Chapter 488 - 356: Intense Training, Multidisciplinary Surgery (Part 2)
When separating the right lobe of the liver, another problem arose. Since successfully completing the first autologous liver transplant and showcasing his skills in Jinling, this was the first time he felt such a high level of difficulty.
Watching one experimental subject after another die, Qin Feng was under unprecedented pressure.
With every failed surgery, he had to start over, gradually mastering the procedure, and the speed became faster and faster.
Unconsciously, the sky outside had already begun to lighten.
Fortunately, the system is very strong, and the time flow rate is only a fraction of the outside.
From liver resection and removal, separating the pericyst of the heart, upper part of the kidney resection, and embolization intervention, to vascular reconstruction.
Qin Feng almost covered all surgeries from at least 5 secondary departments, including hepatic surgery, cardiac surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, urologic surgery, and interventional radiology.
If this were a real independent surgery that got out, it would definitely shock not only the entire Beijing hospital but the national medical community.
Even globally, it’s unlikely to find anyone who could single-handedly complete such a highly complex multidisciplinary joint surgery.
Because surgery requires not just excellence but also time!
The patient may not withstand such a prolonged surgical process from a single surgeon; it’s more taxing on the anesthesiologist than the chief surgeon.
System: Patient death.
System: Patient death.
System: Patient death.
...
"Whew~ I can’t do it anymore."
"System, close the simulation operating room."
When Qin Feng successfully completed kidney resection and vascular blockage, he truly felt exhausted.
Even as an expert fully proficient in autologous liver transplant, he couldn’t withstand such an independent surgery that lasts over 20 hours.
Click!
Opening the study room, Qin Feng returned to the bedroom, took a shower, and found that Liu Yan’Er had already woken up.
After coming downstairs, Liu Yan’Er was in the kitchen making porridge, and upon seeing him, she walked over.
"You’ve been busy all night, do you want to rest for a while?"
"I’ll call you when breakfast is ready."
Qin Feng smiled, kissed her on the forehead, nodded, and went over to lie on the sofa.
He indeed needed a break; that night, patients died on the operating table 27 times, had they been real, they would have been sliced up by now.
Fortunately, he had overcome 3 out of the 5 most dangerous challenges.
As for the last two, Qin Feng already had a plan in mind, with the whole surgical approach becoming increasingly clear in his head.
This patient that even the hospital decided to abandon, he thought there was a chance.
At least now there’s a 50% certainty!
...
At the entrance of the Vice Director’s office in Peking Union Medical College Hospital administration building,
Knock knock knock~
"Come in."
Hearing the voice, Yuan Bin lifted his head, and upon seeing who entered, a smile appeared on his face,
"Ah, Qin Feng, what brings you here?"
"Dean Yuan, there’s something I want to ask you about."
"What is it? Sit down and let’s talk."
Yuan Bin gestured for him to sit, pouring them both a cup of tea.
He always had high hopes for Qin Feng because geniuses are the rarest in this world.
Moreover, in front of him, this one was exceptionally talented!
"Dean Yuan, I came to ask about the end-stage liver hydatid patient we reported in the emergency room yesterday."
"Oh, that patient, yes, I know."
Hearing his words, Yuan Bin nodded,
"Didn’t yesterday’s board meeting already make a decision? Do your best to treat, and the hospital will take responsibility for any issues.
Why? Do you have any ideas?"
Qin Feng slightly nodded.
Yuan Bin raised an eyebrow, his fingers unconsciously twitched, but his expression didn’t change.
"Let’s hear it."
"Dean Yuan, do you think this patient is still savable?"
Qin Feng didn’t immediately reveal his thoughts but instead asked in return.
He had spent quite some time in intensive care, and although Yuan Bin was a vice director, the intensive care department was within his responsibilities.
Moreover, Director Meng Dawei had previously talked to him about some of Vice Director Yuan’s history, especially his expertise in neurosurgery and hepatic surgery.
Meng Dawei was an expert in neurosurgery, making this pairing a powerhouse in intensive care.
With Yuan Bin’s capabilities in hepatic surgery, he was more than qualified to serve as a vice director in that department; hence Qin Feng sought him out.
"You want me to see?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Bin frowned slightly, falling into contemplation,
"I’ve carefully studied this patient’s condition, and hopes are slim. Once we start the surgery, it might not end well.
I personally don’t recommend surgery, but..."
He paused here, raising his head to stare at Qin Feng, with a cryptic smile forming at the corner of his mouth,
"Are you, young man, already having an idea? Is the surgical plan ready?"
Uh!
Qin Feng was taken aback at first upon hearing it, then quickly regained his composure, unable to help but smile.
Vice Director Yuan indeed knew him quite well, or rather, he had already guessed his intentions as soon as he stepped in.
"Dean Yuan, I do want to strive for the last opportunity to operate."
At this point, any further obfuscation seemed pointless, so Qin Feng spoke directly,
"I’ve already gained a comprehensive understanding of this patient’s condition. Although the surgery is very risky, it’s not impossible."
"Alright! Go on!"
Yuan Bin lightly flicked his sleeve, taking a sip from the teacup, appearing even more relaxed than before.
Half an hour later,
Qin Feng bid farewell to Yuan Bin, leaving the office with anticipation gleaming in his eyes.
Yes!
Yuan Bin agreed, though by the end, he was holding his breath, brows furrowed, with a solemn expression.
Because what Qin Feng told him was overwhelmingly detailed!
It was like the patient had already been dissected, with the lesion locations and specific surgical procedures outlined so comprehensively.
It was as if he was watching a movie, identical to archived surgical records.
But of course,
The hospital had already reported this patient, so whether or not to perform surgery isn’t of much consequence.
However, the last words Qin Feng said were incredibly tempting!
Regardless of this surgery’s outcome, it would be a rare experience for the hepatic surgery department at Peking Union Medical College Hospital.
If successful, it would be another monumental achievement in conquering barriers in hepatic surgery in Beijing or even across the country.
With Yuan Bin now as vice director, from his overarching perspective, it was all benefits, no downsides.
Hence, he wanted the surgical plan!
"Director Qin is back."
"Hello, Director Qin."
...
Back in the emergency department, Qin Feng hurriedly passed through the hall, heading straight to the office.
"Director, where did you go? Director Dong was just looking for you."
"Oh, alright, I know."
Qin Feng nodded in response, then looked at Zhang Qingquan,
"Right, Brother Quan, organize all reports of the patient with liver hydatid disease, and notify the directors and vice directors of the hepatic surgery, cardiac surgery, urologic surgery, and gastrointestinal surgery departments for a consultation in the afternoon.
You also need to work overtime with me tonight to prepare the surgical contingency plan."
Then he left again, leaving Zhang Qingquan standing there in a daze.
What did Qin Feng just say?
Prepare the surgical contingency plan?
Liver hydatid patient?
"Holy crap!"
The next second, he couldn’t help but curse, full of shock.
Director Qin is actually going to perform surgery on an end-stage liver hydatid patient?!
This news spread fast within the hospital, especially at lunchtime, reaching the ears of a few healthcare staff across various departments.
Some believed it, others did not.
But the most surprised weren’t the junior doctors, but rather the department heads who were notified.
Because they had received phone calls from the board meeting, fully supporting the emergency department’s consultation and demands for the patient.
This short statement already indicated their stance!
"Qin Feng, how much confidence do you have?"
In the director’s office, Dong Hao couldn’t help but ask, even as he smiled bitterly.
"50%."
Qin Feng thought for a while and gave a number.
Suddenly, Dong Hao’s breath caught, but he quickly recovered.
50%!
He hadn’t expected Qin Feng to be so confident!
Because this patient was practically given a death sentence, and even forcing surgery offered less than a 10% chance, like grasping at straws.
Yet now, Qin Feng was 50% confident!
For a chief surgeon, this certainly represents a high chance!
"Alright, since Vice Director Yuan is also coming, I won’t say much more."
Dong Hao nodded, sighed,
"Qin Feng, don’t push yourself too hard; do your best. Even if it fails, the emergency department has got your back."
...
PM,
In the emergency department conference room,
Half of Peking Union Medical College Hospital’s department heads or vice heads were gathered here, along with a vice director.
The ultimate goal was only one, to conduct the third consultation for the patient and discuss the surgical contingency plan.
Multidisciplinary joint surgery!
