Chapter 1038: Surgical New Approaches
Create an artificial blood vessel to connect the right atrium and the obstructed end of the inferior vena cava, bypassing the blockage.
Another doctor suggested further ideas based on the realistic scenarios.
“It doesn’t have to be atrial-caval shunt, it could also be intestinal-atrial shunt or splenic-atrial shunt. Because it’s uncertain which thod is better, they use TEE to estimate which surgical procedure would be most beneficial for the patient.”
Intestinal-atrial shunt and splenic-atrial shunt, just like atrial-caval shunt, as the nas imply, only differ in that the end of the inferior vena cava is replaced by the superior senteric vein or splenic vein to connect with the right atrium, likewise creating an artificial blood vessel to bypass the obstructed segnt.
“What you all say makes sense, but if Dr. Tao’s team wants to try this, I think they can be a bit bolder with their thinking. They can attempt to combine these various shunt procedures.”
This speculation might be the ultimate answer.
There have been many research papers published on shunt procedures and Buja syndro. Colleagues discussing this are by no ans unfamilar with it and are confident that what’s being done in the surgery is definitely a shunt procedure.
It seems that colleagues from the nearby hospital have reached a consensus, but the area where the Guoxie surgeons are seated is almost silent—a deep solemnity of professionalism perates the atmosphere.
In truth, they were just as stunned internally by this unexpected surgical scene as their colleagues from outside the institution.
The main reason is they had never seen their own Hepatobiliary Surgery Departnt perform such bold and unorthodox surgical thods. Those in the Hepatobiliary Surgery Departnt are conservatives, never expect them to pull off sothing seemingly incomprehensible in a surgery without an ergent situation. Besides, even though not discussing Hepatobiliary Surgery, it’s unlikely anyone from other departnts would dare to do so.
“Is it Tao Zhijie performing the surgery?” Yu Xuexian doubted, turning his head to quietly ask the people from General Surgery Departnt Two. As an internist, he rarely wandered into the operating room and wasn’t as familiar with Tao Zhijie’s surgeries.
The individuals from General Surgery Departnt Two seem to exhibit a hesitant expression.
“It’s Student Xiao Xie,” Sun Yubo let out, then realizing he might have spoken out of turn, quickly covered his mouth and nervously glanced over at Tan Kelin, worried about being scolded.
Tan Kelin wasn’t particularly fond of letting his proud disciple show off.
“Who did you say? Xie Wanying?” Yu Xuexian thought he heard wrong and turned to ask Zhu Huicang again, “They say it’s her, do you know?”
Zhu Huicang shook his head, looking back at him: How could I know? I can’t see without being in the operating room, how could I know the exact situation inside.
General Surgery Departnt Two is talking nonsense, Yu Xuexian thought.
So doctors from the opposite hospital who enjoy speaking at length were very excited by the discussion, as if intoxicated by their own ideas, they continued to debate incessantly.
“Dr. Tao is experinting on different blood vessels to discern which vessel’s connection has the least impact on the heart and is most in line with the patient’s original hemodynamics. Once a new vascular connection is established, it essentially creates a major lateral circulation, which can reduce the risk of severe hemorrhage during surgery to the lowest possible. Because, apparently, there is sothing up with this patient’s heart.”
These speakers, one by one, seed to turn into worms inside Tao Zhijie’s belly, believing they understood his surgical thinking very well and loudly praising Tao Zhijie.
“This is a new thought process we hadn’t considered, broadening our surgical thinking. Dr. Tao, as a nationally renowned middle-aged expert in hepatobiliary surgery, seems set to broaden our horizons today.”
