Chapter 746: with translation of chapter title

Zheng Ren performed surgery frenetically.

He arrived at the Provincial Hospital and began performing thrombectomy+amputation surgery.

If it were an ordinary doctor, they would wait several hours after thrombectomy, until the capillaries were fully opened, before performing surgery.

Because they are not the thrombectomy operators, they do not know how effective the surgery is, nor the condition of the capillaries.

Even the Intervention Department doctors capable of thrombectomy are not as skilled as Zheng Ren, and besides, they cannot perform amputation surgery.

Zheng Ren need not wait, completely saving the time that would otherwise be spent waiting for blood vessel reperfusion.

Waiting has its advantage: it is more certain.

Waiting for blood vessel reperfusion, dilation, and the return of blood circulation; but if the wait is too long, large amounts of necrotic tissue in the interstitial spaces will enter the circulation, worsening the patient's hepatic and renal burden and leading to acute renal failure.

In Nanchuan Town, Zheng Ren persisted repeatedly, almost a nationwide mobilization, gathering thousands of dialysis sets and corresponding doctors and nurses to support Rongcheng.

So patients with acute renal failure received treatment immediately, curbing the trend of severe renal failure causing casualties.

It is merely an acute condition, transient; as long as dialysis keeps up, most casualties can survive the acute phase.

But the casualties operated on by Zheng Ren generally do not need dialysis.

During thrombectomy, while the blood vessel is reopened, Zheng Ren has already surgically removed necrotic tissue. He knows the effect of thrombectomy recanalization like the back of his hand; every reconstructed capillary network is in his mind, and each necrotic tissue removal stays at the edge of the preservable limit.

Even Su Yun watched with heart-pounding anxiety.

But Zheng Ren had this confidence, and gradually Su Yun became accustomed to it.

Do not question the boss's any decision; Su Yun silently accepted this new arrangement.

Not for any other reason, the boss's thrombectomy+amputation surgery is truly good!

Among the casualties, according to Su Yun's observation, amputation should be above the knee joint for the utmost safety.

But Zheng Ren insisted on amputating below the knee joint, and taking a skin flap at a position 10 cm below the knee.

Looking at the skin flap already near necrosis, Su Yun raised a doubt.

But his doubt was ignored by Zheng Ren; the operator has the authority to decide the surgical approach during the procedure.

Su Yun remained unconvinced, but after the amputation surgery, VSD negative pressure was applied; 12 hours later, taking advantage of a surgical interval, Su Yun inquired about the casualty's condition.

Director Chen told him that the skin flap area could already feel temperature and showed oozing bleeding.

This means the capillary network has been successfully constructed; that skin flap appearing to be at the necrotic edge, before superb surgical skill, still survived.

Afterward, Su Yun no longer raised any objections.

The boss had it figured out; whether he understood or not, he would carry it out; in the end, the facts will prove the boss correct.

He performed surgery frenetically, and with good postoperative outcomes for the casualties, it soon attracted the attention of the Provincial Hospital's Intervention Department, Orthopedics, and Trauma.

They began to doubt, thinking it was just rumor; moreover, due to prolonged nonstop surgery, everyone was exhausted, and no one wanted to study surgery at such a time.

But curiosity killed the cat.

When an Intervention Department doctor used precious rest time to come to the observation platform, he left silently, and after pondering for nearly an hour, he suddenly understood; thereafter, more and more doctors began coming to this hybrid operating room to watch the surgery.

Because too many people watched the surgery during intervals, the Medical Department even used the broadcasting equipment inside the operating rooms; after obtaining Zheng Ren's consent, each surgery was broadcast in the large lecture hall.

Not everyone is accustomed to the lecture-hall surgery livestream, because although there are many cameras, the viewing angle is still somewhat limited.

Some people, taking advantage of surgical intervals, came to the operating area to watch.

Many more people rested or slept in the lecture hall while watching the surgery; they would fall asleep unknowingly while watching before bed, and upon waking, as long as they did not receive a call to go to surgery themselves, they would continue watching.

This surgery is damn awesome!

Even more awesome, the operator seems tireless, always wearing Lead clothing while performing surgery.

People cannot be compared; gradually, even some doctors who were originally dissatisfied silently accepted reality.

Learn from others, what else can one do?

Xie Yiren stood quietly in the corner of the operating area, eyes fixed on the screen.

As an instrument nurse, she learned the relevant knowledge after Zheng Ren began the interventional surgery; although Zheng Ren did not need her to enter and assist, she felt she ought to know what to do if she were ever needed.

The surgery went smoothly, clots were removed segment by segment, as easy as taking something from a bag.

The blood vessel was opened, all the way to its distal end; Zheng Ren stopped thrombectomy to avoid bleeding.

Had the casualty's injured limb not been compressed for too long, if it were still a fresh wound, Xie Yiren would have no doubt that Zheng Ren would perform an open vascular anastomosis.

But the casualties from the front line did not have such conditions.

No matter how high the medical skill, there is a limit.

Indeed, Zheng Ren decisively abandoned thrombectomy; after repeat angiography, he judged which capillary branches could be opened, and already had a plan for the next step.

After angiography ended, Zheng Ren withdrew the guidewire, and Su Yun applied pressure to achieve hemostasis.

Xie Yiren immediately opened the sensing airtight Lead door and walked in.

Zheng Ren was about to go rescrub his hands; taking advantage of Su Yun's pressure, he rescrubbed to disinfect the operative field. At that very moment, his peripheral vision caught a figure that haunted his dreams appearing in the operating room.

He was really exhausted, even hallucinating. Zheng Ren gave an embarrassed smile, but his steps involuntarily halted.

How I wish it were real; unfortunately, Xiao Yi Ren could not possibly appear here.

Let this feeling linger a while longer; even a few seconds would be good.

Zheng Ren stood still, not daring to turn around; he feared that if he turned, the vision would suddenly vanish.

But that figure became increasingly clear,

more and more lifelike,

and ever closer.

Zheng Ren's hands suddenly became unusable, his whole body stiff, as if petrified by Medusa's gaze.

Xie Yiren walked up to Zheng Ren and, without reservation, gave him a warm embrace. Of course, it was only imaginary; wearing Lead clothing, one could not actually feel warmth.

Is… is it real?

'Zheng Ren, you bastard, dare to trick me!' Xie Yiren whispered into Zheng Ren's ear the words she had long held a grudge over.

"..." Zheng Ren only then realized that all of this was real, not that he was dreaming.

Just as his limbs were stiff like a robot's, when he wanted to hug Xie Yiren, that figure had already left his body.

Xie Yiren went straight to wash her hands.

"Hey, Yi Ren, where's Chang Yue?" Su Yun looked up and asked.

"She's seeing patients at home, she said she can't leave home either." Xie Yiren went to wash her hands without turning back.

Su Yun blew out a breath, the black hair pressed down by the sterile cap floated in mind.
