Chapter 921: with translation of chapter title

Generally speaking, for a Shou Bing, reaching a 79% completion is about enough.

At least, the patient won't die on the table. Afterward, anything else is the ICU doctor's worry.

This Shou Bing completion already ensures the patient won't die. Being able to save them is a blessing; what more could one ask?

But this is not what Zheng Ren wants.

He stared at the experimental subject on the Operating table, dazed. He reviewed the Shou Bing procedure twice but couldn't find where the problem was.

This pot, definitely can't be blamed on the System's Big Pig Trotter. Zheng Ren still has a sense of duty; it's definitely because his Shou Bing wasn't perfect enough, leading to insufficient completion.

But where exactly is it?

Surgical Training, restart.

Zheng Ren carefully and cautiously performed each step, striving to find the important points missed in the Shou Bing.

However, when he finished suturing the skin, he saw the Shou Bing completion was still 79%.

This calls for cursing.

Zheng Ren frowned, looking at the experimental subject, not daring to leave the System Operating Room.

Outside there are people; inside the System Space, only the Operating Room's time flow differs from the outside, almost stagnant. Zheng Ren usually does Surgical Training in the Gengyishi, sitting there dazedly, and no one would find it strange.

But today outside there are people; if he maintains a pose too long, it would be very strange.

Might as well waste a bit; there's nothing else to do.

Zheng Ren reviewed the Shou Bing procedure twice again, with a thought constantly circling in his mind but he couldn't grasp it.

If this happened outside, Zheng Ren wouldn't dwell on it but let it be natural; when it's supposed to come to mind, it will naturally come.

But now he's in the System Operating Room, every minute is extremely precious.

Helpless, Zheng Ren had to start another Surgical Training, preparing to become more proficient. And while performing the Shou Bing, he pondered what point he had missed.

76%……

75%……

Because he was thinking, the Shou Bing completion didn't rise but fell.

The sixth Shou Bing began; Zheng Ren habitually prepared to remove the patient's remaining kidney. Suddenly, a thought flashed like lightning, tearing through the darkness of his thoughts.

Zheng Ren finally remembered what was wrong.

Director Miao had asked him, if the patient's kidney were to be retained, how much could be kept. He said, at most 15% could be preserved on the kidney.

Once the breakthrough was made, everything else followed naturally.

Why is a kidney transplant basically not done by removing the kidney, but instead creating a "home" for the new kidney in the iliac fossa? Because the original kidney still retains some function, however little.

Moreover, glands like the adrenal glands should preferably be retained to avoid many postoperative endocrine system diseases.

If both sides are completely removed, endocrine secretion disorder will cause a successful Shou Bing to fail at any moment.

Upon realizing this, Zheng Ren suddenly understood.

This time, he didn't directly cut off the experimental subject's remaining kidney, but instead performed incremental repairs, trying to preserve as much kidney function and glands as possible.

But……

It's so hard.

The experimental subject's kidney is already shattered to pieces; retaining even a portion under these conditions is extremely difficult.

After more than ten Surgical Trainings, Zheng Ren gradually mastered the method; the Shou Bing completion, which could only increase by 5% at first, kept climbing and ultimately reached a high level of 98%.

That's it, Zheng Ren thought.

Although it didn't reach 100%, he was already satisfied. The missing roughly 2% is probably due to the experimental subject's condition.

After all, the patient is suffering from hemorrhagic shock; the chance of any Shou Bing reaching 100% is not high.

Watching urine continuously drain from the experimental subject's urine bag, Zheng Ren felt immensely relieved.

End the Surgical Training, let's go back.

……

Zheng Ren opened his eyes, having consumed a grandmaster-level skill book, over twenty hours of Surgical Training time, which outside was just a blink.

The sound of a cart echoed in the hallway; a severely burned patient, under the protection of a sterile cover, was hurriedly pushed forward.

Director Miao had already scrubbed in and summoned a Team-leading Professor to assist him in extracting the kidney.

As he left, he glanced at Zheng Ren and instructed: "Zheng Lao Ban, you scrub in first on this side, try to repair the remaining kidney as much as possible. My side will be done in twenty-plus minutes, won't take too long."

Having said that, Director Miao left.

Zheng Ren recalled the Shou Bing process, didn't go scrub in himself, but had Su Yun borrow a microsurgical device from neurosurgery.

"Boss, a kidney transplant, you also need to be this precise?" Su Yun exclaimed in surprise.

Speaking of organ transplants, Su Yun's starting level is much higher than Zheng Ren's. He studies and performs heart transplants; Zheng Ren's current organ transplant level cannot compare to Su Yun's.

In Su Yun's view, a kidney transplant, a Shou Bing with thick blood vessels, is completely unnecessary.

"Repairing the remaining kidney is necessary." Zheng Ren said.

Su Yun was somewhat doubtful, but still hurried to borrow the equipment for him.

Xiao Yi Ren also rushed to the Operating Room; Zheng Ren and she scrubbed in together.

This feeling is really nice.

In general Shou Bing, instrument nurses must scrub in beforehand and circulate nurses count the instruments, so that clamps, scissors, etc., are not left in the patient's abdomen.

Long ago, this kind of thing often happened.

But since emphasizing checks, it has become much less. Sometimes, because of a hemostatic clamp caught on the sterile drape, the entire Operating Room staff searches frantically for an hour.

Finally, the doctor who made the mistake still gets scolded bloody.

This should be the first time scrubbing in with Xiao Yi Ren, Zheng Ren thought.

"Zheng Ren, is it just a kidney transplant?" Xie Yiren asked.

Just... Zheng Ren's expression toward Xiao Yi Ren... was sincerely happy. If it were Su Yun, she would definitely spit at him. But when Xiao Yi Ren says it, it exudes that confidence.

"Before kidney transplant, we also need to repair the remaining kidney, trying to retain as much of the remaining kidney and adrenal gland as possible." Zheng Ren said.

"Oh, I've never seen anyone do that before."

"The patient is traumatic, so there's an extra step." Zheng Ren briefly explained.

He said while secretly glancing at Xiao Yi Ren washing her hands.

Six-step hand washing, simple and clear, each step extremely standard; combined with her flawless appearance, it could totally be a promotional video.

Especially when the water from the faucet falls onto Xiao Yi Ren's hands, white as jade, the splashing droplets seem to carry a gentle fragrance.

Like mountain spring water, ding-dong-ding, full of vitality.

After washing hands, Zheng Ren was still somewhat reluctant. But that side needs to hurry for surgery; Director Miao said, his side only needs over twenty minutes to come over.

Next time, I want to wash vegetables together with Xiao Yi Ren, Zheng Ren thought.

Washing hands, disinfecting, putting on clothes, wearing sterile Gloves, Zheng Ren stood beside Yu Jianshui.

As he reached out, the Hemostatic Forceps slapped onto his hand.
