Surgery Godfather Chapter 1442 - 1442 1076 A Difficult Decision

Chapter 1442: Chapter 1076: A Difficult Decision Chapter 1442: Chapter 1076: A Difficult Decision Director Fang made rapid progress with the help of Yang Ping. After performing an abdominal organ cluster transplantation surgery under Yang’s guidance, he felt as if he had acquired incredible abilities, seeing a significant boost in his skills.

That abdominal organ cluster transplantation surgery was the first of its kind in Asia. At that ti, Yang Ping was the chief surgeon, and he was the first assistant. After the successful completion of the surgery, Director Fang took the data from that operation and lectured about it extensively, establishing a preliminary reputation in the academic world. Later, he followed Yang to complete many tumor ex-vivo resections and autotransplant surgeries, amassing dozens of cases. There weren’t many hospitals in the country that could perform such surgeries, and in terms of both surgical difficulty and volu, Director Fang completely outperford the rest. Consequently, owing to these complex surgeries, Director Fang quickly beca renowned in the circles of hepatobiliary surgery, pancreatic surgery, and gastrointestinal surgery.

With Yang’s assistance, Director Fang was like soone with a ga cheat enabled; he dared to perform any surgery. If a doctor has a highly skilled and willing ntor during their developnt, progress is sure to be rapid. Otherwise, one remains stagnant.

“Be careful, take it slow, no rush, I’ll handle it gently.”

Director Fang reminded the assistants not to make rash moves, as it was a critical mont in separating the tissues, and any carelessness could lead to a bloody ss on the operating table.

“Professor! Can you take a look?” When faced with difficulties, Director Fang could only seek help from Yang Ping.

Yang Ping did not scrub in or dress for surgery; he rely sat below the operation platform. Hearing the plea, he stood about a ter away and looked into the surgical field. The patrolling nurse, quick-witted, imdiately brought over a step stool. Yang Ping stood on the stool, which allowed him a better and broader view from above. Director Fang and his assistants imdiately cleared a path for observation and used retractors to make the surgical field even more visible.

With just a glance, Yang Ping casually said, “The order of dealing with several blood vessels at the hepatic portal is reversed. Such surgery needs to be personalized; you can’t always follow the textbook. Try reversing the order of handling the blood vessels now.”

Reverse it? Director Fang didn’t fully understand the rationale, but faithfully followed Yang’s advice. He imdiately changed his strategy and inverted the sequence of dealing with blood vessels. As he proceeded, he found that Yang was indeed correct; after reversing the order, the difficulty surprisingly decreased substantially. It wasn’t as challenging as it had initially seed, and now he felt the procedures were getting easier.

The assistants on the operating table were also amazed. Professor Yang had solved the surgical problem with just one sentence. Although Director Fang was the chief surgeon, he had been walking a tightrope monts ago, but now he moved comfortably, seemingly walking on solid ground, and the speed of the surgery significantly increased.

Where were we just now?

Right, we were discussing the weight-loss stomach surgery. Director Fang needed to find a topic that would interest Yang Ping. Yang had initiated the topic himself, so he must be interested. This would prevent Yang from feeling bored and leaving the operating room prematurely. After all, Yang was very busy and short on ti, so to keep him around longer, Director Fang needed to co up with sothing.

“There are many articles online that completely denigrate weight-loss stomach surgery, making it sound utterly terrifying,” one doctoral assistant expressed.

“Actually, the surgery isn’t that horrifying. A lot of exaggerated online essays demonize the surgery for sensationalism. When other weight-loss thods are ineffective and obesity poses a serious health threat, this surgery can certainly be used for weight-loss. In most cases, it’s not that the surgery is ineffective, but rather the hospitals and doctors performing it are not competent,” said Director Fang, while operating and conversing, fully exuding confidence in his high level of weight-loss stomach surgery expertise.

When a nurse heard that Yang Ping had co, she imdiately ran over with CT scans in tow—those of her mother’s lungs, a thick stack. She maintained a safe distance from the operating table and circled around to Yang’s side.

“Professor Yang, are you busy right now?” the nurse asked sowhat embarrassedly.

Busy but not busy—sitting below with nothing to do; not busy but busy—involved in overseeing the operation with Director Fang.

Yang Ping said, “Go ahead!”

“This is my mother’s lung CT scan, could you please take a look?” she made her request, knowing how difficult it usually is to ask for Yang’s help, as he primarily works at the Surgical Research Institute and seldom visits the surgery building. Having learned from Director Fang that Yang would be there today, she brought the CT scans first thing in the morning, ready to seize this precious opportunity.

“Let have a look!” Yang Ping stood up and moved to the light box.

The nurse took out the CT scans. Unfamiliar with them, she didn’t know where to start. Yang Ping took it upon himself to quickly inspect the CT scans by the light box to understand the chronological order before sequentially hanging them for review.

“We went to the Provincial Hospital in our hotown, and the doctors there said it’s lung cancer and suggested a resection,” the nurse explained the patient’s dical history to provide background for Yang.

Yang did not respond; he continued examining the scans while listening and finally said, “Postpone the surgery; this is likely an inflammatory nodule. Start with an anti-infection treatnt for a month, then have a follow-up. If the nodule shrinks, it’s likely an inflammatory nodule.”

“Inflammatory nodule? Not a tumor?” the nurse was pleasantly surprised.

Yang nodded, “Doesn’t seem like a tumor, likely an inflammatory nodule.” No one can be a hundred percent certain in such matters. Even pathological examinations can make mistakes, let alone imaging diagnosis. Therefore, Yang Ping spoke cautiously, a typical doctor’s prudence.
