Chapter 306: 0300 Fearless Brave (4/4, 3000 average subscription bonus chapter)

~7 min read 1,284 words

After changing clothes, Professor Rudolf Wagner came to the operation room outside the operating room.

Through the lead glass, the professor saw the patient's posture was very strange. Before he could look closely, a short woman asked, "Who are you?"

Director Xia of the Hepatology Department saw Professor Rudolf Wagner walk in and was completely baffled by the situation.

"Director Xia, he is Professor Rudolf Wagner from Heidelberg University in Germany." Xie Yiren had set up Zheng Ren last night, performed many surgeries, knew the professor's background, and thus introduced him.

"……" Director Xia was speechless. When has the hospital ever had a German professor come for a visit? Given the hospital's conduct, if German experts or professors came to visit and exchange, publicity would surely have been all over the place by now.

Could it be fake?

She looked doubtfully at Professor Rudolf Wagner.

"I am here to find Zheng, beautiful lady." Professor Rudolf Wagner explained in stiff Chinese.

"Looking for Doctor Zheng? What for?" Director Xia asked instinctively.

"Zheng, he has a pair of God's hands." Professor Rudolf Wagner explained: "I wanted to find him to set up a research group for a new technique, but Zheng refused me."

Director Xia broke out in a sweat……

Her first reaction was that this guy who looked like a foreign expert was a con artist, in cahoots with Zheng Ren.

But upon second thought, deceiving oneself would be pointless.

Could it really be true?

She was doubtful.

"Professor, what is your specialty?" Director Xia asked.

"Intervention." Professor Rudolf Wagner said, "I started attempting TIPS surgery 20 years ago, and to date have completed over three hundred TIPS surgeries, making me one of the doctors who have performed the most of this procedure worldwide."

That number is impressive, the professor knows.

Within the global scope, it is rare for an intervention doctor to have performed over a hundred TIPS procedures, and I am far ahead, having done over three hundred.

The gap in experience is something others cannot catch up to.

Especially TIPS surgery, which requires experience and luck…… When luck is mentioned, Professor Rudolf Wagner feels a bit down.

Many years ago he wanted to improve this surgical technique that relies on luck, but he failed to do so.

Perhaps this is a test from God to humanity, or maybe not. The professor always uses this reason to console himself.

Upon hearing Professor Rudolf Wagner's words, Director Xia's eyes lit up instantly.

If… if what the professor says is true, then his classmates would have hope.

To be frank, Director Xia does not believe that the young doctor Zheng Ren could complete a TIPS surgery, especially an emergency one.

If possible, the odds would be low enough to make one's hair stand on end.

This surgery, whether emergency or non-emergency, vomiting blood or refractory ascites, has a huge difference.

In a routine outpatient TIPS surgery, the patient lies flat, with local anesthesia of the neck. If the patient feels pain during the puncture, a dose of Dilaudid can solve the problem.

But in an emergency TIPS surgery, the patient is vomiting blood and absolutely cannot be placed in the supine position; otherwise, if the patient vomits blood, aspiration could occur, which could be fatal.

Therefore, the patient can only adopt the awkward lateral position……

After observing the situation in the operating room, Professor Rudolf Wagner also surprisingly discovered this.

Zheng's gall is simply enormous!

This is a TIPS surgery; even a tiny mistake can lead to failure.

He is doing it for the first time, yet he actually uses this awkward position.

Professor Rudolf Wagner seems to have already seen the dejected figure of Zheng Ren after a failed surgery.

Let me come to save you, Eastern boy.

The professor felt somewhat pleased thinking.

In the operating room, the jugular vein puncture and catheterization have been completed; these operations pose no difficulty.

What comes next is the main event; Professor Rudolf Wagner crossed his arms and stared intently at the screen.

The puncture needle is in place; the speed is slow and cautious because the patient keeps vomiting blood and spasming. Clearly, the difficulty of this emergency surgery far exceeds that of a routine outpatient surgery.

At the same time, the live-stream room in Xinglin Yuan went crazy.

Emergency TIPS surgery hemostasis! This is the highest-difficulty surgery the operator has performed since the live-stream room went live.

Some people don't understand the difficulty of TIPS surgery, but after the extremely excited general surgery and intervention department doctors explained it, most came to understand.

This procedure is unclear, but the mesocaval shunt is a classic procedure from the textbook that everyone learned in school.

【The operator truly is defying heaven!】

【Emergency, lateral position, and yet they want to do a TIPS surgery…… If it weren't for the fact that the operator succeeds in every surgery, I would surely have predicted failure early.】

【Wait for the news of surgical success, young man. I have a premonition that the operator will go from one victory to the next, with no mishap.】

【By the way, the postoperative complications of TIPS surgery are quite a headache. A few days ago I just admitted a patient who had undergone TIPS surgery; three months post-op, he still intermittently shows hepatic encephalopathy.】

【There's no choice; if you don't do it, you die. Do you say to do it or not to do it?】

【Now starts a prize guessing game: everyone guess how many failed punctures the operator will need before succeeding.】

Many doctors don't understand what it means to puncture many times, because this is too specialized; unless they are general surgery or intervention department doctors, they cannot come into contact with this ultra-high-difficulty surgery.

In the country, hospitals capable of carrying out this surgery are at least provincial capital cities.

Or invite experts and professors to come perform the flying knife; successfully doing one or two cases would be enough for the hospital to boast about for a year.

Although meaningless, the hospital administration still indulges in it without tiring.

This is also a characteristic.

【20 times!】

【I think the operator will fail; I see the patient's body moving on the screen, probably vomiting blood.】

【By the way, if it's the lateral position, how is the imaging done……】

The machine can rotate, but the rotation angle will increase the difficulty of the patient's Shou Bing. I have now begun to sympathize with the surgeon, and in this situation I still have to strive to complete the Shou Bing.

I think about 10 times is enough; last time our Hospital invited a professor from Di Du to do it, and after 10 punctures it succeeded.

That was good luck; a few years ago we also invited a renowned professor from Modu to do TIPS Surgery. It failed 30 times; I estimate the patients' livers were punctured to ruin, and we still didn't complete the portal vein and hepatic vein punctures.

Soon, everyone, based on their own personal experience and experience, fully demonstrated the difficulty of the Shou Bing.

Many doctors, hearing their peers' descriptions, already feel apprehensive about TIPS Surgery.

This damn, it's not a Shou Bing, it's basically the Yama who takes lives!

The Shou Bing depends on luck; dozens of punctures cause severe liver damage, and post-operation there is a high chance of hepatic encephalopathy.

Any of these points gives doctors sufficient reason to abandon the Shou Bing.

Not doing it, the patient's life or death has nothing to do with me.

If done, if the patient dies, or hepatic encephalopathy is relatively severe, there is a high chance of medical disputes.

This... the operator truly is fearless and brave.
