone. He pondered for a moment and made up his mind.
“Boss Zheng, if I were to come back a few days later, would you know all the directors of the hospital?” Chief Kong smiled and said.
“Not at all.”
“Let’s go to Chief Miao’s. The surgical demonstration classroom in the Department of Genitourinary Surgery is the largest, and the equipment is more advanced,” Chief Kong said as he made a phone call and walked toward the director’s office.
Zheng Ren did not follow him. He saw Liu Xuzhi.
He looked familiar, but he did not know what his name was.
“Liu Xuzhi, go and greet the boss. Are you waiting for the boss to come and greet you?” Su Yun said coldly.
It sounded like he was talking to Liu Xuzhi, but in fact, Zheng Ren knew that Su Yun was reminding him of his name.
Liu Xuzhi was the young… old… Forget it. According to his skill level, he should be a junior doctor.
Zheng Ren smiled. He took two steps forward and stretched out his hand. “Long time no see.”
Liu Xuzhi sighed in his heart and quickly extended his hands to shake Zheng Ren’s.
“When did you arrive?”
“Just arrived, just arrived.” After Liu Xuzhi felt the winter-like cold in Su Yun, he was not used to Zheng Ren’s politeness.
Zheng Ren nodded and looked at Su Yun, asking, “How is it?”
Su Yun shrugged, indicating that it was not possible.
This was also within expectations. There was a huge difference in standards between people. It was extremely difficult to use a set of procedures to get everyone to accept the new diagnostic method of the TIPS surgery in a short period of time.
“Don’t be anxious. Let’s go to the surgical demonstration classroom later,” Zheng Ren said. “Ward rounds first.”
After packing up and tidying up the office, Zheng Ren led a group of people and began ward rounds.
At this moment, Zheng Ren was like a chief, with seven or eight people behind him. Some were young and old, some were Chinese, and some were foreigners. Just looking at the team made people feel like they were in a trance–this was the style of the best chief in the country.
Chang Yue held the medical records and followed Zheng Ren. Each medical record was organized neatly and held with a small clip. There was a piece of white paper on it, which was used to record Zheng Ren’s medical advice at any time.
It was originally used to hold medical records, but even if the medical record clip was not made of iron but plastic, it was still very heavy. Therefore, Chang Yue simply omitted the medical record clip and kept it for herself.
Su Yun found a white robe for Liu Xuzhi and asked him to follow behind him for the ward round.
He had performed six TIPS surgeries in the morning. The more Liu Xuzhi looked at him, the more terrified he became.
Boss Zheng’s high standard was not only reflected in the routine surgery of interventional embolization of pelvic fractures. He could even perform TIPS surgery like nothing. How capable was he!
