Chapter 602: Don’t shrug your shoulders!
Chen Cang watched as Doctor Wang walked out of the examination room with an ashen face, looking completely out of sorts, and was immediately dumbfounded.
"Doctor Wang... what’s wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Just as Doctor Wang was about to speak, he sighed helplessly after glancing at the staff member beside him.
"Doctor Chen, it’s nothing, I’m just a bit stressed, nothing else!"
Indeed!
Throughout the entire surgery, he felt uncomfortable all over, as if ants were crawling on him, itching everywhere!
As a result, although the surgery was completed by the book, it felt terrible!
Who knows if the examiners had gone mad or what?
They had all actually entered the examination room.
He really wanted to ask, what if the examiners violate the examination record? Does that count as a violation...
After thinking it over, he decided to let it be... after all, there was no way he could advance to the next level.
Just at that moment, a staff member came out from the examination room, holding a few pieces of paper, and found him, saying with a smile, "These are all the evaluations and suggestions from the examiners for you."
Upon opening them, Doctor Wang’s hands trembled with excitement!
It was worth it!
All worth it!
Receiving suggestions from these dozens of examiners, where else could you get such high-class treatment?
At this thought, he suddenly felt that it didn’t matter if his score was low.
If only he had shown more flaws!
Alas...
However, as soon as Doctor Wang opened the paper, he saw the chief examiner’s comment with Sun Gaoxing’s signature that read, "Do not tremble your shoulders during surgery!"
Upon seeing it, he was suddenly on the verge of tears!
I didn’t want to tremble either...
Chen Cang was about to step forward when Doctor Wang suddenly called him, "Doctor Chen!" @@novelbin@@
Chen Cang turned around, "What’s the matter?"
Doctor Wang looked helplessly at the staff member beside him and said, "Don’t be nervous... and also, don’t tremble your shoulders!" Stay tuned with NovelBin.Côm
Chen Cang was puzzled and took a strange look at Doctor Wang before walking into the examination room.
After entering, he was momentarily stunned!
With dozens of eyes staring at him, Chen Cang was immediately taken aback.
Awkwardly, he said, "Greetings to all the examiners!"
Sun Gaoxing said with a smile, "Hmm, Doctor Chen, there’s something I want to ask you before the exam, that is, have you thought of a name for that new Gott shunt technique this morning?"
Chen Cang was speechless, why would you care so much about the name?
At that moment, Sun Gaoxing seemed to have noticed Chen Cang’s confusion and explained, "The thing is, the video of today’s surgery will be released on the official website, and many people will see your flawless surgery video. Therefore, your surgery, as well as the new technique, will be seen by many."
"The professors and experts believe that this technique is certainly worth publishing in a good paper, and they all suggest you publish an article as soon as possible, so as not to become a tool for profiteers!"
The remark left Chen Cang dumbfounded, and amidst his bewilderment, his heart also swelled with gratefulness, knowing they said this for his own good.
To be honest, he had always lacked a precise understanding of intellectual property, but now the professors’ words were a wake-up call for Chen Cang.
Thinking of this, Chen Cang quickly bowed in thanks.
With a smile, Sun Gaoxing said, "Alright, let’s prepare to commence the surgery!"
Chen Cang nodded and began the upcoming surgery.
Chen Cang looked at the many expert professors and didn’t show any sign of stage fright.
After all… Chen Cang was quite experienced and knowledgeable!
In performing hepatobiliary surgery, even Zhou Hongguang, the chairman of the Hepatobiliary Surgery department and an esteemed academician, had assisted him.
In performing hand surgery, he was even observed by a crowd of the "Four Young Masters."
This was a mere trifle for him, easy as pie!
A pseudoaneurysm is actually when the inner lining of the vessel tears and blood fills the space, forming a tumor-like thing.
If it progresses a bit more seriously, it can turn into an aortic dissection, and thus this kind of surgery must be dealt with urgently.
This particular surgery happened to be on the ascending aorta, so Chen Cang dealt with it quite adeptly!
Over the years, with the development of endovascular stent-grafting, the surgery for traumatic pseudoaneurysms has been gradually replaced by this kind of minimally invasive intervention.
Similarly, in cardiac surgery this has a drawback, which is a high risk of spinal cord injury, so people tend to favor stent surgery.
The surgery went very smoothly.
After it ended, suddenly an expert asked, "Young Chen, what do you think about surgical and interventional treatments for pseudoaneurysms?"
With that question, the room suddenly fell silent.
This question was really not easy to answer!
Everyone present was a cardiac surgeon, but intervention had already become mainstream.
This technique was also in the process of being phased out.
However, for a cardiac surgeon, surgical repair is a permanent fix, while stent intervention is ultimately xenogenic.
Therefore, the older generation of surgeons still advocates for surgical treatment!
Chen Cang thought it over and over, feeling that if he praised intervention, he would definitely be unwelcome, but the advantages of intervention were very obvious!
This was beyond doubt.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so vigorously developed now; the advent of intervention reduced surgery risks, and even junior doctors could perform major surgeries!
There’s no need for a major upheaval, and the patient’s recovery is much quicker.
Chen Cang then said, "Actually, as a cardiac surgeon, I don’t have a profound understanding of intervention, but I know surgery better, let me share my own opinion."
"The gradual replacement of pseudoaneurysm surgery by intervention is due to the high risk of surgical operations!
The major risk area is when dissecting a hematoma in the mediastinum, where the proximal aorta is generally obscured by the hematoma, and it can rupture and cause massive bleeding at any time during separation."
After these words were spoken, the experts all nodded in agreement.
The statement was correct, but… it wasn’t pleasing to the ear!
Indeed, Chen Cang’s words were clearly pointing out the downsides of cardiac surgery.
But just then, Chen Cang continued, "So! If we can reduce the risk of this type of surgery and increase the safety of pseudoaneurysm operations, couldn’t we compensate for our shortcomings?"
At this point, everyone’s eyes lit up!
Indeed!
We might not be able to reduce the advantages of the other side, but we can make up for our own shortcomings!
Chen Cang then walked over to the operation table, started working on the simulator, and said, "Everyone, look, when dissecting the proximal vessels, could we do this?
First, free the left common carotid artery and the aortic arch between the left carotid and left subclavian arteries, using tourniquets to control bleeding...
Then dissect and separate underneath the hematoma, and control the distal blood flow of the descending aorta with tourniquets!
Lastly, deal with the hematoma to ensure safety.
By doing this, wouldn’t the difficulty of our surgery be reduced! And the risk factor lowered as well!"
As soon as Chen Cang finished speaking, those around him immediately furrowed their brows, as Chen Cang’s words clearly deviated from the guidelines!
What do you think?
