Chapter 600: Can't We Perform Such a Simple Surgery?
Although it seemed Ji Xiang had made a misoperation, neither Lin Jiuze nor Ji Xiang stopped their movements.
Lin Jiuze seemed to retract the Thrombectomy Umbrella slightly, then began to move it slowly.
The Thrombectomy Umbrella glided along the "track" laid out by the Micro-guidewire, and the "tender" Thrombosis was nudged outward.
"Uh..." A strange sound came from Liu Zhuren's throat.
It should be possible; there was a Micro-guidewire with a diameter of a fraction of a millimeter between the Thrombectomy Umbrella and the atherosclerosis plaque, which did not provide enough force to the plaque to cause it to fall off or the vessel to avulse.
Lin Jiuze moved the Thrombectomy Umbrella bit by bit, and the Thrombosis slowly entered the Aspiration Catheter.
This part of the surgery was not shown in its entirety but had been edited, and the Thrombosis quickly entered the Aspiration Catheter. The previous "erroneous" operation had vanished, and it was unclear what technique Ji Xiang used to make the knot position disappear.
After another Angiography, the blood flow in the right lower limb, which had been blank due to the Thrombosis blockage, was restored.
Even Ding Xiang could see what the reappearance of the tree-like vascular network meant.
It meant rebirth.
"Clap~~~"
Bai Chuzhang was furious and slammed the table hard.
"Lao Bai, don't be angry," Liu Zhi comforted him.
"What the hell is this!" Bai Chuzhang raged.
Ding Xiang rarely saw Bai Chuzhang so angry; usually, no matter how thorny a Medical Dispute was, Bai Chuzhang would appear calm and unfathomable.
It was hard to see Bai Chuzhang get angry.
"Bai Chuzhang, what's wrong?" Ding Xiang asked, puzzled.
"Sigh," Liu Zhuren explained while filling Bai Chuzhang's glass with wine, "The show edited out the most critical steps. I estimate the Thrombectomy process must have taken at least 3-5 minutes, with many detailed operations. As a result, the production team just showed the final result, which is frustrating to watch."
"Was it edited?" Ding Xiang was full of questions, "I thought it looked very smooth. The two cooperated, and although I don't know what they did, I could see the Thrombosis being removed bit by bit."
Liu Zhuren paused slightly, then smiled, "Lao Bai, this isn't an academic conference. The surgery is just a means, not the main content. The production team did it so ordinary viewers could understand, not for doctors to learn."
Bai Chuzhang knew that, of course, but he had already immersed himself in the surgery, obsessively wanting to see what exactly Ji Xiang had done.
Yet the production team only showed him a result!
Damn it!
The surgery was announced as finished, and Bai Chuzhang was very dissatisfied, but the guests in the Review Room were full of interest, excited beyond measure.
"Teacher Shen, wasn't it said that the surgery couldn't be done?"
"Yeah, watching Doctor Ji Xiang and Doctor Lin Jiuze cooperate, removing the Thrombosis didn't seem to have any difficulty."
"Exactly, exactly!"
Professor Shen let out a breath.
No difficulty? What a joke. Ordinary people naturally couldn't see where the difficulty lay, but Professor Shen had already been shocked into a cold sweat.
He knew Ji Xiang was strong, but he didn't know Ji Xiang would be this strong.
The surgery that Lin Jiuze couldn't complete alone became simple and easy when added to Ji Xiang.
It was so simple that even ordinary people couldn't feel any difficulty at all.
"Professor Shen, is it because of the 1+1 > 2 reason?" the Guangtou Zhuchiren asked in a low voice, his head full of questions.
"To be honest, I didn't understand it either," Professor Shen said truthfully, "The difficulty of the surgery was extremely high; after all, the Patient had contraindications for surgery. In Clinical practice, doctors must try their best to avoid performing surgery on patients with contraindications."
"But..."
"Let's wait for the production team to find the two doctors to act as Jian Zhi and create the complete animated images," Professor Shen said.
"It seems that's the only way," the Guangtou Zhuchiren said, "But Teacher Shen, can you briefly talk about it?"
"I just finished watching... finished watching the surgery, I'm a bit dizzy..." Professor Shen said stutteringly.
It was obvious that Professor Shen, like Bai Chuzhang, had been greatly shocked, so he had no intention of humoring the Guangtou Zhuchiren.
The screen flashed, and the sound of a typewriter, *da-da-da*, appeared.
Two days later.
Three white regular script characters were printed on a black background.
Still in the Review Room, the Guangtou Zhuchiren's mouth was still crooked.
"The production team worked day and night and finally made the animation. Teacher Shen, you take a look first to see if it's okay."
The Guangtou Zhuchiren spoke very politely.
The animation appeared: the Thrombectomy Catheter entered the blood vessel after the Femoral Artery Puncture and the placement of the Vascular Sheath, made a few turns, and arrived at the location of the right Popliteal Artery Thrombosis.
A red Thrombosis appeared before their eyes, and the Thrombectomy Catheter extended a steel wire to penetrate the Thrombosis.
A familiar voice-over appeared; it was the voice of Li Zhuren, Li Ming. He didn't explain too many details because most of the audience wouldn't understand if he said too much, so Li Zhuren only explained that the Thrombosis had formed recently, was similar to blood tofu, and the Guide Wire could easily penetrate it.
After the Guide Wire passed through the Thrombosis and opened in the lower segment, the top right corner of the screen displayed a 3D image of the Thrombectomy Catheter developed by Boston Scientific.
The Thrombectomy Umbrella made of high-tech materials was attached to the Guide Wire before penetrating the Thrombosis, as if it were one piece.
But once it passed through the Thrombosis, it could open up, pressing against the vessel wall and filling the entire lumen of the blood vessel.
It was displayed very clearly, and everyone could understand it.
The Guide Wire looked very thin, but it could open up after passing through the Thrombosis, forming an umbrella shape. It was hard to imagine how precise such a Guide Wire was; many viewers were stunned.
If there were no atherosclerosis plaque, as long as one pulled out the Thrombectomy Catheter, the Thrombosis would be "pulled" out.
But there was a piece of atherosclerosis plaque in front of the Thrombectomy Umbrella, lying across the only path.
Even Ding Xiang understood, and he widened his eyes in confusion.
Immediately, two Micro-guidewires penetrated the Thrombosis and rested on the atherosclerosis plaque. Then, the Thrombectomy Umbrella shrank by a few millimeters and glided past along the "track" laid out by the Micro-guidewires.
"Damn, sometimes I really feel that Xiao Ji's operation is inhuman," Liu Zhuren cursed.
Bai Chuzhang was silent and didn't speak.
"Inhuman operation? It looks very simple to me," Ding Laoban said, puzzled.
"Heh."
Neither Liu Zhuren nor Bai Chuzhang offered an explanation.
They just watched this animation quietly.
As the thrombosis was pulled out bit by bit by the thrombectomy umbrella, once it got close, the aspiration catheter behind it sucked the thrombosis in.
As the last bit of thrombosis disappeared, the blood flow within the popliteal artery surged downward, like a great Yangtze River.
Finally, paired with the pre-operative and post-operative angiography, the surgical process and post-operative results were displayed vividly.
"Bai Chuzhang, our Second Affiliated Hospital can't perform such a simple surgery?" Ding Xiang asked.
With one sentence, Bai Chuzhang was choked until he couldn't catch his breath.
Simple? Where was it simple!
Using a thrombectomy catheter for a thrombectomy is still a forbidden zone for many doctors engaged in interventional surgery, yet the production team used an animation to demonstrate the highest level, most perfect surgical method.
"Pa~~~"
Qin Chu slapped the desk, and the office desk trembled a few times, on the verge of collapsing.
