“There are a total of two patients who can go on the operating table today. One of them is a middle hepatic lobectomy, and the other is a patient who has a tumor thrombus in the hepatobiliary duct.”Liang Xue and Ling ran walked side by side, and when they spoke up to this point.., liang Xue said a little hesitantly, “These two patients are also patients who have accumulated experience in the past. They have not decided whether they want to perform surgery or not.”

The middle hepatic lobe and the hepatobiliary duct were very difficult to deal with in the liver. The Middle Hepatic Lobe was once considered a forbidden area in liver surgery. Because of its location, it was surrounded by the large blood vessels that were abundant in the liver, it belonged to the central area of the liver, so it was very difficult to remove it. Moreover, unlike other parts where there was only one wound after removal, the middle hepatic lobe would have two wounds after removal. The suture and recovery of the wound was a big problem.

In the past, Wu Mengchao spent a few months doing animal experiments in the laboratory. After accumulating a lot of experience, only in the summer of 1963 did the Chinese make a breakthrough in this field. It was also this surgery that elevated Wu Mengchao from a “Knife”in the field of Chinese surgery to a “Knife”in the field of surgery in the world.

These two surgeries belonged to the extremely difficult type in the field of liver surgery. Even after Wu Mengchao had explored this field for half a century.., it was still a field that many directors of the Department of General Surgery or the department of Liver Surgery of the top tertiary grade A hospitals in the region had never been involved in.

If these two surgeries were open surgeries for Ling ran, it would be normal. They were also the type of surgeries that Ling ran had performed before.

However, they were going to perform the Da Vinci robotic surgery today. It would be a little difficult for them to make a choice between these two surgeries.

Liang Xue was even more unwilling to let Ling ran and the others understand that it would be difficult, so, he explained, “The main reason is that we spoke too quickly. Yesterday happened to be the day of our department director Li’s surgery. We performed the other surgeries, and there are only two left. We’re waiting for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to perform the surgery.”

Hearing Liang Xue’s words, Zuo Cidian, who was behind the two of them, immediately asked, “From what you said, director Li hasn’t decided whether to perform these two surgeries yet.”

“Yes, the two patients’physical conditions are quite good, but director Li is still a little hesitant. According to the plan, he wants to invite a freelance surgeon from Beijing...”Liang Xue was a little embarrassed, “We suddenly proposed to do a hepatectomy. There are only two suitable patients here, or we’ll have to wait for a few days.”

“He was originally preparing to do an open surgery?”Zuo Cidian asked.

Liang Xue nodded and said, “Director Li’s main projects from last year to this year are the middle hepatic lobe and hepatobiliary duct.”

In fact, Zuo Cidian could already guess the cause and effect without him saying anything.

These two surgeries were equivalent to the improvement papers or additional questions that director Li prepared for himself. It was one of the efforts he made to improve himself. For safety reasons, he invited experts from the capital to come over to support him or simply to give him guidance.

High-level doctors basically followed these two growth paths. They either received training from super-high-level doctors in high-level hospitals, climbed all the way from resident doctors to associate chief physicians, accepted the mantle of the strong, and the losers left their home. Or they set up their own families and traveled the world of martial arts, visiting famous teachers, self-reliant, researching, and achieving the future..

Of course, the two paths of growth could be crossed. It was just that the former could become the latter at any time, and the latter’s probability of becoming the former was much lower.

“Then, is Doctor Ling going to cooperate with you in the surgery, or is he going to cooperate with chief physician Li?”Zuo Cidian thought for a moment and asked a crucial question.

Liang Xue looked at Zuo Cidian with admiration and said, “If you don’t mind, I’ll Be Your Assistant.”

“That’s fine.”Zuo Cidian was relieved. He looked at Ling ran and said, “Doctor Ling, which surgery do you think we should do?”

“We’ll do the middle lobe first. It takes a lot of time to remove the tumor thrombus in the hepatobiliary duct,”Ling ran said very naturally.

Zuo Cidian looked at Liang Xue without being surprised. He smiled and said, “Department director, Shall We do the Middle Hepatic Lobe First?”

“Okay.”Liang Xue did not waste any more time.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Both he and Zuo Cidian knew very well that they had abandoned department director Li in this round.

However, it was only normal for them to abandon him. Liang Xue had originally wanted to follow Ling ran in performing hepatectomy. In fact, his skills in performing open hepatectomy might be a little worse than department director Li’s. It could be said that he was not qualified to challenge the middle hepatic lobe. After all, the direction of his clinical development was not hepatectomy.

However, the taste of using the Da Vinci robot as the middle lobe of the liver was different.

Just in this field alone, using the Da Vinci robot to perform surgery on the middle lobe of the liver was considered advanced internationally. This kind of advancement was recognized not only by the hospital, but also by the medical community in the country, even foreign hospitals and the medical community would recognize it. With just a little operation, the Da Vinci Robot’s intuitive surgery company would probably be willing to help promote it.

Even though this was a little beyond Liang Xue’s previous plan, when he thought about Ling ran’s previous level of operation and Ling ran’s skill in hepatectomy, Liang Xue was actually very confident.

If he thought about it from the worst-case scenario, at worst, Da Vinci’s surgery would fail, and he would just switch to performing a laparotomy.

And with Ling Ran’s battle record, switching to performing a laparotomy for the middle hepatic lobe was too easy.

As for whether department director Li was happy or not, Liang Xue did not really care about this when it came to the interpersonal relationships within the department. Moreover, he was already considering stepping into department director Li’s professional field. Even if he used a more reasonable and tactful method, department director Li would still be unhappy when he should be unhappy.

As the few of them spoke, they decided on the next surgery. Liang Xue did not hesitate anymore. He led Ling ran and the others directly to the ward.

“Doctor.”

“Department Director Liang.”

The patient’s family members had been waiting for a long time. When they saw the doctors enter the ward, they stood up.

“Take a look at the patient’s condition.”Liang Xue did not introduce Ling ran. He went forward first, rubbed his hands together, and placed them on the patient’s abdomen for a physical examination.

He made a slight confirmation of the patient’s condition before he gave the position to Ling ran.

When he was doing the physical examination, Ling ran had already used alcohol-based hand sanitizer to wipe his hands. At this moment, he also rubbed his hands together and went forward to examine the patient more carefully.

Perfect level physical examination skills, Lion King level actual combat experience, and the fact that the lightning dragon had a large appetite for dissection gave Ling ran a large amount of information in an extremely short period of time.

The patient was a slightly older middle-aged woman. She was a little groggy when she received the infusion, but she gradually frowned under Ling ran’s pressure, but she still did not say a word.

The patient’s son frowned slightly as well. He looked at Liang Xue and said, “Chief physician, if we’re teaching and practicing, it shouldn’t take too long...”

“Doctor Ling and I will perform today’s surgery together.”Liang Xue understood what the other party meant, so he replied with one sentence.

The patient’s son immediately expressed his understanding and quickly said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t say what happened. It’s just that my mother is sick and she’s a little anxious. Please don’t take it to heart.”

“It’s fine.”Zuo Cidian patted the other party’s shoulder and comforted him, “Director Liang and Doctor Ling’s skills are very good. They’re already sick. It’s a good thing that they’re performing surgery on your mother.”

“HMM...”the patient’s son fell silent.

The patient’s mother looked at her son and sighed. “I’m actually fine. It’s just that this illness is too much of a burden to the child. Actually, if you ask me...”

“Mom.”The son quickly interrupted his mother’s voice. “I was too busy previously. I’ll rest for a period of time after resting for a period of time. Don’t worry about this...”

The doctors present were used to listening to the conversations between patients and their family members, but when they thought about the part where they were “Too busy,”they still felt the same way.

Liang Xue swallowed his saliva. His excitement from preparing for the surgery gradually calmed down.

Ling ran still looked calm, but after he completed the physical examination step by step, he quietly called out the virtual human and went through the examination again.

“Rest well. Don’t think too much about it.”After the physical examination was over, Liang Xue gave him a few extra words of advice before he left the room.

The group of people returned to the corridor and became much quieter.

“I thought of what Old Master Wu Mengchao said.”Liang Xue suddenly sighed and said, “A good doctor sees illness in his eyes, but he thinks about people in his heart.”
