Chapter 781: Thank You, Professor Zhao
s.h.i.+ft change, then surgery. This was a fixed procedure.
Professor Zhao only had one interventional surgery for liver cancer today. After he was done, he changed his clothes and went straight to the General Surgery Department.
The patient with hepatic hydatid disease and portal hypertension yesterday–he wanted to see with his own eyes how he was doing now.
To Professor Zhao’s knowledge, there was no way to treat this disease.
He had seen the radiographic films. Just like what he had told his lover last night, the patient’s illness was beyond cure.
He wanted to see if Zheng Ren had really done something when he was young and impetuous.
If that was the case… In an instant, countless possibilities appeared in Professor Zhao’s heart.
A smile hung at the corner of his mouth.
When he came to the General Surgery Department, the patient in the resuscitation room was not a girl with hepatic hydatid disease. Professor Zhao was even more convinced of his own thoughts. He reckoned that the patient had died before he could be resuscitated.
“Little Dong, where is Old Yang?” Seeing that Chairman Dong was there, Professor Zhao asked.
“Professor Zhao, Professor Yang went to the ICU,” Dong Jia answered in a hurry.
“Is there a serious illness?”
“It’s the patient with liver hydatid disease from yesterday.” After Dong Jia finished speaking, he was about to go to work. Professor Yang had been squatting in the ICU since he left the stage to oversee the serious illness. Dong Jia was the only person in charge, so he was extremely busy.
Professor Zhao’s heart trembled. Was the patient still alive?
Impossible!
He must be using a ventilator in the ICU to maintain his life, but if he didn’t solve the actual problem, how long could the ventilator last?
“Professor Zhao, you go ahead. I still have something to do here.” Dong Jia said goodbye and was about to leave.
Professor Zhao was full of doubts. He pulled Dong Jia and asked, “Did you manage to save him yesterday?”
Dong Jia’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot, but he had to answer Professor Zhao’s question. Even if they did not talk about skill level, the leading group of professors in the Intervention Department would not care about him. However, he had asked Chief Zheng for help yesterday. This was a favor.
“I still have to thank you for your help,” Dong Jia said honestly. “Yesterday, after the cooperation of four departments, the operation lasted for seven and a half hours and was finally successful.”
“The operation was successful?” Professor Zhao was stunned.
“Yes, the last autologous liver transplant. I went to take a look this morning. The patient’s condition is much better. I estimate that he can be extubated within three days.” Dong Jia squeezed out a smile. Looking at the messy ward, his heart was burning with anxiety.
“Why are you thanking me for my help?” Professor Zhao asked in surprise.
“We didn’t know about the surgery that Chief Zheng performed. If it weren’t for your reminder, who would have known that Chief Zheng from the Department of Interventional Medicine actually came from the General Surgery Department.
“That surgery was really beautiful!” Dong Jia said about the surgery that lasted from last night until early this morning. He was beaming with joy.
“…” Professor Zhao was stunned.
“In the end, the capillary bile duct was anastomosed with a neurosurgery microscope. I went to take a look this morning. There was almost no bile duct drawn out from the drainage bag, and there wasn’t much blood.”
“…”
“Professor Yang was regretting it over there. He said that a video recording of yesterday’s surgery was done, and that he could use it as a demonstration surgery in the future. There were really not many people who could achieve such a level of self-liver transplantation. Anyway, Professor Yang said that he definitely could not do it.
“That was the most difficult surgery in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic surgery, the most difficult surgery!”
“…” Professor Zhao was speechless. As he watched Dong Jia describe the surgery last night with elation, every word he said was like a slap to his face.
There was no problem with the diagnosis, but the disease that he thought could not be treated was solved by Zheng Ren?!
This was a problem of skill.
“Um… Professor Zhao, I have to go do my work first. My side is really busy. The patient is stable. Professor Yang said that he would come back for the surgery at noon. My side…” Dong Jia repeatedly begged for mercy.
Professor Zhao nodded and walked out of the General Surgery Department in a daze.
Finished? Recovered well?
Autologous liver transplantation?
Chief Zheng, a doctor from the Interventional Department, did it?
In the past, Professor Zhao had heard that this Chief Zheng had a background in the General Surgery Department. His a.s.sistant had a background in the Thoracic Surgery Department.
But he did not take it seriously.
It was not unheard of for doctors to cross professions and make great achievements in the end.
‘But…you could already do an autogenous liver transplant, so why did you come to the Interventional Department?!’
He was a little absent-minded, so he subconsciously walked all the way to the ICU. He did not even take the elevator, but walked through the fire escape instead.
When he came back to his senses, he saw that he was standing at the entrance of the ICU.
This… Professor Zhao smiled awkwardly. Since he was already here, he should go in and take a look.
When he walked into the ICU, Professor Zhao immediately saw the patient with liver hydatid disease from yesterday. Professor Yang was sitting by the bed. He looked a little tired.
Seeing him come in, Professor Yang immediately stood up and walked over with a smile on his face.
Professor Zhao was stunned for a moment.
“Old Zhao, thank you!” Professor Yang patted his shoulder hard and said.
“Uh… you’re welcome,” Professor Zhao responded in a daze.
“If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have known that Little Chief Zheng could perform general surgery.” Professor Yang was very excited. He pulled Professor Zhao’s arm and walked to the patient’s bed, “Look, his vital signs are basically stable. The pressure in his airway isn’t too high, and the amount of drainage is even less.”
“…” Professor Zhao cursed in his heart. What was he trying to show off to him?
However, looking at Professor Yang’s excited expression, he knew that this person did not mean to slap his face, but was sincerely expressing his grat.i.tude.
“Little Zheng’s surgery was really awesome. Yesterday, I was a surgeon, and he was my a.s.sistant. When I performed the surgery, I felt like I was flying!” Professor Yang said sincerely as he recalled the exhilaration of the first half of the surgery yesterday.
‘Show-off… You continue to show off to me.’ Professor Zhao was in a low mood.
“Look at the drainage…” Professor Yang did not notice that the smile on his colleague’s face was very awkward. He pulled him to look at the abdominal drainage bag.
“Almost no bile drainage. Old Zhao, do you know what it means? This is an autogenous liver transplant. The most difficult part of this kind of surgery is the large amount of bile secretion after the surgery, resulting in the patient…”
Professor Yang nagged excitedly, expressing his grat.i.tude.
However, seeing with his own eyes that the patient’s vital signs had already recovered after he judged that the patient’s illness was incurable and could not be saved by medicine or surgery, Professor Zhao did not listen to a single word.
His mood was a little strange.
It was certainly good that the patient could be saved, but Chief Little Zheng…
“You can’t say that. It’s everyone’s credit that the four departments worked together to perform the surgery,” Professor Zhao quickly interrupted and said.
“Old Zhao, you shouldn’t be so humble.” Professor Yang thought he was being polite. He smiled and said, “The surgery for urology was indeed done by themselves, but Little Zheng’s a.s.sistant said that the Department of Interventional Medicine will be responsible for the embolization and hemostasis if anything happens after the kidney segment is cut.
“And the surgeries outside the chest and blood vessels were all performed by Chief Zheng’s a.s.sistant.
“Not to mention our general surgery.”
“…” Professor Zhao continued to be speechless.
“Thank you, thank you!” Professor Yang was so busy that he did not notice the change in Professor Zhao’s expression. “I’ll treat you to a meal some other day. I’m going onstage.”
