Surgery Godfather Chapter 1027 - 1027 849 Sloppy Today

Chapter 1027: Chapter 849: Sloppy Today Chapter 1027: Chapter 849: Sloppy Today Eating lobster was secondary; the crux was in peeling the lobster. Except for Lu Xiaobao, everyone had mastered the technique of using chopsticks to peel lobster, only differing in proficiency.

Lu Xiaobao, who ate the most lobsters, had the worst technique. When it ca to beheading, tailing, and shelling, Dr. Lu always got stuck at the shelling step. It seed that he still had to keep eating lobsters.

Since they agreed beforehand that only chopsticks could be used for the entire process of peeling the lobsters, and hands were not allowed, everyone’s table was piled up with shrimp shells by the end, except for the pitiful few in front of Lu Xiaobao.

It was his treat, in his “father-in-law’s” restaurant, and he, who loved eating lobster the most, barely managed to eat a few lobsters because his skills were inferior. He had no one to bla but himself.

At the end, Yang Ping took photos with Lu Xiaobao’s girlfriend and classmates. There was no helping it; they were all brothers, and he had to give them face. Actually, girls just like to post on Monts, but of course, that wasn’t the only reason.

They followed along not only to see Yang Ping but also with another purpose in mind—they hoped to organize a mixer, after all, whether male or female, there were still single people studying dicine.

It wasn’t that these girls couldn’t find boyfriends; it was just that their standards were even stricter than those for evaluating senior professional titles.

For example, they required a PhD for educational qualifications, a 985 or 211 school, and even had requirents for the number and citation index of SCI papers. This wasn’t looking for a boyfriend; this was evaluating professional titles.

These girls, hearing that a classmate had found a boyfriend from Xiehe, imdiately flocked out. Those doctors from Xiehe, who were PhDs, practically spent 24 hours a day in the hospital every day—how could they have girlfriends?

They didn’t care—they set up a group first and then organized so mixer events. Lu Xiaobao’s girlfriend wasn’t a pushover; raised on lobster, she clearly stood out and was also a leader in the Student Union of First School of dicine, with a strong ability to organize. If they really got together in the future, Lu Xiaobao would be totally under her thumb.

They didn’t dare to play too late into the night, and Yang Ping stayed in the guesthouse for one night.

Professor Liang went out to attend an academic conference this ti and talked with Yang Ping on the phone for a long ti.

The next day, surgeries started as normal. Yang Ping had not only to perform his own surgeries but also to help Director Wen from Cardiac Surgery Departnt with vascular anastomosis.

The first surgery was a nerve root decompression for a cervical spine tumor. In the critical steps, Yang Ping was the chief surgeon himself. He perford the excision of the tumors affecting the nerve roots in bilateral intervertebral foramina of cervical 3/4, 4/5, 5/6, and 6/7 to eliminate the compression on the nerve roots by the tumor, thereby alleviating or eliminating the patient’s pain.

This surgery was indeed very difficult. The excision of tumors in these locations was extrely challenging. During the excision process, it was very easy to damage the spinal cord and nerve roots, which could lead to paralysis.

The vertebrae are irregular bones with a relatively complex anatomical structure, and the intervertebral foramina composed of the superior and inferior vertebrae are even more complex, completely qualifying as anatomical crannies. The nerve roots erge from the spinal cord, generally travel downward for a distance, and then turn left and right to exit through the bilateral intervertebral foramina, extending to the trunk and limbs. The nerves from the cervical spine mainly extend to the upper limbs and upper part of the trunk, while the nerves from the lumbar spine generally extend to the lower half of the trunk and lower limbs, each with their fixed distributions.

Once the nerve roots are damaged, they cause sensory and motor disorders in their distribution areas. If the spinal cord is damaged, it leads to paraplegia below the level of the spinal cord.

Performing surgery in such anatomical crannies requires extrely ticulous operation, using either a scalpel or an even more precise laser knife. Every move is like dancing on the tip of a knife.

The operating room was filled with people. Apart from the doctors participating in the surgery, the rest were there to observe. Doctors from other departnts, when free, would also co to take a look, just to join in on the excitent. Yang Ping’s departnt was considered special within Xiehe, surrounded by near-mythical stories, and they were eager to witness this mythical level of surgical skill.

So who had seen Yang Ping’s surgery before would exaggerate their tales, gradually making Yang Ping a legend at Xiehe. So had not yet seen it and longed to witness this legendary level of excellence for themselves.

Moreover, with all doctors in this departnt being under the age of 35, doctors from other departnts also wanted to know just what kind of marvels they could create.

The Orthopedics’ patient had already been anesthetized. Song Yun started scrubbing in with junior doctors. In the adjacent operating room, Kong Weiquan was preparing to begin a cervical spine surgery with his team. Kong Weiquan completing the procedure was not an issue; Yang Ping just needed to oversee it.

Director Wen from the Cardiac Surgery Departnt had also started working, and the anesthesiologist had begun administering anesthesia.

Yang Ping had a plan. He let Song Yun begin exposing the cervical spine tumor here, estimating that the pace of exposure and the opening of the chest in the Cardiac Surgery Departnt wouldn’t differ much. Once the chest was opened there, the internal mammary artery would be harvested imdiately. After harvesting the internal mammary artery, Yang Ping would assist in the bypass. Of course, Yang Ping would just assist; if they could manage it themselves, Yang Ping wouldn’t need to step in.

Since he still had to go to the Cardiac Surgery Departnt’s operating room after that, Yang Ping didn’t scrub in for now.

Over at the Cardiac Surgery Departnt, the patient was also anesthetized, positioned properly, and the junior doctor began to disinfect and lay out the drapes.

Director Zhang from Shanghai Children’s dical Center, invited by Director Wen, was already seated in the operating room. This had been agreed upon in advance, so Director Wen still requested Director Zhang’s assistance.

A regular coronary bypass was no big deal for Director Wen; he was very proficient. However, this case was of a very young age, with very thin blood vessels. Director Wen completely lacked experience in this area, and when it ca to bypassing such fine coronary arteries with relentless pulsating, he was totally uncertain about accomplishing a vascular anastomosis.
