Chapter 879: Chapter 777: Diamond Set nu Chapter 879: Chapter 777: Diamond Set nu At the ti, Sanbo Hospital was a newly built hospital, and because land wasn’t as valuable as it is now, the governnt allocated a large and fairly square-shaped piece of land.
Besides the main building for internal and surgical wards, the rest of the buildings were no taller than eight stories. The so-called spare building was constructed in excess during the housing boom and was left unused, intended for future needs.
The spare building was also an eight-story structure, situated in a secluded corner of the hospital and had been left abandoned and unused. Yang Ping wanted a room to serve as a surgery laboratory for future experints with new surgical techniques and devices on animals.
Dean Xia waved his hand magnanimously and said, “Take the entire building for yourself. I’ll have the Logistics Departnt find a designer for you. You can directly communicate with the designer and make all the decisions about the design and renovation of the building.”
Asking for an entire building might seem extravagant, but Yang Ping thought that other departnts would also need it in the future, so he happily accepted it.
“I want to bring ten pigs to our hospital for simulated surgeries. That won’t be a problem, will it?” Yang Ping asked Dean Xia.
The disturbing possibility of a hospital filled with the piercing screams of pigs would leave any Dean at a loss, so Yang Ping inford him beforehand.
Dean Xia still displayed his generous spirit, “You can even start a pig farm in the hospital, I’ll even help you get the licenses from the business and livestock departnts.”
Yang Ping was speechless, perhaps only Sanbo’s Dean Xia would allow him to raise pigs.
With this building at their disposal, Comprehensive Surgery could ‘separate’ its research from its clinical operations in the future.
As the departnt developed, the number of laboratories would certainly increase. It was not feasible to have them cramped in the sa building as the wards.
Therefore, Comprehensive Surgery’s experints could move to this new building, dedicating one building to clinical work and another entirely to research.
Li Guodong had the responsibility to communicate with Nandu dical University’s Animal Departnt to ensure the smooth progression of the experints. Buying ten pigs at once qualified as a large custor; the Animal Departnt at Nandu dical University offered a comprehensive service package, which included delivery and a professional team to help with the entire experint, all for a fee, of course.
The representative recomnded purchasing their “diamond package,” making the process more convenient. Thus, Li Guodong generously bought the “diamond package” service from Nandu dical University’s Animal Departnt.
With the word spreading that Sanbo Hospital would regularly conduct animal surgery experints, they were keen to establish a long-term partnership with the Comprehensive Surgery Departnt; thus, they attached great importance to the quality of their service.
The hospital buzzed with the news that ten pigs were being used for surgeries. After the recent events with the paper incident, everyone felt the need to refresh their perception of the Comprehensive Surgery Departnt.
While the aftermath of the paper incident was yet to die down, the arrival of ten pigs at the hospital was the latest spectacle no one wanted to miss.
Everything was ready, and the experint on heart muscle rotary cutting surgery with the pigs comnced as scheduled.
The scene was bustling; the entire departnt of Comprehensive Surgery ceased operations. Except for those on duty, everyone participated in the surgery experint, with many doctors, PhDs, Masters, and standardized training students from inside the hospital coming to gawk.
Outsiders like Director Gao from Comprehensive Surgery would not miss such a significant opportunity and arrived early at the spare building’s entrance.
The director of Sanbo Hospital’s Departnt of Thoracic Surgery, along with several other doctors, also ca to observe. Comprehensive Surgery was well-known as the birthplace of cutting-edge technology at Sanbo Hospital, and everyone wanted to learn sothing authentic.
Robert and August assisted Li Guodong and others with the final preparations for the laboratory, adding and supplenting so equipnt.
Dean Xia, Director Han, and Director Zhao were all very busy, but curiosity gets the better of everyone, and they took ti out of their hectic schedules to co and observe.
It was indeed a rarity to conduct ten consecutive heart surgeries on pigs!
The capabilities of Nandu dical University’s Animal Departnt were quite impressive; they brought ten uniform experintal pigs on a specialized truck.
In addition to the truck, there was a van and a minibus.
The van transported an eight-person technical support team: two veterinarians, two breeders, two laboratory technicians, and two security guards.
The minibus was loaded with a cargo of equipnt, various tools, instrunts, and drugs.
The comprehensive “diamond package” selected by Comprehensive Surgery deserved a lavish accompanying team. As long as you pay for the relevant package, you don’t have to worry about a thing; the eight-person team takes care of everything, even the anesthesia is handled by the veterinarians, leaving the custor to focus on their work.
Each pig was placed inside a ventilated iron box; there were ten boxes in total. They carried each iron box one by one into the prep room, where a so-called “restraint cloth” had already been laid inside each box.
The technician opened the lid of the tal box, and the veterinarian opened his toolkit, deftly selecting a size 14 needle for the tal animal syringe. He drew an anesthetic and injected it into the pig’s butt inside the box—it was done swiftly, and the pig quickly beca drowsy, completing the pre-anesthesia sedation.
Four people skillfully lifted the “restraining cloth” by the handles on both sides, and the pig inside the box was directly lifted out.
It turned out this “restraining cloth” was made of thick canvas with four holes, each hole perfectly aligning with a pig’s legs. As they hoisted it up, the pig’s legs slid into the holes naturally, and thus the pig was wrapped and secured in the cloth, transferred from the iron box to the operating table.
By the ti the pig was moved onto the operating table, it was completely out of it. The four people quickly secured the experintal pig, and the veterinarian began intubation, followed by connection to the anesthesia machine for further general anesthesia.
Liang Fatty supervised the veterinarian’s drug usage. Although there were so differences between pigs and humans regarding anesthesia, Liang Fatty’s knowledge about anesthetic drugs was much more specialized than that of the veterinarian.
The pig was exceptionally clean; it was apparent that ticulous cleaning had been done before delivery.
“Rest assured, we even perford intestinal cleaning yesterday, and we’ve thoroughly prepared for the preoperative fasting and water deprivation,” said the veterinarian proudly.
“After the surgery, our caregivers will manage them for you, so you won’t have to worry about anything,” comnted a caregiver.
Not to be outdone, the technician added, “After you complete the surgery, we can recycle and deal with these pigs. We’ll also take care of the cleaning so rest assured, not a single piece of pig feces will be left behind.”
The security guard who accompanied them said, “We’ll take care of the safety aspect. The pig won’t hurt anyone, and when you need to do any asurents, we’ll be holding the restraining hoop ready. If there’s any unusual movent, we’ll hold it down for you right away.”
The deluxe package really is different.
Song Zimo and Xu Zhiliang completed the hand washing and disinfection according to the surgical procedure. The instrunt nurse on the operating table was Zhou Can, and Huang Jiahui handed the rotary cutter and its accompanying instrunts, which had been prepared under the table, to Zhou Can. The entire experint was conducted following the regular surgical procedure.
Since this was an experint, although the aseptic requirents weren’t as strict, they still needed to be managed. Otherwise, a postoperative infection could affect the observations.
Sanbo Hospital had never seen anything like this before—bringing in ten pigs at once for surgery. The area around the operating tables was crowded with people, and Zhang Lin Xiaowu maintained order, asking everyone to keep their distance from the operating tables.
Actually, Yang Ping had never done anything like this before either. The animal experints for the spinal external fixation fra used monkeys, and at that ti, the experints were conducted in Guilin, completed by the doctoral students from Xiehe.
It was also Yang Ping’s first ti doing surgeries directly at Sanbo Hospital.

It was heard that the backup building was bustling with activity. Professor Zhang Zongshun, Professor Cao, and Director Xin from Fuwai Hospital, concerned that they wouldn’t be able to get in due to the crowd, hastily made their way there.
“Professor Cao, what does the Comprehensive Surgery Departnt an?” Director Xin didn’t quite understand what this departnt specialized in.
Professor Cao explained, “That’s a unique departnt that performs all kinds of surgical operations, especially the ones that nobody else can do. You can think of it as a clinical surgical research and developnt departnt, similar to an all-terrain special forces unit in the military.”
“There’s such a departnt?” Director Xin was astounded. This was an eye-opener for him.
Professor Cao sighed, “Yeah, I’ve also never seen a departnt like this one. It feels a bit peculiar, like it doesn’t quite fit in, yet they’re capable of handling everything. The myocardial hypertrophy case I told you about, Professor Yang here plans to use a new thod. He calls it myocardial rotary ablation surgery. I invited you to provide oversight. If it truly is an advanced technique, you can learn from it too. But if it’s just frivolous nonsense, then the patient can be handed over to you for surgery.”
“Understood!” Director Xin grasped his teacher’s intention, which made his task clear.
Professor Zhang, Professor Cao, and Professor Xin arrived at the surgical laboratory, accompanied by Song Zimo. Director Xin was intimidated by the lineup; ten pigs were contained within the room, accompanied by veterinarians and technicians.
Professor Xin Weicong from Fuwai Hospital, deputized by Professor Cao, participated in the animal experint as an “observer” and had the best vantage point.
Director Xin was a top expert in cardiac surgery and was familiar with all types of surgeries for myocardial hypertrophy: modified Morrow’s operation through the thoracoscope, radiofrequency ablation, chemical ablation, and so on. However, he was unaware of any myocardial rotary ablation surgery perford via the apex of the heart. Presumably, the youth had seen the latest techniques in European and Arican countries and was eager to replicate them.
But having known all the major heart centers in the world, Director Xin had never heard of such a procedure. Could it be an obsolete technique that hadn’t been published or widely circulated? He pondered. If it were obsolete, Professor Yang wouldn’t be naive enough to pick it up. It’d be foolish to doubt the intelligence of soone who could publish 13 papers in CNS.
Director Xin’s involvent was spurred not only by his teacher’s invitation but also by the recent dical community buzz about “Brother 13″—the young man who published 13 CNS papers in three months, including several in a single issue. He was also curious about this distinguished individual.
Knowing that Director Xin was brought in as an “observer” by Professor Cao, Yang Ping took the matter very seriously and instructed Zhang Lin to arrange for the best viewing spot.
