The Surgeon’s Studio Chapter 419 - Ten Thousand Whys

Chapter 419: Ten Thousand Whys

Gao Shaojie was focused on performing the surgery. His hand was very steady; every step was very careful and serious.
The surgery was particularly smooth. It only took him slightly over two hours to successfully complete the puncture.
Gao Shaojie was a little happy that the most critical step was completed.
The surgery went smoothly and the doctors were happy, especially due to the fact that it was the TIPS surgery—a procedure that heavily relied on luck.
The patient’s vital signs were stable as the stent was placed and the portal vein and hepatic vein were set up. The surgery ended around three hours later.
“Teacher Gao, you’re lucky today, ” Wang Qiang said with a smile.
Since he was quite familiar with Gao Shaojie, he did not need to flatter him. The most important thing in the TIPS surgery was luck. Being Blunt was sometimes a form of flattery.
Gao Shaojie smiled and felt a little proud of himself.
Even when he performed TIPS in the Affiliated Hospital of the Provincial Medical University, it was rarely so smooth.
He took off his sterile gloves and walked out of the operating room. He went to the operating room and began to study the images. He also left behind some backup information.
This was Gao Shaojie’s habit.
Firstly, it was used to explain the surgery to the patient’s family, and secondly, it was used as materials for his academic thesis.
Gao Shaojie had insisted on this practice ever since he started working.
While he was busy, a nurse’s voice came from the corridor. “Xu Liang, is it?”
“Yes, I’m Xu Liang.”
“Come in with me.”
Which surgery had just started? Gao Shaojie was a little disdainful.
He had come from the Provincial Capital and even planned to arrive one day earlier just so that he could get into the operation theatre at 8:30 in the morning. He did not expect this doctor from Sea City to be so arrogant. He actually…
He subconsciously glanced at the time. It was 11:45.
He actually came to perform the surgery at this time?
‘Doctors nowadays are really…’ Gao Shaojie shook his head and continued to edit the video.
However, it seemed that only ten seconds had passed when the sound of a flat car came from the corridor.
“Zhao Jinhua’s family member, come and push the wheelchair!” The door of the operating theater opened and the sound from outside could be heard clearly.
Uh…
Gao Shaojie knew that he seemed to have guessed wrong.
Judging from the order, it should be that the surgery had been completed and the next patient was being called.
That fast? His surgery was considered very smooth, but that surgery seemed to be a little faster than him.
“That can’t be right?” Gao Shaojie was a little puzzled.
He stood up and walked to the corridor. He saw the lead gate of one of the operating rooms slowly closing.
The Secondary Hospital had an intervention department but the operating room was not big. There were only two operating rooms, so it was very easy to find.
It was not like the Affiliated Hospital of the Provincial Capital Medical University. It was very difficult to find a person in ten operating rooms.
Gao Shaojie was full of doubts. He quietly went to the operator console room of another operating room.
There were more than ten people standing inside. Some were sitting and some were standing.
However, it was different from the usual of an operator console room. Although there were many people, no one was chatting. Everyone was focused on looking at the situation inside through the lead-lined glass.
“Has the surgery just started?” Gao Shaojie used his arm to nudge a young doctor who was standing in the corner and asked in a low voice.
“The eighth surgery is already the last one. Why are you only here now?” The young doctor said absent-mindedly. He did not even look at Gao Shaojie. He just stared at the operating table in the lead-lined glass.
“How many surgeries are there in total?” Gao Shaojie was stunned. He must have misunderstood something. The surgery inside was definitely not TIPS surgery.
His skill was so smooth and he had just finished one surgery. How could that person perform eight surgeries in a row here?
He did not question it. Instead, he watched quietly.
Through the lead-lined glass, Gao Shaojie could clearly see a tall foreigner disinfecting and laying a sterile sheet.
Was he the professor from Heidelberg University that the subordinate of Wang Qiang had mentioned? Even if he was a professor from Heidelberg University, he should not have such a high standard.
‘They must have performed a relatively simple surgery, and it was very crude,’ Gao Shaojie thought to himself.
However, why did everyone from the Secondary Hospital go and help? Why did they let the foreign professor work alone?
Gao Shaojie had a question in his heart when he was not looking at the surgery. But after taking a look, he had ten questions in his mind.
Soon, the lead gate of the operating room slowly closed.
This meant that the surgery had already begun.
Gao Shaojie was stunned to see the tall foreigner’s figure moved to the side of the patient’s leg, obviously standing in the position of an assistant.
This…
This was something Gao Shaojie could not understand.
To Gao Shaojie, it did not matter who did the surgery.
However, was a foreign professor coming all the way to China just to disinfect, lay sheets, and be an assistant?
The puncture and the wire guiding were not visible from where he was standing. However, Gao Shaojie could vaguely see from the point of puncture that it should be a jugular vein puncture.
Could it be that he was performing TIPS surgery? No Way!
Gao Shaojie felt that he had ten thousand questions ever since he stepped into this operator console room. There were countless questions in his heart, but none of them could be answered.
Soon, the screen in the operating room lit up.
It was really a TIPS surgery!
Gao Shaojie saw an extremely familiar image. Although it was slightly different because of the patient’s individual differences, the portal vein and hepatic vein appeared on the LCD screen in a bright light.
‘Perhaps he was not performing TIPS surgery before this one, and I coincidentally walked in when he perform a TIPS,’ Gao Shaojie gave himself a ‘reasonable’ explanation.
Were they going to put a tube in the hepatic vein to mark it and then successfully perform the puncture? This was the most popular method in the world at the moment. However, because the cost of marking a tube was relatively high, and the surgery was relatively new to the industry, there were very few people in the country who knew how to do this.
Gao Shaojie guessed.
Since it was a foreign professor who was guiding the surgery, it should be this kind of surgery. Although Gao Shaojie knew that there were many flaws in this guess, that was all he could guess.
However, his guess was wrong again.
The needle went in and directly hit the wall of the portal vein. The position was not even adjusted. It was pierced directly!
F*CK… Gao Shaojie’s heart tightened.
This surgery was too bold and unconstrained.
All of the TIPS surgeries that Gao Shaojie had seen before, all of them struggled at this step. They had to carefully looked and looked, constantly changing their positions to find the correct one. They were like snipers, carefully trying to get shot.
However, all the opponents that the doctors faced were illnesses that were cunning as foxes. Trying to get a headshot with a single shot was an extravagant hope.
He did not look stressed and on top of that his actions were so casual…
Gao Shaojie was only surprised by the carelessness of the surgeons. Before he could even look down on them or sigh with emotion, he saw the membrane-covered stent appear on the screen along the guide wire.
What…
Did it work?
No Way!
He was surprised because he knew there was more to this surgeon…
Questions… From one to ten, from ten to…
No, no, no.
Gao Shaojie held his breath and watched foolishly as the membrane stent entered and inserted itself into the guide wire left by the needle. Then…
Venous access established. Surgery…over!
Wha-God Damn it!
That was a surgery?!
