Back to 1999: From operating surgeons to becoming a top doctor

"Can the operation be done? Is the situation dangerous?" The man spoke without saying much, interrupting Shen Yiwei's speech like a report.

Facing the sharp look in his eyes, Shen Yiwei felt a sense of superiority coming at him.

"Yes... can be done!" Shen Yiwei was determined and said immediately: "Laparoscopic surgery is safer and less traumatic. Compared with a few holes and a dozen centimeters of incision, the tolerance of the elderly must be different."

Shen Yiwei avoided the main point and talked about some professional terms. It seemed that this operation could only be done laparoscopically, but no one had ever noticed whether there had been any successful cases of similar operations before.

The situation was urgent, and it was not easy to get a surgical plan. Because it did not involve themselves, everyone automatically ignored the loopholes in Shen Yiwei's words.

"As long as the bleeding can be stopped, then do a laparoscopy. Is the Professor Xu you mentioned here?"

"I'll notify him and he'll be there soon." Shen Yiwei breathed a sigh of relief, immediately took out his cell phone and said, "I'll urge him again."

"Since laparoscopy is so good, in addition to helping stop the bleeding, can we directly remove the abdominal aortic aneurysm? I just heard you say that this thing can only be treated by surgery. Other means can only alleviate the condition and not cure the root cause."

Hearing this, Shen Yiwei's face was bitter. That was an abdominal aortic aneurysm. It was already very good to be able to temporarily stop the bleeding and save the life.

Even for patients with good foundation, major surgery may not work.

For the old man's case, if it is not an emergency, I am afraid that he will die halfway. I will definitely recommend that the patient be transferred to the Imperial Capital Hospital. After all, it has the best technology in the country. If he can't do it by then, there is nothing he can do.

Seeing that Shen Yiwei didn't speak, the dean knew that this problem was beyond his ability, so he hurriedly said.

"Minimally invasive technology has just started in China. Our Second Hospital has started it early. Now that we can stop the bleeding of the old man, it is considered a success. It is impossible to completely remove the aneurysm."

The director has spoken, and the man didn't say anything else, just nodded.

"Then I will contact Professor Xu as soon as possible and ask the operating room to prepare for the operation. Let's try to get the old man off the stage smoothly before dawn."

Shen Yiwei didn't dare to look at the man's eyes again. He felt guilty and could only make an excuse and leave the VIP ward with the phone.

...

"Xiao Xiao, save me!"

Xu Guoqiang, who came out of the high-ranking cadres' ward, called Xiao Chenguang directly.

Hearing the hurried voice on the phone, Xiao Chenguang knew that the blame was indeed on Xu Guoqiang.

"The general consultation suggested that you should go on stage to perform laparoscopic hemostasis?"

"Yes."

"Come back and tell me."

Xiao Chenguang shook his head. Shen Yiwei took the initiative to call Xu Guoqiang for consultation, so they must have reached a conclusion.

Even if Xu Guoqiang rushed over and wanted to argue and explain the situation, he would not give him the chance.

An 88-year-old man is a hot potato in any hospital. He may die if touched. Who dares to accept it easily?

What's more, the old man has basic diseases, and now there is a high risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture. It can be said that whoever touches him will be unlucky.

Shen Yiwei did not dare to operate and asked Xu Guoqiang to take the blame. First, his skills were really not good. Second, this operation, no matter who operated, would probably not be able to do it.

In fact, interventional surgery is the most suitable, but it is not available now. The only thing left is laparoscopic technology with relatively less trauma, which can be tried.

But the patient in front of him is indeed special.

Special does not mean special age or special illness.

The most important thing is his identity, which is too special.

For ordinary patients, if they encounter such a thing, they can communicate well and try it boldly on the stage. Even if it is difficult, it is better to dare to fight and fight for that ray of life than to wait for death.

But who dares to speak this kind of words easily to the person in the province?

If a person who can decide your fate with just a finger tells the truth, his career in this life will end here.

Decades of hard work have gone to waste.

So sometimes, some powerful people go to the hospital for treatment, and the people who treat the patients are afraid of being complained. Except for a group of people with good attitudes, who are like their own parents, the treatment methods are terrible.

Conservative, conservative, and conservative until death, never radical, if you do it well, it is what you should do, if you don’t do it well, it’s all your own fault.

Otherwise, the emperors in ancient times died inexplicably, after all, no one dared to really treat them.

"Xiao Xiao, you have to help me this time, otherwise I'm done for."

Just now in the high-ranking cadres' ward, Xu Guoqiang had almost no chance to speak.

It seemed that everything had been arranged, and he was just called over to show his face so that the person who was about to have surgery could get to know him.The surgeon in charge of the operation.

Xu Guoqiang didn't have to worry about preoperative talks, surgical instructions, and various signatures.

This kind of treatment that only the director of a major department could have was given to Xu Guoqiang, which made him feel that there was an invisible big hand pushing him forward.

As for whether there was a smooth road ahead or a deep abyss, Xu Guoqiang had no choice at all.

Seeing that the ward had already been cleaned up, Xu Guoqiang could only find an excuse and hurried back to the office to tell Xiao Chenguang the result.

"I guess when you went there, Shen Yiwei kept talking about the benefits of laparoscopic surgery, which is better than traditional surgery, less traumatic, and the elderly will not suffer. You are the person in charge of laparoscopic technology selected by the department and even the hospital..."

"Yes, he has been standing next to me, introducing how good my technology is to that person, the leader and pioneer of minimally invasive technology, and even the dean was saying good things on the side, as if he was afraid that I would tell them that this operation cannot be done as soon as I open my mouth."

"Then do you think the operation can be done?"

Xiao Chenguang's soul-searching question made Xu Guoqiang look worried.

At this point, the operation cannot be postponed, and he has to go ahead with it, but the key question is, can he do this operation?

The answer is yes, it definitely cannot be done.

The operation itself is very difficult, and coupled with the elderly's age, condition, and identity, Xu Guoqiang has no confidence at all.

It's really... pitiful.

Just when he was about to make a grand plan, he was deprived of the right to perform surgery. He could only do laparoscopic surgery. Now he has to be pushed out by the hospital to take the blame when something happens.

Xiao Chenguang patted Xu Guoqiang on the shoulder in the same tone as he used to comfort his doctoral students: "It's okay, don't think about it. You have to overcome difficulties one by one. I will help you with this matter. There is nothing to worry about."

Xiao Chenguang's words blew into Xu Guoqiang's heart like a spring breeze, making his eyes bright.

Yes, what should he worry about? The person sitting next to him is an expert in laparoscopy. With him on the stage, there is nothing that can't be handled.

"I... will apply for permission from the hospital now. It happens that the leaders of the hospital are all here. If they dare to question your coming from Yingcheng, I will quit at worst."

Xu Guoqiang stood up suddenly, and with a bang, he knocked over the trash can next to him, and the debris was scattered all over the floor, but he didn't care and rushed out of the office.

"Xiao Xiao, wait for my call later. Sorry to bother you."

Outside the office, Xu Guoqiang's voice drifted farther and farther away.
