Chapter 1549: 1502 Sense of Proportion (Sect Leader Snow Mountain Cloud Extra Chapter)

~7 min read 1,310 words

"Where is Director Luo?" Feng Jianguo asked.

"He took the elevator up; I was anxious, so I ran via the fire escape." Zheng Ren smiled.

Scrubbing hands, swish-swish-swish~

"Where is Director Luo?" Director Luo's voice came over.

"Director Luo, I'm scrubbing my hands." Zheng Ren shouted, "Please wait a moment."

Soon, Zheng Ren walked back to the Shujian, scrubbed his hands again, and put on his clothes.

"Director Luo, could you please do a colonoscopy?" Zheng Ren said.

"Huh?" Director Luo was taken aback.

"I have a doubt that it might be an intra-luminal appendix; please take a look." Zheng Ren said softly.

"Is the bowel prepared?"

"No." Zheng Ren also sighed a bit, "Let's try; the patient hasn't eaten much for three days. We'll go as far as we can; if we truly can't see, I'll feel with my hand."

Director Luo also wasn't too particular; Quan Xiaocao helped push the colonoscope machine over, and then began the examination.

Zheng Ren stood in the assistant's position, feeling a bit awkward, but he was resolute.

This wasn't modesty; it was simply standing directly beside Feng Jianguo.

With Director Wei present, it would be inappropriate no matter what to stand in the surgeon's position.

"Zheng Lao Ban, is it big?" Director Wei asked worriedly.

"Probably quite large." Zheng Ren glanced again at the operative field, just like in the System Operating Room; Director Wei and Professor Feng had already probed the entire bowel but still hadn't found the appendix.

Director Wei sighed, feeling sorrowful like a teenager experiencing his first unrequited love, watching the girl he loved link arms with someone else and walk away.

"Don't be anxious, let's take a look first and then talk." Zheng Ren comforted Director Wei.

Feng Jianguo, however, had confidence in Zheng Renji; his judgment on the possibility of an intra-luminal appendix was more optimistic.

Zheng Lao Ban stood beside him, and that feeling was different.

The anxiety in his heart vanished, leaving only a sense of steadiness. The surgery—Zheng Lao Ban would surely handle it—and Feng Jianguo had an inexplicable thought in his heart.

The colonoscope entered the rectum, with a lot of fecal matter; there was nothing to be done about it.

A standard appendectomy does not require bowel prep; fasting from water for 4-6 hours is enough to proceed.

Moreover, the patient's position during surgery is not suitable for bowel prep.

Director Luo operated the gastroscope, skillfully advancing through the patient's bowel with a gentle technique, fully focused.

Just as he said, no matter how small the examination or surgery, one must give it one's all.

Fortunately, the patient had been on liquid food for a relatively long time, so there were no solid fecal masses in the bowel, and the colonoscope entered smoothly.

"The cecum, about 12 cm upward." Zheng Ren looked at the colonoscope image and suddenly said.

"Yes." Director Luo's colonoscope had reached the spot, "Bowel hyperplasia…… looks like…… is this the appendix?"

"Yeah, that's it." Zheng Ren smiled, "Director Luo, please help with the localization."

"Okay, the lens is 4 cm from the intra-luminal appendix; only the head is visible, the base position cannot be determined for now." Director Luo said.

Upon seeing the appendix appear on the colonoscope monitor, Director Wei almost burst into tears.

It was incredibly difficult; this damn thing actually hid inside the bowel lumen. And to make matters worse, it hid so far away!

I myself had considered the possibility of an intra-luminal appendix, but after palpating the cecum, I felt nothing.

If I had known to palpate a bit higher, I could have felt this damned appendix!

Not only did it grow inside the lumen, but it was also ectopically positioned—nothing like this exists.

"Director Wei, localization is complete; we're ready to cut." Zheng Ren said calmly.

"Oh, oh, okay." Director Wei was a bit dazed; hearing Zheng Ren say that, he immediately perked up.

There's nothing to worry about now; finding the appendix's location means it's good, and the surgery is essentially over.

But at this point we cannot drive Zheng Lao Ban away.

Face forward, not backward—such a person has no friends.

Forget it; let Zheng Lao Ban do the surgery.

"Zheng Lao Ban, you come." Director Wei said politely.

Zheng Ren smiled, but did not take the scalpel.

"You come; I'm just here to lend a hand." Zheng Ren said with a smile.

Director Wei gratefully glanced at Zheng Ren, not saying much more. With this anesthesia, the worst thing is to talk too much; the patient, in a daze, might catch a few words, and if he opens his mouth to speak, if you don't come, then I will……

Then the surgery really couldn't be done.

Such patients have not been unheard of.

After feeling Director Luo's colonoscope lens, we incised the bowel, and two suction devices were inserted simultaneously.

Suction out the feces to avoid wound infection as much as possible.

If the infection is judged to be severe, a stoma would be needed, awaiting second-stage surgery.

But such a situation can still be avoided as much as possible.

It's just appendicitis…… that's all……

Fortunately, the patient really hadn't eaten much for days; the bowel wasn't very dirty, and the suction device didn't draw out anything.

Contaminated instruments were set aside; Director Wei was energized and began dissecting and removing the intra-luminal appendix.

The difficulty of the surgery lies in finding the appendix; once found, no matter how deformed, it can be easily excised.

As the surgery began, Director Luo withdrew the colonoscope lens, handed it to the circulating nurse for cleaning, and watched the surgery with his hands behind his back.

Zheng Lao Ban understands the rules; at his age to be able to appreciate this sense of proportion is truly not easy.

Young and coming to save the situation, he was actually not at all impatient, nor did he have any sense of pride. He stood honestly in the assistant's position and refused Director Wei's request to let him lead the surgery.

Everyone is comfortable, Zheng Lao Ban will definitely be able to go further in the future, Director Luo judged in his heart.

What appeared before his eyes was the scene of his first meeting with Zheng Lao Ban, with Shou Bing as the background.

At that time, I still thought it was someone's little troublemaker, with a bruised nose and swollen face.

Director Luo laughed, Old Kong really found a treasure.

That old fellow, his luck is really good.

Remove the appendix, repeatedly disinfect and suture the intestines, reposition the intestinal tube; the Shou Bing is declared over.

"Zheng Lao Ban, take a rest." After the Shou Bing was completed, Director Wei said with a smile.

After saying that, he turned and stepped down.

Zheng Ren looked around, but he didn't stay on the operating table. Although he wanted to do some Shou Bing, even just a small part, but with the two Team-leading Professors on the operating table, he really couldn't show himself.

Forget it, go down. The Shou Bing I just performed in the System Operating Room already counts as satisfying.

"Xiao Cao, can this Shou Bing be written up as a case report?" Zheng Ren said with a smile, "Keep the Colonoscope image."

"Oh." Quan Xiaocao answered timidly, lowering his head.

"Xiao Cao, why don't you raise your head when speaking?" Feng Jianguo feared Zheng Ren would be displeased; although he knew Quan Xiaocao was simply shy, but his own reprimand is better than Zheng Lao Ban feeling uncomfortable.

"Oh oh." Quan Xiaocao felt a bit flustered, raised his head, and said embarrassedly: "I've already sent an article to the Willow Leaf Blade,"

"What's there to fear about more articles?" Zheng Ren said with a smile, "It's fine, you do the preliminary work, and for later matters, find Su Yun."
