Chapter 1669: Chapter 1763: He Did It, Really Did It!
Xu Ziming was surprised to see Director Wu personally going out for the surgery!
One must know, Director Wu’s heart surgery skills used to be famously exceptional.
He earned the honorary title of Academician through his proficiency in heart surgeries!
A-level ambulance.
Academician Wu Tongpu, the new Academician Xu Ziming, and several other experts set forth, heading to the Jingming community.
Luo Youcai watched the departing car, feeling somewhat envious of Chen Cang.
But then he thought to himself, this guy is just so likable.
Unlike some people, who besides wealth, have nothing else!
...
...
At this moment!
Under the illumination of the phone light.
The surgery finally began!
This would be a "Surgery for ectopic right pulmonary vein directly anastomosed to the left atrium under extracorporeal circulation"!
Deng Ming was initially very nervous.
But when Chen Cang’s scalpel broke the skin and blood slowly seeped out, he instantly got in the zone!
Even Chen Cang, fully immersed in the surgery, felt a bit of admiration.
The surgery began thoroughly!
Right at the center of the sternum, the scalpel in Chen Cang’s hand seemed to possess a soul, cautiously cutting through.
He had to consider one thing: the supply of hemostatic gauze was limited!
Not only was there a limited supply of hemostatic gauze, but even saline, alcohol...everything was scarce!
This was a surgery, yet there were far too many hindrances to the operation!
Regular gauze was vastly different from hemostatic gauze, and Chen Cang used regular gauze as much as possible.
Deng Ming carefully assisted Chen Cang.
The other three lights hung overhead, slightly hot.
Deng Ming didn’t know how Chen Cang would carry out this surgery.
Because in his impression, many papers he read didn’t have relevant introductions!
This...could it be a surgical plan Chen had devised based on the scene?
Thinking of this, Deng Ming felt a bit terrified.
Exactly!
To be precise, Chen Cang was intimidatingly skilled.
The purpose of this surgery was to locate the opening of the right pulmonary vein and redirect it to the left atrium through various methods.
This process sounds simple.
But to do it properly, the difficulty is quite high!
Because one must manage the blood in this vein well and ensure proper suturing between the vein and the heart.
This requires the use of "extracorporeal circulation"!
The so-called "extracorporeal circulation" is a supportive life technology that uses a series of special artificial devices to drain venous blood outside the body, exchanging gases, regulating temperature, and filtering it before returning it to the intra-arterial system.
The main purpose of this technique is to maintain the oxygen and blood supply to systemic tissues and organs during direct cardiovascular surgery, ensuring good internal exposure of the heart.
Undoubtedly, it reduces the difficulty of the operation.
But at this moment, the conditions for extracorporeal circulation were basically nonexistent.
Deng Ming looked at Chen Cang, truly unsure of what Chen Cang planned to do next.
Watching the heart beat slowly, everyone felt a bit tense.
The old lady’s children saw this scene, and the visual impact was unprecedented!
At this time, Chen Cang picked up the hemostatic clamps, clamping both ends of the malformed vessel!
He glanced at Deng Ming: "Follow my instructions!"
Deng Ming nodded: "Okay!"
At this moment, Chen Cang swiftly commenced operation!
The initial step is the incision and drainage of the vein.
This is one of the most crucial phases of the surgery!
Most dangerous here is the failure of vessel formation, causing massive bleeding.
However, the time for blockage is limited.
Currently, the patient’s own pulmonary blood supply was somewhat abnormal, meaning without extracorporeal circulation or vascular drainage, the operation time was less than 90 seconds!
Perform vessel formation within 90 seconds?
How challenging is it?
Moreover, afterward, it will be necessary to suture the vessel to the heart!
Could the heart undergo massive bleeding?
Similarly, can this vein be perfectly anastomosed to the left atrium while the heart keeps beating?
Thus, this kind of operation is exceedingly difficult!
Not employing extracorporeal circulation for such surgical procedures means the surgeon must possess extraordinary exposure level, outstanding suturing skills, precise meticulous surgical plan... meanwhile preventing intraoperative massive bleeding!
Deng Ming’s sweat beads were dropping, and he hurriedly inhaled to prevent it from dripping onto the patient!
Professor Chen has put in so much effort, though he couldn’t be of much help, he couldn’t drag behind!
At this moment, while Chen Cang conducted rapid operation.
A stream of information entered his mind!
[Ding! Discovered lv91 rare boss, successfully completing the surgery can earn special equipment!]
Upon hearing the sound, Chen Cang ignored it.
Currently, in his eyes, there’s only the surgery.
Finally!
With less than 70 seconds, Chen Cang completed the separation and excision of the abnormal right pulmonary vein.
Next was the anastomosis of the vein and atrium!
Chen Cang had no time to be excited, staring at the continuously beating heart, he began choosing the most suitable anastomosis point!
The difficulty was a bit high!
How to handle it?
Moreover, there wasn’t a large tissue clamp to prevent massive bleeding caused by the heart’s movement.
This surgery was no longer a simple beating-heart surgery.
Dragging?
There’s no time for delay!
How to manage, directly act?!
Thinking of this, Chen Cang gritted his teeth, ready to start the procedure.
At this time, Chen fully exposed the left and right atrium and atrial groove, with three phone flashlights illuminating this heart.
Chen Cang’s hands rested upon the heart, choosing the most suitable leverage point and anastomosis site!
Breathing gradually weakened.
Chen Cang slowly opened his eyes.
But at this moment, his eyes were filled with determination.
"Needle holder!"
"Saline!"
"Fixation with tissue clamp here!" Chen Cang directed.
Deng Ming decisively executed!
Upon the fixation of the tissue clamp, Chen Cang swiftly incised the atrium.
A bit of blood rapidly spurted out, and Chen Cang decisively absorbed it with the hemostatic gauze.
Then, began the direct anastomosis of the abnormal right pulmonary vein to the left atrium!
This process was indeed extremely challenging!
The suturing speed must be fast!
The suturing density must be fine!
The suturing skill must be high!
Chen Cang’s hands were already executing at top speed.
Adrenaline was surging through Chen Cang’s body at this moment.
Time ticked away, second by second!
Finally!
Chen Cang successfully performed the direct anastomosis of the abnormal right pulmonary vein to the left atrium.
Successful!
Finally achieved.
Chen Cang was now sweaty all over, with his hair sticking closely to his head.
The light from the phone was really too hot!
Clung above his head, it felt like an electric fan.
Made Chen Cang drenched with sweat!
The lights were overly dazzling, and everyone watching the surgery were too focused.
They hadn’t realized the elevator light had already come on.
Only reacted when the phone rang, the elevator was fixed!
"Doctor, can we go?"
Chen Cang nodded to the family members and said: "Alright, let’s go down."
The elevator had already stopped on the first floor!
At the moment you open it.
Wu Tongpu and others saw Chen Cang had completed the surgery!
He already removed the tissue clamp and hemostatic clamp.
Seeing the lively beating heart and the needle holder in Chen Cang’s hand, Wu Tongpu realized one thing...
Did this kid really do it?
