2629.2529 He……cheated!

Zheng Lao Ban in the operating room seemed to hear Pangzuren's inner shout; he simply tested the adhesion between the electrode tip and the heart, then stopped.

He stopped pressing the pedal, and the image on the screen froze into the final failed extraction picture.

"How do you two supervisors think? Can Zheng Lao Ban extract it?" Lin Yuanzhang asked.

"I think it's impossible." Liangzuren blurted out his opinion without thinking, "It's been three years post-op, the fibrous organization is severe; if we use force to extract it, the surrounding few centimeters of endocardium would likely tear, and it's uncertain whether the myocardium would tear."

"Mm, I think Liangzuren is right." Pangzuren said cautiously.

"Zheng Lao Ban, be gentle." Liangzuren pressed the intercom and said to Zheng Ren inside.

"Mm, I won't use much force." Zheng Ren was concentrating on manipulating the J-type fixed guidewire, feeding the steel wire inside, straightening the J-shaped bend.

Liangzuren stared for a moment, wondering what they were trying to do; he scratched his head, turned off the intercom, and since he couldn't even understand how to perform the surgery, he decided to be cautious.

He couldn't tell whether Zheng Lao Ban was attempting some method he himself wasn't sure of, or whether the gap between him and a Nobel laureate was really this huge!

Then Su Yun also began threading the steel wire through the J-type fixed guidewire, and together they advanced the wire along the 6F vascular sheath into the right femoral vein.

What are they doing?

Liangzuren is one of the country's first-generation experts in cardiac interventional surgery, with extremely rich clinical experience. Especially when interventional surgery first began and supplies were scarce, he had tried every imaginative idea.

Yet he still couldn't understand Zheng Lao Ban's operation in the operating suite.

Pangzuren is currently one of the nation's top experts in cardiac interventional surgery, having performed over 7,000 such procedures. Although some cases involve assistance—one-third done by the medical team—his skill is not to be underestimated.

Yet he still couldn't understand Zheng Lao Ban's operation in the operating suite.

Even top interventional cardiologists couldn't figure it out, and Lin Yuanzhang understood even less. Not only did he not understand the procedure, he couldn't read the operator's expression either.

Zheng Lao Ban was like a mountain—his expression showed no change at all, calm with a hint of composure, even bordering on cold and ruthless!

Su Yun's expression still carried a touch of teasing; his layers of masks looked somewhat redundant, and Lin Yuanzhang kept wondering how this handsome young man liked to wear so many layers of masks during surgery.

But Lin Yuanzhang could read his own daughter's expression.

Through the lead glass, he could only see half of Lin Yuan's face, not even her eyes. Yet he could sense a glow emanating from her face—…she had understood what Zheng Lao Ban intended to do!

The screen in the operating suite immediately sprang to life, and everyone hurriedly turned their gaze to it.

The two J-type fixed guidewires, one ahead of the other, had already passed through the femoral vein, entered the inferior vena cava, and then reached the right atrium.

Seeing this, many of those watching the procedure had question marks and black lines on their foreheads.

Amidst the confusion, the steel wire at the front end of the J-type fixed guidewire protruded, and the steel wires of the two guidewires moved almost in sync, like two switchblades suddenly flashing a cold gleam.

Pangzuren's heart jolted; he faintly saw the impending surgical collateral damage.

Liangzuren felt a bit anxious; he had just pressed the intercom button intending to tell Zheng Lao Ban to operate slowly, but immediately he saw the steel wires at the front ends of the two J-type fixed guidewires, like tweezers, beginning to delicately dissect the proliferative adhesions around the electrode tip.

In an instant, the two supervisors, veterans who had performed countless pacemaker implantations, were both stunned.

This is blunt dissection, this is freeing, this is……damn, it's the technique of open surgery!

Cheating! Whether it was Liangzuren or Pangzuren, a thought flashed in their dazed minds: in interventional surgery, seizing the chance to use open‑surgical methods to accomplish the hardest part—if that isn't cheating, what is?

"Liangzuren, what is Zheng Lao Ban doing?" Lin Yuanzhang, not understanding, furrowed his brow and asked.

"It…is…blunt dissection…maybe." Liangzuren said hesitantly.

Blunt dissection?

Blunt dissection!

Lin Yuanzhang also froze; he watched on the screen as two black threads as fine as hair, representing the electrode tip, moved slightly aside, finding it hard to believe that the steel wire at the head of the J-type fixed guidewire was performing a dissection motion.

Entering from the right femoral vein, a soft, powerless guidewire and steel wire—just finding a blood vessel would be lucky, yet they actually had to perform a force‑requiring dissection?!

This is impossible; surely Liangzuren misread it.

Lin Yuanzhang immediately rejected Liangzuren's statement in his mind and turned his gaze toward Pangzuren.

The moment he looked at Pangzuren, he saw Pangzuren's face full of doubt, standing up, bending over to lean on the operating table, striving to get closer to the screen to see more clearly.

"Xiao Linzi."

Liangzuren's intercom, which he had pressed down but forgotten to release, transmitted a voice.

Lin Yuanzhang instinctively responded, "Eh!"

"Yun Ge'er, how do we do it?" Lin Yuan's voice also came through at the same time. Lin Yuanzhang instantly "woke" up—it was Doctor Su Yun calling his own daughter… and he, a supervisor‑director, had actually answered the nickname "Xiao Linzi," which made him feel embarrassed.

He looked left and right; it seemed no one had noticed his involuntary remark—phew, phew… Lin Yuanzhang felt his face warming.

"Hold the rear steel wire steady, pay attention to the angle of its movement." Su Yun's voice was completely devoid of emotion, unlike when he spoke from below the operating table, usually full of various teasing, anger, and scolding; he was fully focused on the surgery.

"Mm, don't worry, Yun Ge'er, I'm watching." Lin Yuan replied softly.

"Snare, rear hand high, 15°, use a little less force." Zheng Ren's voice came through.

"No, the angle is off a bit."

"No, use even less force; you've tilted the large head of the radiofrequency ablation."

"Yes, pay attention to the large head of the radiofrequency ablation; we're pushing up and down, trying to expose as much of the adhesion gap as possible."

"Mm, this maneuver is good."

Zheng Ren kept speaking; although his words lacked a subject, everyone knew he was talking to Lin Yuanzhang's daughter, Lin Yuan.

It turned out that Lin Yuan's going up on stage wasn't just about holding the guidewire and being a mere background figure; she also had to perform very delicate, crucial operations.

Lin Yuanzhang's heart was in his throat.

"Can my daughter pull it off?" At this point he could no longer spare the worry for his daughter undergoing radiation during the procedure; instead he recalled what Zheng Lao Ban and Doctor Su had just said.

They……were really performing blunt dissection, doing blunt dissection in an interventional procedure! Zheng Lao Ban openly cheated!
