Chapter 1674: with translation of chapter title

~7 min read 1,356 words

After eating a bite with Lin JiaoJiao, Lao He and Fan Tian Shui and the others each went their separate ways, Zheng Ren and the others hurried back to Golden Palm.

They hurried to have a quick video call with Director Pan.

The treatment was appropriate; Director Pan no longer had a fever. However, he still felt a bit listless, emphasizing that it was because he hadn't drunk alcohol for several days, which left him with no strength at all.

After looking at Director Pan's lab report, just like a remote consultation, Zheng Ren finally felt relieved.

They exchanged a few jokes, did not disturb Director Pan's rest, ended the video call, said goodbye to Xiao Yi Ren, and went back to sleep.

Xie Yiren told Zheng Ren that tomorrow they should take a taxi to the hospital themselves, while she waited at home for the moving company.

Zheng Ren and Su Yun needed very little; as a man, if they really packed out dozens of exquisite boxes, that would be abnormal.

Lying in bed, Zheng Ren felt that this trip to Nanyang had still been quite rewarding.

Having completed two tasks, the gains were substantial. As for whether that side would help purchase the various technologies listed, Zheng Ren didn't know.

There were no expectations regarding it.

Now Zheng Ren will use the True Eye again to examine the left gastric and fundic artery embolization procedure.

Turning off the lights, Zheng Ren came to the System Space, looking at the energy potion, feeling somewhat worried.

The Big Pig Trotter also didn't come with instructions; should this thing be drunk before using the True Eye, or after using it?

Zheng Ren was indeed very careful, after all, having seen too many food poisonings since his medical career began.

As for that aunt Su Yun mentioned on the plane, who ate health supplements until she suffered kidney failure……

Zheng Ren had been bombarded by similar cases and patients to the point of numbness, feeling a deep-seated fear of unfamiliar, unknown substances.

As for taking it out to test and analyze its components, Zheng Ren had also considered that.

But the feasibility was ultimately not great.

If others noticed something amiss, how would life go on from then on? Su Yun doubted that it had only been a day or two.

If there truly were some unknown element present, one's future would be unimaginable.

Besides, there's no rush; today should be fine, even if feeling dizzy and blurred vision, at worst resting for two days. Having been a scumbag for so long, it must be corrected immediately.

Life, one cannot remain a scumbag forever.

Zheng Ren sat by the candy-eating side of the System Space, making eye contact with the Little White Fox, pondering some miscellaneous things in his mind.

After an unknown amount of time, Zheng Ren smiled, opened the System Panel, selected the True Eye, and began studying the left gastric and fundic artery embolization weight-loss procedure.

The entire System Space seemed to freeze, and then instantly wind and clouds surged, with the sun, moon, and stars flashing by in the void above.

Soon, Zheng Ren moved slightly.

He lifted his foot from the pond, feeling somewhat dazed.

He completely lacked the previous dizzy and blurred vision sensation, and what he saw was also not much.

As for the energy potion…… Zheng Ren felt that a night's sleep would suffice; it was better to keep that thing.

Perhaps it was because the weight-loss surgery itself wasn't difficult?

It might also be that I have recently been constantly pondering this technique, which led to this situation.

Overall, the procedure can be said to be relatively simple, and Zheng Ren, through the True Eye, discovered that his earlier vague awareness was correct.

This procedure, Zhu Liangchen had performed one case; postoperative side effects were severe, and it even led to a gastric streptococcus infection.

Afterward, Zhu Liangchen never sought me out; I suppose after symptomatic treatment there were no further issues.

Zheng Ren also studied the patient that Zhu Liangchen had treated, but found no leads; he only knew that although the procedure looked simple, it actually required deep research.

Zhu Liangchen was very cautious, fearful of complications, performing the embolization in the fourth-order artery below the left gastric artery.

But Zheng Ren now knows the problem lies here.

The embolization site was too close to the distal end, the embolization grade too high, causing ulcers in the local gastric wall, even leading to gastric wall necrosis.

This is rather absurd.

When the surgery was done too meticulously, it led to failure; when done a bit crudely, it instead led to success.

Zheng Ren stared at the Little White Fox, pondering the cause in his mind.

Soon, he realized his thinking had been limited by the liver cancer embolization surgery.

Liver cancer embolization surgery is the most numerous procedure in the Intervention Department, and also the most widespread and longest-running.

For liver cancer surgery, the requirement is a deep embolization site, with emphasis on super-selective technique.

This is a mindset set, the set pattern of liver intervention surgery.

Many irresponsible doctors thread the guidewire catheter through the hepatic artery and directly drip iodized oil inside.

Fifteen minutes per case, and that counts as the surgery being finished.

Zheng Ren's liver cancer embolization surgery also takes fifteen minutes per case.

But can a top-tier operator and an ordinary operator really be the same? Zheng Ren's fifteen minutes can achieve the workload of other operators' two hours.

But ordinary operators just go through the motions, leaving the rest to fate; this surgical approach, Zheng Ren especially despises.

Being a doctor without a sense of responsibility—what kind of doctor is that?

This profession, aside from being a job to support the family, also bears too much—for example, life, for example, responsibility, for example……

But weight-loss surgery is an entirely different concept.

The purpose of the surgery is not to occlude the stomach's blood supply vessels, but to reduce blood flow.

Super-selective and precise, it leads to severe local ischemia, subsequently causing severe ulcers, even local necrosis of the gastric wall.

When the surgery is done precisely, it becomes the problem; this is laughable, yet it is a fact.

Zheng Ren recalled why he always subconsciously refused to study weight-loss interventional surgery—not because he thought it unimportant, but because it is indeed too simple, to the point that he doesn't believe it's real.

Besides requiring the embolization site to be in a secondary blood vessel, Zheng Ren also saw that there were opinions on the choice of embolizing agent.

Using a spring ring for embolization, although this further increases the surgery's cost, it is nevertheless necessary.

The side effects of other embolizing agents are too great; Zheng Ren has already seen many failed cases through the True Eye.

If I'd known it was this simple, I would have looked at it earlier.

Zheng Ren glanced at the System Panel, and the True Eye entered cooldown again.

This thing is truly useful; researching hypertension and such, even if you exhaust yourself, you still can't see the actual details.

But using it to observe the 'minor' weight-loss embolization procedure, it's quite handy.

Zheng Ren felt delighted.

One heart condition is gone; tomorrow I'll let Lin JiaoJiao admit patients and perform surgery!

Clicking Surgical Training Time, Zheng Ren searched for procedures and began testing a new technique.

Pure theory is the same, but actually doing it, wanting to raise the Shou Bing completion rate to 100% is another matter.

Zheng Ren performed a full 100 Shou Bing procedures before finally leaving the System Space satisfied.

Having completed three major tasks in a row, Zheng Ren can now be said to be wealthy and confident. Regarding the consumption of 100 Interventional surgery procedures, he smiled faintly and didn't care.

Sleeping until midnight, Zheng Ren's phone started ringing wildly.

At the same time, Zheng Ren heard Su Yun's phone ringing as well.

Calling both himself and Su Yun at the same time? He suddenly woke up, with no morning grumpiness.

There must be something big going on!
